Evolution: Isn't Evolution Just a Theory?
_______________ _______________ _______________ _______________ Carolus Linnaeus, 1735 Georges Buffon, 1749 Erasmus Darwin, 1749 Jean-Baptiste Lamarck, 1809
2nd to classify organisms based on
their _________traits
Proposed that species shared
________________ancestors
Proposed that more complex life forms
arose from _______ complex life forms
less
Proposed that changes in an
environment caused changes in
________________organisms
CATASTROPHISM GRADUALISM UNIFORMITARIANISM
Theory proposed by _______________________.
States that ______________________________ such as ___________ and _______________________________ have shaped ________________ and caused species to become ___________________ in the process.

3. CAN BE A SOURCE FOR NEW TRAITS
4. THESE NEW TRAITS CAN BE ADAPTATIONS BECAUSE THEY MIGHT HELP THE ORGANISM SURVIVE IN ITS ENVIRONMENT

BROWN COAT
TO WHITE COAT
The white deer is more easily seen by predators. It will most likely not survive and
reproduce.
BROWN COAT TO WHITE COAT
The brown rabbit is more easily seen by
predators. It will most likely not survive and
reproduce.

Species – A group of living things that can breed
with others of the same species and
form ‘FERTILE’ offspring.
Fertile – being able to reproduce by
forming egg or sperm cells
________________________________________
________________________________________
New species are formed by:
1. Animals within the same species are separated by a barrier, (water, mountains, etc).
a. They live apart for thousands of years with different living conditions.
2. Natural selection takes place within the two separate regions.
3. Individuals with the desirable traits for their specific environment survive and reproduce.
4. Over time the two groups can become different species as they develop different adaptations.

Supraorbital index : Using a metric ruler,
1. Multiply the value of BC by 100 ____
2. Divide the result by AC ____
Acurate measurements are taken to compare fossils.
•A line is drawn over the eye socket from front to back of skull
•A line is drawn under the eye socket from front to back of skull
•A line is drawn from the highest point on the top of skull to lower line.

Evolution: Why Does Evolution Matter Now?
1. COMPETITION: __struggle among living things to get their needs______________________________
2. EVOLUTION : _change in hereditary features in a group of organisms over time_________________
3. EXTINCT : _life-form that no longer exists_____________________________________________
4. FERTILE : ___can produce viable egg and sperm___________________________________
5. FOSSIL : __remains of once living things from the past_____________________________________
6. NATURAL SELECTION _something in a living thing’s surroundings will determine if it will survive__
7. NEW-WORLD MONKEY _tails that can grasp and nostrils that open upward__________________
8. OLD-WORLD MONKEY __cannot grasp with tails and have downward nostrils_________________
9. OPPOSABLE THUMB: _thumb that is positioned opposite of other fingers_________________
10. PRIMATE: _have eyes that face forward and thumbs that grasp_____________________________
