Theories on Evolution• Where do you think the diverse species of
today came from?• Many people have tried to explain Earth’s
biodiversity.• More than 2000 years ago, the topic of
biodiversity was discussed by Greek philosophers.

• 1700’s- a Swiss naturalist published a theory to explain biodiversity.
![Page 8: Scientists of Evolution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/568162aa550346895dd32b1f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
•His theory:• Periodic catastrophes
had affected the entire planet, and that after each one, life began anew.
• -First to use the word evolution to describe the development of diverse life forms

Jean Lamarck (a French naturalist)• Challenged
Bonnet’s view.
- reasoned that fossils of extinct animals were the ancestors of those living today.

constantly strive to
improve themselves.

Lamarck cont.2) Most used
body structures develop whereas unused structures waste away.
![Page 13: Scientists of Evolution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/568162aa550346895dd32b1f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Lamarck cont.• 3) Once a structure
is modified by use or disuse, the modification is inherited by the organism’s offspring.
• “The inheritance of acquired characteristics”

EX:His hypothesis explains the evolution (change over time) of the giraffe’s long neck. When short-necked giraffes stretched their necks to reach leaves high on tree, their necks became longer. The longer neck was then passed on to the offspring.

Actually…
• Giraffe’s long necks are the result of sexual selection…. But we’re getting ahead of ourselves!
![Page 18: Scientists of Evolution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/568162aa550346895dd32b1f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Wrong, but…• Lamarck is often used as
an example of an incorrect theory of evolution.
• Even though he was wrong about the heritability of acquired traits, he was a top-notch naturalist who made many careful and accurate observations.
![Page 19: Scientists of Evolution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/568162aa550346895dd32b1f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• Lamarck published some of his ideas on evolution in 1809
• The same year Charles Darwin was born.
• His work had a strong influence on Darwin.
![Page 20: Scientists of Evolution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/568162aa550346895dd32b1f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• Lamarck’s hypothesis about “inheritance of acquired characteristics” was finally disproved by German biologist
August Weisman with experiments in the 1870’s.
![Page 21: Scientists of Evolution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/568162aa550346895dd32b1f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• By using mice Weismann concluded that changes in
an individual during its lifetime do not affect the offspring.
• He concluded that only the germ-line cells (gametes) carry information to the next generation
"901 young were produced by five generations of artificially mutilated parents and yet there was not a single example of a rudimentary tail or any other abnormality of the organ“. -A. Weisman
OUCH!

How can gametes be damaged?Discuss with your neighbor. Come up with at least
2 examples.

• 1831 Charles Darwin takes 5-year a trip around the world on a ship called the HMS Beagle.
![Page 25: Scientists of Evolution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/568162aa550346895dd32b1f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Gradual geological changes over long periods of time, influence organisms.
Not everything can survive and have
offspring, so there must be winners and losers in
each generation.This led to Darwin’s theory of NATURAL
SELECTION!

On the Origin of Speciesby Means of Natural Selection
• After 20 years of research, Darwin published On the Origin of Species in 1859.
• It sold out on pre-order before it reached the book seller.
• It is widely accepted as one of the most important science books ever written.

If Darwin was alive today, what kind of text message would he send Lamarck?
