6. Text or Notebook Page #:____
The underlined answer is wrong because _____
___________________
The correct answer is __ because ____________
If a pea plant contains a recessive allele for wrinkled seeds and a dominant allele for smooth seeds, the organism’s phenotype must be:
a. not really smooth or wrinkled seeds, a mixture of both traits.
b. wrinkled seeds.
c. half of the seeds are smooth and half are wrinkled.
d. smooth seeds.

7. Text or Notebook Page #:174-5
The underlined answer is wrong because the wrinkled phenotype is not dominant and all of the seeds will be the same.
The correct answer is d because the smooth phenotype is the dominant phenotype and will show.
If a pea plant contains a recessive allele for wrinkled seeds and a dominant allele for smooth seeds, the organism’s phenotype must be:

b. wrinkled seeds.
c. half of the seeds are smooth and half are wrinkled.
d. smooth seeds.

17. Take out NB- 102 Evidence of Evolution

18. The Four Lines of Evidence for Evolution are:
Fossil Record (this is similarity to and between ancient organisms)
Embryology (this is similarity in early development)
Homologous Structures (this is similarity in body structure)
DNA (this is similarity in chemical compounds)

19. #1: Fossil Record

20. #1: Fossils Water carries small rock particles to lakes and seas.
Dead organisms are buried by layers of sediment, which forms new rock.
The preserved remains may later be discovered and studied.

21. #1: Fossils
A fossil is a remnant or trace of an organism from the past.
Fossils form in sedimentary rock layers. The older layers on are on the bottom and the younger layers are on the top.
The fossil record provides a historical sequence of life on Earth.
There are gaps in the fossil record because most organisms do not fossilize.

22. #1: Fossil

23. #1: Fossil of Ancient Hyena-Dog vs. Modern Dog

24. #1: Fossils of Ancient Horses

25. #1: Similar Fossils in Different Locations

26. #2: Similarities in Early Development

27. #2: Similarities in Early Development
Embryos of many org. look similar!

28. #2: Similarities in Early Development
Means that embryos of vertebrates share similar genes!
But why do these organisms look different now?
This is where evolution comes in
Small mutations  little by little, organisms look different
 Evolution takes a LONG time!!!

29. #3: Similarities in Body Structure

30. #3: Homologous Structures
Limbs based on similar bone patterns!
Turtle
Alligator
Bird
Mammals
Typical primitive fish

31. #3: Similarities in Body Structure
When embryos are developing, cells that eventually develop into limbs are similar in some org.
But as embryos mature, the limbs grow into arms, legs, wings, and fins.

32. #3: Homologous Structures
Homologous structures = develop from the same body part, but that meet different needs
Means that embryos of vertebrates share similar genes!
But why do these organisms look different now?
This is where evolution comes in
Each limb was adapted differently for different organisms

33. #3: Homologous vs. Analogous
Function
Different
Same
Structure
Evolutionary origin

34. #3: Homologous vs. Analogous
Remember “intro to evolution” activity…with bat wings that looked like human fingers…instead of butterfly wings?
Homologous ? ?
Analogous

35. #3: Vestigial Structures (= traces of an organ or structure)

36. Traces of Snake “Legs”

38. #4: Similarities in Chemical Compounds

39. #4: Similarities in Chemical Compounds
All organisms (from bacteria to humans) share many of the same chemical compounds
All organisms have DNA to hold genetic info
Molecular biology analyses match fossils
=> MORE evidence to support evolution

40. #4: Similarities in Chemical Compounds
All org. have DNA!!!

41. #5: Geographic Distribution of Living Species

42. Geographic Distribution of Living Species
Beaver
Appearance is
very similar!
Beaver
Muskrat
Beaver and Muskrat
Coypu
Capybara
Coypu and Capybara
NORTH AMERICA
Muskrat
Capybara
SOUTH AMERICA
Coypu

43. The Four Lines of Evidence for Evolution are:
Fossil Record (this is similarity to and between ancient organisms)
Embryology (this is similarity in early development)
Homologous Structures (this is similarity in body structure)
DNA (this is similarity in chemical compounds)

44. What this all tells us…
All this tells us organisms evolved from a common ancestor.
Matches Darwin’s conclusion!!!
Living organisms evolved through gradual changes of earlier forms
=> DESCENT FROM A COMMON ANCESTOR!!!

45. Now match the words to the pictures that describe them
Word Sort
Find the words:
Cladogram
Ancestor
Evolution
Adaptation OR
Homologous/analogous
Fossil
Fossil record
Embryo
Now match the words to the pictures that describe them

46. Adaptation: an inherited trait helps an organism survive

47. Evolution: the process of how organisms gain adaptations over time

48. Ancestor: an organism from which others descended

49. Cladogram: displays evolutionary relationships among living species and their ancestors

50. Homologous and Analogous Structures:

51. Homologous and Analogous Structures:

52. Fossil

53. Fossil Record

54. Embryo
