Agenda: Warm-Up Review
March 29, 2018 EQ: How do species evolve due to natural selection? Warm-Up: Which organisms have four limbs? Which have hair? Agenda: Warm-Up Review
2
Explain the relationship between: -genetics -natural selection -evolution
3
Sect 1- Change Over Time Adaptation Species Evolution
4
Evidence of Changes Over Time
Fossils What type of rocks? Where do you find the newest fossils? Oldest? Extinction Relative dating What evidence does the fossil record show?
5
Absolute/Radiometric dating
Half-life C-14 N Rock formation 100 g 0 g 1 (5,730 y) 50 g 2 (11, 460 y) 25 g 75 g 3 (17,190 y) 12.5 g 87.5 g Carbon-14 decays into Nitrogen Half-life of Carbon-14 is 5,730 years
6
Absolute Dating When determining the age of Older fossils, scientists use Uranium isotopes. Uranium Decays Into Lead.
7
Rates of Evolution Punctuated Equilibria vs. Gradualism (Microevolution) (Macroevolution)
8
Evidence of Ancestry and Evolution
What bones show whales are related to land mammals? DNA Embryology Homologous structures Fossils
9
How Does Evolution Happen?
Natural Selection -overproduction -variations -competition -successful reproduction ***Finches! ***Peppered Moths! What causes variations? How is genetics related to evolution? When do 2 populations evolve into 2 different species?
