Regents Biology by Natural Selection Evolution…

Regents Biology What is Evolution?  Evolution  changes in living organisms over time  explains how modern organisms have descended from ancient organisms Evolution! Why do we accept this as a Scientific Principle?

Regents Biology What do we know?  There are many different creatures on Earth  How do we know this? Diversity of Life on Earth OBSERVATION How did all these creatures come about? What accounts for all this biological diversity? Biodiversity of Life on Earth

Regents Biology What do we know?  All creatures have common characteristics  How do we know this? DNA cells Unity of Life on Earth How could all of life have the same basic features? OBSERVATION

Regents Biology What do we know?  The Earth is very old  How do we know this? Radioactive Dating of the Rocks Radioactive Dating of the Rocks TESTING & OBSERVATION Life is very old! What’s happened to life during those billions of years?

Regents Biology What do we know?  Creatures have changed over time  How do we know this? Fossil Record OBSERVATION

Regents Biology What has the fossil record shown us?  Many creatures that lived in the past don’t exist today Origin of new species OBSERVATION

Regents Biology What has the fossil record shown us?  The creatures alive today haven’t always been around Different species lived in the past OBSERVATION

Regents Biology What has the fossil record shown us?  Many creatures in the past looked like living ones we see today “Family Tree” Relatives with similar, but not the same traits “Family Tree” Relatives with similar, but not the same traits OBSERVATION

Regents Biology Quick review, so far….  Many different species alive today  All life shares common characteristics  The Earth is very old  Life is very old  Life has changed over time  The changes have been little changes over long periods of time Evolution But how does this work?

Regents Biology What do we know?  Populations are a mix of different individuals  How do we know this? OBSERVATION Variation

Regents Biology What do we know?  Organisms have more offspring than the environment can support  Not everybody survives  How do we know this? OBSERVATION Over-production Competition

Regents Biology How does that work? Variation Over-Production & Competition Natural Selection Nature selects the ones that “fit” the environment better … survive & reproduce Adaptation

Regents Biology What determines survival?  Natural Selection  traits that help individuals survive  survive predators  survive disease  compete for food  compete for territory  traits that help individuals reproduce  attracting a mate  compete for nesting sites  successfully raise young Survival & Reproduction of the Fittest Adaptations

Regents Biology Survival & Reproduction of the fittest not the strongest… not the bravest… not the fastest… not the biggest… …the fittest! the traits that help an organism fit the environment better to survive & reproduce the traits that help an organism fit the environment better to survive & reproduce Adaptations

Regents Biology DNA Evolution explains Unity & Diversity  Only evolution explains both  unity of life  similarities between all living things  diversity of life  wide variety of different creatures on Earth

Regents Biology Survival & reproduction of the fittest bug…
