4 Evolution of Populations

5 Vocabulary: Adaptation Competition Decent with modification Evolution
Habitat Natural selection Overproduction Population Species Struggle for existence Variation

6 Elements of natural selection
All species have genetic variation. Since organisms generally produce more offspring than can be supported by the environment, individuals within a species frequently complete with each other for survival. – Competition The environment itself presents many challenges for an organism's survival. - Struggle for existence Survival of the fittest occurs – Adaptation The traits of the organisms best suited to a certain habitat tend to become more frequent in a population over time. – Decent with modification

7 Distribution of Traits
Natural selection can affect the distributions of phenotypes in any of three ways: directional selection stabilizing selection disruptive selection

8 Distribution of Genes

9 Vocabulary Gene pool Genetic diversity Mutations Bottleneck effect
Emigration Founder effect Gene flow Genetic drift Immigration

10 Variation and Gene Pools
When scientists determine whether a population is evolving, they may look at the sum of the population’s alleles, or its gene pool. This diagram shows the gene pool for fur color in a population of mice.  Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

11 In genetic terms, evolution is any change in the relative frequency of alleles in a population.
The two main sources of genetic variation are mutations and the genetic shuffling that results from sexual reproduction.

12 What is genetic drift? A random change in allele frequency
Genetic drift may occur when a small group of individuals colonizes a new habitat. Individuals may carry alleles in different relative frequencies than did the larger population from which they came.

13 The Bottleneck Effect is a type of genetic drift that occurs randomly when a population’s size is dramatically reduced by a disease outbreak, natural disaster, habitat destruction, or overhunting.

14 The founder effect affects small populations, In this case, a few individuals from a population leave (emigrate) and colonize a new areas.

15 Factors Affecting rate of Evolution
Lower Rate of Evolution Faster Rate of Evolution Increasing Rate of Evolution Large population size Stable environment Low mutation rate Slow reproduction rate Small population size Changing environment High mutation rate Fast reproductive rate

16 Fossil Record

17 FOSSILS shape the ideas of evolution
The fossil record provides evidence about the history of life on Earth. It also shows how different groups of organisms, including species, have changed over time.

20 Theory of Evolution -- evidence
1. Fossils 2. Homologous structures 3. Vestigial organs 4. DNA 5. Embryos 6. Direct Observation

21 1. Fossil Evidence shows…..
-similarities between extinct animals and living animals -earth’s layers, and species that lived at each time

22

23 2. Homologous structures – parts of the body that are similar, but have different functions
All forelimbs of vertebrates have the same pattern of bones

24 3. Vestigial Structures – these are organs or parts that seem to have no function
Whales have pelvic bones that do not attach to legs

25 4. Biochemistry and DNA When comparing the DNA of one species to another, more similarities are found in species that are more closely related. Lion photo credit: ucumari Tiger photo credit: digitalART2

26 5. Embryological Development
Embryos of different species develop in almost identical ways. Human fetus at 8 weeks

27 6. Direct observation of species change
Bacteria become resistant to antibiotics Wolves were bred over many generations to become dogs (artificial selection)

29 Classification of Organisms

30 Biologists have identified and named about 1.5 million species so far.
Natural selection and other processes have led to a staggering diversity of organisms. Biologists have identified and named about 1.5 million species so far. They estimate that 2–100 million additional species have yet to be discovered. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

31 Why Classify? In the discipline of taxonomy, scientists classify organisms and assign each organism a universally accepted name. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

32 Kingdom Cell type Cell number Obtain food Examples Archaebacteria (ancient bacteria) Prokaryote Unicellular Chemosynthesis Autotroph Thermophils – Heat-loving bacteria Halophils- Salt-loving bacteria Methanogens Eubacteria (true bacteria) Heterotroph Cocci (round), baccilla (rod), spirillum (spiral) Protista Eukaryote Heterotroph and autotroph Euglena, Paramecium, Ameba Fungi Unicellular and Multicellular Absorptive heterotroph Yeast, Mushroom, Truffles, Bread mold Plantae Multicellular Photosynthesis- Grass, Oak tree, rose Animalia multicellular Ingestive Man, cat, dog

33 Linnaeus’s System of Classification
What is Linneaus’s system of classification? Linnaeus's seven levels of classification are—from largest to smallest — Kingdom King Phylum Phillip Class Came Order Over Family From Genus Germany Species Safely Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

34 Linnaeus's System of Classification
Grizzly bear Black bear Giant panda Red fox Abert squirrel Coral snake Sea star Linnaeus’s hierarchical system of classification uses seven taxonomic categories. This illustration shows how a grizzly bear, Ursus arctos, is grouped within each taxonomic category. Only some representative species are illustrated for each category above the species level.
