What is biological evolution?
• It’s the change in inherited characteristics of a population from generation to generation.
• What are some process that lead to biological evolution?
• 1.• 2.• 3.• 4.• 5.

Mutations may:

• Natural Selection
Relies on variation of individuals within a species. Genetic diversity is key!
Those orgs with traits that make them better fit or adapted survive well, reproduce more and pass these helpful traits on to their offspring.
Peppered moth = classic example.

• Speciation (evolution of a new species)
1. Geographic isolation of two populations of the same species
2. They each evolve separately
3. Eventually differences accumulate
![Page 7: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Reproductive isolation can occur due to mutations too.
![Page 9: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
MigrationDuring migration different selective pressures may be encountered.
Populations may become separated Genetic DriftChanges in gene frequency of a population due to chance - not due to being better adapted
May greatly impact small populations Dangerous for rare and endangered species

Basic Concepts of Biodiversity
• 3 major concepts:
1. Genetic diversity
2. Habitat diversity:
![Page 12: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
3. Species diversity: a. Species richness –
b. Species evenness –
c. Species dominance -
![Page 13: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Hwk
• Shannon-Weiner Biodiversity Index• Read and do sample problems.• Show all work and solve for H’• Also: Calculate Evenness for each problem:
– Evenness:– Formula = H’ / ln S– S = number of different species – (Absolute evenness = 1)
![Page 14: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

![Page 15: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Species habitat terms:
exotic = introduced
endemic = native
cosmopolitan - very broad distribution but need similar habitat
ubiquitous = found almost everywhere even very different habitats
![Page 16: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
How many species on Earth?
• Uncertain
• Prior to fogging study: Range =
1 - 3 million
• After study: 10 -100 million!
![Page 17: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Interactions Between Species
• 3 kinds:
1. Competition: negative for both
![Page 18: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
2. Symbiosis: both benefit
• It is very common; exists amongst most plants and animals
![Page 19: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• 3. Predation - parasitism: positive for one and negative for the other
![Page 20: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• Exclusion Dominance and Diversity: The
Competitive Principle
• Competitive exclusion = 2 species with exact same requirements cannot coexist in the same habitat. They will compete and the more fit one will win out and persist

• Niche: how species co-exist.
• A habitat is where an org lives as compared to what it does to survive, which is its’ ecological niche
• Species that require the same resources can coexist only if they can utilize them under different env. conditions (different ecological niches).
![Page 23: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
• Species that require the same resources can coexist only if they can utilize them under different env. conditions (different ecological niches).
![Page 24: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
• Niches can be measured:
• The range of niche a species will occupy with no competitor is called its’ fundamental niche
• The range in which it actually lives, if it is having to compete, is called its’ realized niche

Environmental Factors That Influence Diversity!!
• Diversity varies from place to place
• Generally, greater in lower latitudes
![Page 27: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• Ecological gradient: the change in relative abundance of a species over an area (ie: change in elevation in the mtns.)
![Page 28: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Fig 7.10 Change in the relative abundance of a species over an area or a distance is referred to as an ecological gradient.
![Page 29: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
• Factors that increase or decrease diversity:• Increase diversity:
1. Physically diverse habitat
2. Moderate disturbance
3. Small variation in env. conditions
4. High diversity at one trophic level increases diversity of another level
![Page 30: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
• Decrease diversity
1. Environmental stress
2. Extreme environmental conditions
3. Severe limitation of an essential resource
4. Extreme disturbance
5. Recent exotic species
6. Geographic isolation (island effect)
![Page 31: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
• Humans greatly affect diversity :
– Development and industry
– Favoring one species over another
– Manipulating environments
• Species diversity in an area may change over time, seasons, decades, centuries...
![Page 32: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The Geography of Life• The kinds and numbers of species varies
greatly from place to place. These large-scale global patterns are called biogeography
![Page 33: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
• Biotic Provinces
• Six “realms” were identified in 1876 based on the types of animals found there:
• (Remember: classification of orgs are based on evolutionary relationships or similar characteristics)
![Page 34: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Fig 8.3 The major vegetation realms are also based on genetic factors.
![Page 35: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
• Continental drift explains the origin of these provinces as land masses periodically unified (genetic mix and spread of species) and then separated (isolation and speciation)
![Page 36: Ch 7 8 ppt 2010 student notes](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052508/5595404f1a28ab2c6d8b4653/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
• Biomes:
• Each continent has diverse climates and habitats so diversity of species is high
• Biome = a kind of ecosystem
• Similar environmental conditions (selective pressures) lead to evolution of orgs similar in form and function but not genetic heritage or internal make-up.

• Divergent evolution occurs when a pop. is separated and evolves in isolation from main groups, often under different selective pressures. They have common ancestry and retain some common characteristics of their ancestors. (ex: marine mammals)

• Island Biogeography– Generally observe adaptive radiation: species
evolve by divergent evolution as they separate into smaller groups, often on different islands, each adapting to a more specialized role (niche)
– Species diversity and islands:
