Part 1: Haedon Eon
3
13.7bya: Universe 4.6bya: Earth
4
~10 million species inhabit Earth today
6
4.6bya: Geologic/Atmospheric Conditions No Water No Oxygen No Fun
7
3.9 – 3.5bya: Simple life formed Prokaryote Genetic Material Cell Metabolism Replication But How?
8
Miller-Urey Experiment Simulate early Earth Amino acids formed http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iahBQolXQH8
9
John Sutherland Experiment Simulate early Earth Nucleic acids formed http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/evolution/origins-life.html
10
Liposomes: Lipids form a bilayer in water (cell) Protobionts: Enzymes break down glucose (energy) Divide in response to osmosis (reproduction)

12
RNA became awesome at: Surviving Reproducing (self replicating) Mutating
13
Part 2: Archean eon through Cambrian Period
14
~3.5bya: Stromatolites (Cyanobacteria) Produced Oxygen
16
~2.1bya: Complex cells with organelles But How?
17
Prokaryotic mitochondria & plastids were engulfed DNA (small, circular chromosome) Double membrane http://highered.mcgraw-hill.com/sites/9834092339/student_view0/chapter4/animation_-_endosymbiosis.html
18
~1.5bya: Protists
20
~530mya: Cambrian Explosion

22
Part 3: Ordovician Period through Quaternary Period
25
~450 mya: Ordovician Extinction 90% of all species died Major glacial event
26
~475-400mya: Land Plants, Fungi, & Insects ~375mya: Tiktaalik 1 st terrestrial tetrapod Amphibians & Reptiles
27
~250mya: The Great Dying 96% of all species died Asteroids & Volcanoes
28
~200mya: Mammals & Dinosaurs ~150mya: Birds
29
~65mya: K/T Extinction 75% of all species died Giant asteroid slammed into Mexico
32
TODAY!!! Up to 140,000 species go extinct each year Habitat Destruction, Hunting, Pollution…
34
Earth will be hit by another asteroid in the future! 99942 Apophis 2036?
35
The diversity of life today is a result of evolution through natural selection over the course of 3.5by.
36
What does that mean?
