Where do I live?• What type of
environment am I best “fit” for?– Hot/cold????– Wet/dry???
• Why
• Organisms have traits (GENES) that help them to survive in different environments.
44
A variation is a small change in a trait that makes an individual slightly different from other members
of its species.• All organisms in a
population are not the same. Variation/diversity exist.
• What causes this variation??
What is Fitness?• Fitness is a measure of
reproductive reproductive successsuccess. (survive long enough to reproduce)
• Reproductive Reproductive success:success: Having traits so that an organism is able to pass on genes onto the next generation (and in a way so that the next generation can also pass those genes on)
• Any trait that promotes promotes survivalsurvival — at least until one's reproductive years are over — increases fitness.
• Such traits are called adaptations.
55
GAME
What if an organism has a trait. that makes it impossible to live in
its environment?• The organism
will not survive.• If it does not
survive—it CANNOT reproduce.
• If it does not reproduce—its genes are not passed to the next generation.
66
What if the environment What if the environment changes?changes?•If they do not have the traits (genes)
that enable them to survive…they die, and DO NOT reproduce.
• If they do have the traits, then they survive…and reproduce. – SO… the next generation has more of the
“fit” traits for THAT environment.• The population then CHANGES!
– This is a very slow process….does not occur over night…many generations must past before any change in the population can be seen.
Natural Selection
77
Current Theory …
Natural Selection•Also know as “survival of the
fittest.”•Only certain members of the
population will survive and reproduce.
•Ones that survive are most suited to the environment—they
are the most fit!!.
88
survival of the fittest
•Artificial selection provides a model that helps us understand natural selection.People have been artificially selecting domesticated plants and animals for thousands of years. •Broccoli and brussels sprouts bear little superficial resemblance to their wild mustard relatives (left).
99Humans have been doing this for 1000s of years!
HumansHumans select and breed for certain traits.
Examples: The largest hog, the cow that gives the most milk, fastest horse, or cutest dog.
Dog Breeds Corn
Pigs
Where do NEW traits
come from?
1010
How do new traits arise?a) Mutations.
b) Sexual Reproduction.– Mixing of genes makes new
combinations– A combo of traits may be necessary
for survival……so… sexual reproduction and crossing over can create new combination of traits.
1111
Decent with modificationsOvertime
natural selection
produces
organisms
that have
different
structures,
established
different
niches, or occupy
different
habitats.
Organisms that were once the same have now grown “apart” and have become different organisms.
These changes increase a species’
fitness in their environment.
1212
•ADAPTATIONS (traits) that are that are favorablefavorable become more prevalent within that population.
•These traits will be passed onpassed on to the next generation.
•The GENE POOLGENE POOL of a population CHANGES in favor of the “FITTEST” phenotype & genotype!!!

• James HuttonJames Hutton -1785-Proposed that the Earth is millions of years old.
• Many land formations took millions of years to form.
• Known as the founder of modern geology.
History 2121
• Thomas Malthus -1798-• Proposed that populations outgrew
their food supplies, causing competition between organisms and a struggle for one species to survive against another
• This "struggle for existence" drives population change.
HistoryHistory 2222
Jean-Baptiste Lamark -18091809-
• Believed that all life forms evolved and that the driving force of evolution was the inheritance of acquired acquired characteristicscharacteristics.
• He believed that organisms changed due to the demands of their environment.

Charles Darwin
British Naturalist
1809 -1882
“I have called this principle, by
which each slight variation, if
useful, is preserved, by the
term Natural Selection.”
—Charles Darwin from "The Origin
of Species"
2828
•From 1831 to 1836
Darwin served as a
naturalist aboard the
H.M.S. Beagle on a British
science expedition
around the world.
•In South America Darwin
found fossils of extinct
animals that were similar
to modern species.
•On the Galapagos
Islands in the Pacific
Ocean he noticed many
variations among plants
and animals of the same
general type as those in
South America.

Summary of Darwin’s Summary of Darwin’s IdeasIdeas
1. Individual organisms differ, and some of this variation is heritable.
2. Organisms produce more offspring than can survive, and many that do survive do not reproduce.
3. Because more organisms are produced than can survive, they compete for limited resources.
4. Individuals best suited to their environment survive and reproduce most successfully.
3030
5. These organisms pass their heritable traits to their offspring. Other individuals die or leave fewer offspring.
6. This process of natural selection causescauses species to change over time.
7. Species alive today are descended with modification from ancestral species that lived in the distant past.
8. This process, by which diverse species evolved from common ancestors, unites all organisms on Earth into a single tree of life.

Speciation
In the physical world, natural barriers form and cause the breakup of populations to
form smaller populations.
Volcanoes, sea-level changes, and earthquakes are a few examples of
natural occurrences that affect populations
5252
•Overtime they can change so much that they become unable to breed as they adapt to their environment.
Speciation Mechanisms• Geographic Isolation
– Separated by bodies of water or mountains.
• Temporal Isolation– Reproduction takes place at different times of the year– Different Mating seasons
5353
•Behavioral Isolation–Populations are capable of interbreeding, but have different courtship rituals or other type of behavior.–Do not recognizes another species as a mating partner.
–Sexual Selection–Brightly colored male- drab female

• Some Central American Acacia species have hollow thorns and pores at the bases of their leaves that secrete nectar. These hollow thorns are the exclusive nest-site of some species of ant that drink the nectar. But the ants are not just taking advantage of the plant—they also defend their acacia plant against herbivores.
Bumblebees & the flowers they pollinate have coevolved so that both have become dependent on each other for survival.

Evolution at the species level is called microevolution.
It results from genetic variation and natural selection within a population of organisms.

Rates of Evolution

Gradualism Gradualism && Punctuated Equilibrium Punctuated Equilibrium• Two ways in
which the evolution of a species can occur.
• A species can evolve by only one of these, or by both.
CLIP
•Species with a shorter evolution evolved mostly by punctuated equilibrium, and those with a longer evolution evolved mostly by gradualism.
7272
GradualismGradualism•Very gradually, over a long time... Over a short period of time it is hard to notice. •Slow Changes•Small variations that fit an organism slightly better to its environment are selected for: a few more individuals with more of the helpful trait survive, and a few more with less of the helpful trait die.•Change is slow, constant, and consistent.
Punctuated equilibriumPunctuated equilibrium•change comes in spurts. There is a period of very little change, and then one or a few huge changes occur, often through mutations in the genes of a few individuals.
