WHAT SHOULD I KNOW ABOUT EVOLUTION (Use: Chapter 15 & 2 sets of Notes) Be detailed because I may let you use this in some way on the test!!! Who is Charles Darwin and what happened on his voyage on the H.M.S. Beagle that led to his ideas about biodiversity and how species change? To what place did the Beagle travel that most influenced Darwin’s ideas? Who are the following and what role did each play in Darwin’s Theory of Evolution? James HuttonThomas MalthusJean-Baptiste LamarckCharles LyellAlfred Wallace- What was Lamarck right about? What was incorrect about Lamarck’s hypothesis? How did Wallace’s ideas about evolution influence Darwin’s feelings about publishing his own theory? What book did Darwin publish that explained his ideas and proposed a mechanism for evolution? What kinds of evidence support Darwin’s theory? Be able to explain Darwin’s Theory of Evolution by natural selection by explaining each of the following: Fitness? Adaptation? Natural variation? Struggle for existence? “Survival of the fittest”/Natural selection? Descent with modification? Common descent? How does the geographic distribution of different animals support Darwin’s theory? What are homologous structures? What are Vestigial organs? How do these structures support Darwin’s theory? What is Divergent evolution? Give an example. Convergent evolution? Give an example. How/why do mutations affect small populations? How is camouflage different from mimicry? Give an example of each. How are these examples of adaptations? Distinguish between Stabilizing, direction, and disruption selection. Give an example of each. Draw a picture of the graphs that depict this. Explain how natural selection affects allelic frequency (think of the bean lab). Why does being in genetic equilibrium mean no evolving is occurring?
