Charles Darwin = The Father of Evolution Wrote “The Origin of Species” in 1859
Natural Selection Process:
Artificial Selection
“Darwin’s Finches”
Homologous Structures: common ancestor w-similar structures
Analogous Structures: similar function, different ancestors
Vestigial Structure: structure in a present day organism that no longer serves its purpose
Mimicry: resemble another (dangerous) organism
Camouflage: blend with surroundings
Natural Selection = “Survival of the Fittest”
