Evolution Part 2 CHAPTER 11 AND 12
2
Genetic Variation A population with a lot of genetic variation has a wide range of phenotypes This allows the population to have a better chance of survival and adaptation All the different phenotypes are stored in the populations Gene Pool Gene pool increases with mutations and recombination How often an allele shows up in the gene pool is called the allele frequency
3
Gene Flow Gene flow : The movement of alleles from one population to another occurs when individuals move among populations Can cause and increase in genetic variation Lack of gene flow can cause two populations to evolve into their own species
4
Genetic drift Changes in allele frequencies due to chance One allele will decrease in frequency and disappear while another allele increases in frequency and becomes fixed or the norm Bottleneck effect : genetic drift that occurs after and event decreases the size of the population drastically.
5
Genetic drift Founder effect: genetic drift that happens after a small number of individuals colonize a new area.
6
Speciation The rise of 2 or more species from one existing species Can happen due to isolation of multiple types Reproductive: member can no longer mate successfully Behavioral: difference in courtship or mating behaviors Geographic: physical barriers to reproduction Temporal: timing prevent reproduction
7
Patterns of evolution Convergent evolution: toward similar characteristics of unrelated species Divergent evolution : closely related species evolve in different directions
8
Patterns of evolution Coevolution: two or more species evolve in response to changes in each other
9
Patterns of evolution Punctuated equilibrium: fossil record shows periods of evolutionary bursts followed by long periods of stability Adaptive radiation: the quick evolution from one ancestor into many diverse species
10
Geologic time scale Era : tens to hundreds of millions of years and has a least 2 periods Period : tens of millions of years. Associated with a rock system Epochs : smallest units of geologic time and last several million years.
12
The time scale is made up of four main divisions called… _________________ time _________________ era These eras are further subdivided into ____________ according to the _________ of organisms living during that time Precambrian Paleozoic Mesozoic Cenozoic periods type
13
Precambrian Time First and __________________ division Comprises _____% of earth’s history Scientists have discovered __________________ fossils of ____________________ from this time longest 87 microscopic prokaryotes
14
The first autotrophs were probably ____________________, meaning that they made food while using the energy stored in chemical _________ Chemosynthetic prokaryotes may have been similar to modern day __________________, which can survive in ___________ environments like hot springs and deep sea ________ chemosynthetic bonds archaebacteria harsh vents
15
Approximately _______ billion years ago, _____________________ autotrophs evolved For example, scientists have found fossils of marine cyanobacteria (blue green) in mounds called _____________________ cyanobacteria 2.5 – 3.5 photosynthetic stromatolites Your text’s date is too late
16
What gas do photosynthetic organisms release into the atmosphere? This would allow ______________ cells to exist and the ________________ layer, consisting of _______ to form oxygen aerobic ozoneO3O3
17
The Evolution of Eukaryotes About _____ billion years ago, the first eukaryotes appeared. A eukaryotic cell is much _____________ than a prokaryote is, has a complex system of _____________ membranes, and its DNA is enclosed within a ________________. Section 2 The Evolution of Cellular Life Chapter 12 1.5 larger internal nucleus
18
Almost all eukaryotic cells have _____________________, while eukaryotic plant cells have _____________________ So how did eukaryotic cells acquire all of these extra organelles? Scientists hypothesize that ancient ____________ began working together in _______________ relationships, and eventually became ________________ upon one another mitochondria chloroplasts prokaryotes symbiotic dependent
19
For example, a large prokaryote may have ingested a smaller _________________ prokaryote that started acting as a ____________________ They also may have ingested photosynthetic bacteria, which started acting as ________________ aerobic mitochondrion chloroplasts
20
This idea is called the theory of __________________ and was proposed by Lynn ________________ in the 1960s “Endo” means ______ and refers to smaller prokaryotes moving into larger ones endosymbiosis Margulis “in”
21
Endosymbiosis The following four observations support the theory of endosymbiosis 1. Mitochondria are about the same _______ as most eubacteria, and chloroplasts are the same size as some cyanobacteria. 2. Mitochondria and chloroplasts have _________________ DNA similar to the DNA found in bacteria. Section 2 The Evolution of Cellular Life Chapter 12 size circular
22
3. Mitochondria and chloroplast both have _______________ that are similar to bacterial ribosomes. 4. Like bacteria, chloroplasts and mitochondria _____________ by simple ___________. This replication takes place __________________ of the cell cycle of the host cell. Section 2 The Evolution of Cellular Life Chapter 12 ribosomes reproducefission independently
23
Multicellularity Towards the ________ of Precambrian time, multicellular life evolved While the unicellular body plan has been very successful, multicellularity has several __________________ Section 2 The Evolution of Cellular Life Chapter 12 end advantages
24
Multicellular life was first present in Kingdom __________________ Most protists are unicellular _________________, but some multicellular organisms, like __________________ are classified as protists Protista eukaryotes seaweed
25
Paleozoic Era The Paleozoic era began with the ______________ period This era is marked by an explosion of ___________, or the evolution of many ______________ As a result the Cambrian period is often called the Cambrian _________________ Cambrian diversity species explosion
26
Many unusual marine organisms lived in the shallow Cambrian _________ Their fossils have been found in an area of Canada called the _______________ Shale sea Burgess
27
The ______________ period followed the Cambrian period… Many different animals continued to abound in the seas, including __________ At the end of this period, the _____ of five ______ extinctions occurred, meaning that a ___________ number of different species became extinct at the same time Mass extinctions are observable in rock layers when fossils _________________ from one layer to the next Ordovician fish 1st mass large disappear
28
The Ozone Layer Earth’s ________ gradually became a _____________ place to live because the ozone layer protects the earth from the sun’s _____________________ rays The first multicellular organisms to live on land appeared _____ ______________ years ago Section 3 Life Invaded the Land land safer ultraviolet 430 million
30
Mesozoic Era Consists of three periods _______________ At the beginning of this era, reptiles with complex ____________ and legs positioned __________ their bodies gave rise to _______________ around the same time _______________ evolved Jurassic Triassic Cretaceous teethbeneath mammals dinosaurs
31
Mammals and Birds Birds may have evolved from _____________ dinosaurs during or after the Jurassic period. After the dinosaurs became extinct, birds and mammals became the _________________ vertebrates on land After mass extinctions, competition temporarily _________________, allowing different organisms to survive and evolve flying dominant decreases
33
Cenozoic Era ____________ and shortest era so far Cenozoic Era Tertiary Quarternary 651.8 The modern human species, __________ ___________ may have appeared as recently as ___________ years ago Present Homo sapiens 200,000
