A comment
• Many people including professional
scientist are skeptical of evolution or
outright reject it.
• I am not attempting to change your mind if
you are in that group.
• I am attempting to explain an idea that is
widely accepted by the scientific
community and is supported by extensive
evidence. 2

Evolution
• Broad definition: Change
• Organic evolution: Change in life forms

Organic Evolution
• How life has changed through time.
• How all life is interrelated through ancestry.
• Fossils: tangible record of changes in species

Linnaean Classification Scheme
• System for classifying (grouping)
organisms---usually by form
• Grouped by
– shared similar characteristics, that is to say,
– they have the same forms and look very
similar.

![Page 6: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Why classify organisms?
• Avoid complete chaos
• Determine which have a common ancestor
-or-
• Who is related to whom
6
![Page 7: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Caution
• Not all similarities mean a close ancestral
relationship
• Often similarities come from adapting to a
similar environment

![Page 8: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Linnaean Classification Scheme
• DNA confirms relationships—has changed
some old ideas
• We find relationships with ancestors by
looking at the number of differences in
amino acid sequences which make up
DNA

Lamarck—An Idea Rejected
• Inheritance of acquired
characteristics
• Organisms adapt—a
giraffe stretches neck to
reach high leaves
• Giraffe can pass the longer
neck to young
• No—It doesn’t happen
this way.

Evolution
• Idea evolved slowly
• Many people before Darwin suggested
evolution
14
![Page 15: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Darwin had read
Thomas Malthus • Malthus published: Essay on the Principle
of Population (1798)
• A key idea: “…favourable variations would
tend to be preserved, and unfavourable
ones to be destroyed.”
• Survival of the fittest.
15
![Page 16: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Evolution
• Darwin on the H.M.S. Beagle (1831-1836)
– Observed bird populations on isolated islands
– Recognized different species but closely
related species (finches)
– Recognized the influence of environment on
differing species.
– Published On the Origin of Species (1859)
16
![Page 17: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Evolution
• Basic idea: Species descended from prior
species
• Debated and accepted within a decade.
Very remarkable accomplishment.
• Controversy came when humans were
included in the theory
17
![Page 18: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Note:
• Darwin never said:
Humans descended from monkeys.
• Darwin said:
Apes and humans have a common
ancestor. 18
![Page 19: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Natural Selection
• “survival of the fittest”—the most suitable
for the environment (not the strongest!)
• This applies to individuals and to species
• Variations
– Some individuals able to survive better and
reproduce more abundantly
– Traits (forms) dominated
19
![Page 20: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Keys to Natural Selection
• Variation within a population among
individuals.
• The variation must be inheritable.
• Differences in reproductive success based
upon those differences.
20
![Page 21: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Artificial Selection
• Humans decide which
individual will breed with
which.
• Examples:
– Dog breeding
– Race horse breeding
– Cattle breeding
– Turkey breeding
21

What are the two things that
every living thing does?
• Eat & reproduce
• Pass on your traits:
– Eat better than your competition (survive)
– Reproduce more
23
![Page 24: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Changes • Changes in organisms or populations are
often due to changes in the environment.
• The ones that survive are those that can
adapt and tolerate the environmental
changes.
• The successful trait must already be
available in the gene pool. (Discuss)

Genes, DNA & RNA
25
![Page 26: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Genetics
• Gregor Mendel
– Published in 1865
– Unknown to Darwin
– Experimented with peas
– Demonstrated that traits from
each parent were inherited by
offspring
– Traits passed by genes
1822-1884
Austria-Hungary
26
![Page 27: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Genes
• Genes are paired—one set from each parent
– Note: Sexual reproduction produces more variation than asexual reproduction.
• Genes do not mix (Key point!)
– Some are dominant and obvious
– Others are recessive and hidden
• Passing of genes produces variation in a population
27
![Page 28: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
DNA: deoxyribonucleic acid
• Genes are sections on the DNA.
• Allele: part of the gene that passes on the
trait to offspring.
• DNA molecules: basic hereditary units
• DNA: information for making proteins out
of amino acids
• Proteins make cells
28
![Page 29: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
DNA
• Each nucleotide
contains one of the
following:
– Adenine A
– Thymine T
– Cytosine C
– Guanine G
• These nucleotides
determine the
characteristics of an
organism 29
![Page 30: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Mutations—How Change Happens
• Alterations in DNA
• Genes can move from one part of the DNA
to another
• Amino acids are substituted for others: the
code changes
30
![Page 31: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
What can cause mutations?
• Radiation (even ultraviolet radiation)
• Cosmic rays and gamma rays
• Chemicals
• Random changes in the genetic code
31
![Page 32: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Are mutations good or bad?
• Comments from class.
• Discussion
• What do we call bad mutations in
humans?
• Bad—”birth defects”
• Good—helpful traits
• Neutral—makes no difference
• The call—How well does the organism
adapt to the environment?
32
![Page 33: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
RNA—Two Types
• DNA—inside the cell
• RNA—Passes through the cell wall
– mRNA—Messenger RNA: Carries message
from DNA to site where proteins are formed
(outside the cell)
33
![Page 34: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
RNA—Two Types
• DNA—inside the cell
• RNA—outside the cell
– tRNA—Transfer RNA: Ferries amino acids to
sites where they are assembled into proteins
(outside the cell)
34

Speciation
• The development of new species
• A change in the gene pool
• Isolated populations diverge, that is,
change and eventually cannot interbreed
• Now have a new species
35
![Page 36: Lab 2A--Life on Earth - El Paso Community College 1402 Lab...Patterns of Evolution •Divergent evolution –A single species evolves into two distinct species, each with distinctive](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022523/5b371b8a7f8b9aad388de707/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
What is a species?
• Species—
– Group of organisms
– Similar structure, function and development
– Able to produce fertile offspring (in nature)
• Examples of non-species:
– Mule (female horse and male donkey)
– Liger (tiger and lion—only happens in zoos)

Patterns of Evolution
• Divergent evolution
– A single species evolves into two distinct species,
each with distinctive traits
• Adaptive radiation
– Many new species evolving different traits to live in
different environments
• Convergent evolution
– Unrelated species exhibit similar adaptations when
they inhabit similar environments (wings: birds and
bats)

How fast is evolutionary change?
• Phyletic gradualism
– Small changes over a long period of time
• Punctuated equilibrium
– Very distinct changes over a very short period
of time with little change in between these
“bursts”

Organization of Life
• Old way: Based upon observable traits
that arise from genetic processes.
• Now: A clade—a group of organisms that
share a common ancestor based upon
DNA analysis, not just observable forms.
