Pytanie English Odpowiedź English
when and why poeple started explaining things by evolution
rozpocznij naukę
It changed in 17th century - due to development of knowledge, possibility of traveling to foreign lands
example of structural smiliarities between species
rozpocznij naukę
five digits on each had and foot in primates; why do we walk on two legs etc
geology in evolution
rozpocznij naukę
Bones from older geological strata differ from those in more recent strata -> change in organic structure over time
emryology in evolution
rozpocznij naukę
Similarities in embryological development development across different species, even dissimilar ones
Lamarck
rozpocznij naukę
18-19th century; He noticed that species aren't static, that there are some similarities in species
2 major causes of species change in lamarck's theory
rozpocznij naukę
1. Natural tendency for each species to progress toward a higher form 2. Inheritance of acquired characteristc (black will have black child)
Lamarck's mechanism for change:
rozpocznij naukę
Believed animals must struggle to survive, leading to the secretion of fluid by nerves. This fluid was thought to enlarge the organs involved in the struggle
Darwin
rozpocznij naukę
He developed the theory of evolution, proposing that all living things share a common ancestor and change through natural selection
Darwin figured out that giraffe's neck became longer because those with longer necks survived better. So there were no fluids, just genetics
NATURAL SELECTION
rozpocznij naukę
THE DIFFERENTIAL SURVIAL AND REPRODUCTION OF INDYVIDUALS DUE TO DIFFERENCES IN PHENOTYPE
Favourable variations persist, unfavorable ones decline. Repeated over generations, this process lead to the development of new adaptations
• 3 essential concepts: (so that natural selection could exist, there need to be):
rozpocznij naukę
1. Variation 2. Inheritance 3. Differential reproductive success
Variation
rozpocznij naukę
Diversity of traits within population
Inheritance
rozpocznij naukę
The transmission of certain traits from parents to offspring
Differential reproductive success
rozpocznij naukę
a. The uneven ability of individuals with specific traits to survive and produce offspring, influencing evolutionary change
Sexual dismophism
rozpocznij naukę
sometimes sexes differ significantly in size and structure
Sexual selection
rozpocznij naukę
the preference by one sex for certain characteristics in individuals of the other sex
Two primary means by which sexual selection operates:
rozpocznij naukę
1. Intersexual selection 2. Intersexual competition
Intersexual selection
rozpocznij naukę
one sex displays a certain trait or behaviour with the goal of attracting and mating with the opposite sex (mantis)
Intersexual competition
rozpocznij naukę
occurs between members of the same sex. They compete for the opportunity to mate with the opposite sex (lions)
Genetic drift
rozpocznij naukę
random changes facilitated by processes like mutations, founder effect, genetic bottlenecks
Mutations
rozpocznij naukę
random hereditary changes in DNA
Founder effect
rozpocznij naukę
A small population establishes a new colony, and the genetic makeup of the founders differs from the original population (chitas)
Genetic bottlenecks
rozpocznij naukę
Population shrinkage due to random events like earthquakes, results in survivors carrying only a subset of the original population's genes
