Name __________________________ Unit 7 Evolution WHAT I KNOW WHAT I LEARNED What is EVOLUTION? How do GENES make EVOLUTION possible? What is NATURAL SELECTION? What is GEOGRAPHIC ISOLATION and how does is affect SPECIATION? 1 Unit 7 Content Expectations B5.2a Describe species as reproductively distinct groups of organisms that can be classified based on morphological, behavioral, and molecular structures. B2.4A Explain that living things can be classified based on structural, embryological, and molecular (relatedness of DNA sequence) evidence. B5.2b Explain that the degree of kinship between organisms or species can be estimated from similarity of their DNA and protein sequences. B5.1f Explain, using examples, how the fossil record, comparative anatomy, and other evidence supports the theory of evolution. B2.4d Analyze the relationships among organisms based on their shared physical, biochemical, genetic, and cellular characteristics and functional processes. B5.1c Summarize the relationships between present-day organisms and those that inhabited the Earth in the past (e.g., use fossil record, embryonic stages, homologous structures, chemical basis). B5.3e Explain how changes at the gene level are the foundation for changes in populations and eventually the formation of a new species. B5.2c Trace the relationship between environmental changes and changes in the gene pool, such as genetic drift and isolation of subpopulations. B5.3C Give examples of ways in which genetic variation and environmental factors are causes of evolution and the diversity of organisms. B5.3B Describe the role of geographic isolation in speciation. B5.1A Summarize the major concepts of natural selection (differential survival and reproduction of chance inherited variants, depending on environmental conditions). B5.1B Describe how natural selection provides a mechanism for evolution. B5.1d Explain how a new species or variety originates through the evolutionary process of natural selection B5.1e Explain how natural selection leads to organisms that are well-suited for the environment (differential survival and reproduction of chance inherited variants, depending upon environmental conditions). B2.4B Describe how various organisms have developed different specializations to accomplish a particular function and yet the end result is the same (e.g., excreting nitrogenous wastes in animals, obtaining oxygen for respiration). B2.4C Explain how different organisms accomplish the same result using different structural specializations (gills vs. lungs vs. membranes). B5.3A Explain how natural selection acts on individuals, but it is populations that evolve. Relate genetic mutations and genetic variety produced by sexual reproduction to diversity within a given population. B5.3d Explain how evolution through natural selection can result in changes in biodiversity. 2 B5.1g Illustrate how genetic variation is preserved or eliminated from a population through natural selection (evolution) resulting in biodiversity. B3.4B Recognize and describe that a great diversity of species increases the chance that at least some living organisms will survive in the face of cataclysmic changes in the environment. B5.3f Demonstrate and explain how biotechnology can improve a population and species. Unit 7 Big Idea Evolution provides a ______________________________ for the history of life on Earth.
