Theory of Evolution

Case study: Anole lizards of the Caribbean
ongoing examples of evolution among living organisms can be observed, recorded and tested
In convergent evolution organisms that are not closely related resemble each other because they have responded to similar environments

Natural selection of the Anole
Twig dwelling species evolved independently (not related) on each island -convergent evolutioneach island had closely related twig dwelling, trunk dwelling and ground dwelling forms - divergent evolution

Adaptive Radiation
A new population in a new environment ( like an island) will undergo divergence until populations fill the various parts (niches) of the environment

Artificial Selection
Dog breeding was an example used by Darwin to explain the idea of selection
DNA analysis today supports the idea that humans first selected domestic dogs from a wolf population about 15,000 years ago.

CoevolutionWhen two or more species have evolved adaptations to each other’s influence.
Examples: bacteria evolving a capsule to resist your immune system
antibiotic resistance
Animal toxins and prey resistance
