Scala Naturae and Classification of Species • The Greek philosopher Aristotle viewed species as fixed and arranged them on a scala naturae • The Old Testament holds that species were individually designed by God and therefore perfect http://sxxz.blogspot.com/2005/02/what-species-is-best.html Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings 8 • Carolus Linnaeus interpreted organismal adaptations as evidence that the Creator had designed each species for a specific purpose • Linnaeus was the founder of taxonomy, the branch of biology concerned with classifying organisms Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings http://www.geneious.com/assets/img/sm/637/44/linnaeus2.png http://www.ouls.ox.ac.uk/__data/assets/image/0018/17055/Linnaeus_exhibit.jpg Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings 9 Ideas About Change over Time • The study of fossils helped to lay the groundwork for Darwin’s ideas • Fossils are remains or traces of organisms from the past, usually found in sedimentary rock, which appears in layers or strata (stratum) 化石的定義、形成與意義 http://www.treasure-hunting-team.com/Pictures/Fossil-Fish-1.jpg Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings http://en.ce.cn/World/gallery/200612/04/W020061204381616846811.jpg Fig. 22-3 Layers of deposited sediment 古生物學是以生物化石為 基礎,以研究生物親緣關 係的一種研究 Younger stratum with more recent fossils Older stratum with older fossils 10 • Paleontology, the study of fossils, was largely developed by French scientist Georges Cuvier Ò 古生物學----研究化石種之生物科學 • Cuvier advocated catastrophism, speculating that each boundary between strata represents a catastrophe 災變論 (Catastrophism) 1. 地質學理論。 2. 認為地球曾經遭受許多短暫的 災難。 3. 災變論中的某些思想演變為今 天如生物大滅絕或月球形成理 論之基礎。 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings http://www.paranoiamagazine.com/images/vulcan_impact.jpg • 造成生物集群滅絕的可能原因包括外星體撞擊地球、火山活動、 氣候變冷或變暖、海進或海退和缺氧等事件。 • 每次大的滅絕事件都能在相對短時期內造成80-90%以上的物種滅 絕。但是少數生命力強或逃逸能力佳的物種能夠忍受災變造成的 極端惡劣的環境,或逃離災區至異地避難而留存下來。 • 災變引起的環境變化也給新物種的誕生,創造了特殊條件和絕佳 機運。因此每次全球性滅絕事件後,都伴隨著生物的復甦發展。 • 根據化石記錄,地質歷史上曾發生過5次大的生物集群滅絕事件, 即奧陶紀末期、泥盆紀末期、二疊紀末期、三疊紀末期和白堊紀 末期的生物大規模絕滅。 • 白堊紀-第三紀滅絕事件因恐龍的滅絕而受到關注,不過二疊紀生 物絕滅事件卻是規模最大、涉及生物類群最多、影響最為深遠的 一次。 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings 11 • Geologists James Hutton and Charles Lyell perceived that changes in Earth’s surface can result from slow continuous actions still operating today Ò 地質學家認為地球表面處於持續變動之狀態 • Lyell’s principle of uniformitarianism states that the mechanisms of change are constant over time • This view strongly influenced Darwin’s thinking Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings • Uniformitarianism 均變說 1. 不能拿聖經內容敘述當作地質學上 的解釋。 2. 漸進式變化必然累積出相對結果。 3. Lyell 的學說被稱為是「均變」說, 但更貼切的形容是 steady-state, 也就是一種動態平衡。 4. Lyell 所承認的地球環境變化是局部 或區域性的,也就是此消彼長或具 有循環性。 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings http://www.rockingeology.com/sites/lnielson/_files/Image/project2.jpg 12

Research 達爾文的科學啟蒙與研究 • As a boy and into adulthood, Charles Darwin had a consuming interest in nature • Darwin first studied medicine (unsuccessfully), and then theology at Cambridge University • After graduating, he took an unpaid position as naturalist and companion to Captain Robert FitzRoy for a 5-year around the world voyage on the Beagle Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc.,

adaptations of plants and animals that inhabited many diverse environments Ò 在不同狀態的環境中動植物皆表現出持續的適應 • Darwin was influenced by Lyell’s Principles of Geology and thought that the earth was more than

species and natural selection but did not introduce his theory publicly, anticipating an uproar 物種源始與天擇 • In June 1858, Darwin received a manuscript from Alfred Russell Wallace, who had developed a theory of natural selection similar to Darwin’s • Darwin quickly finished The Origin of Species and published it the next year Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings 20 The Origin of Species 物種源始 • Darwin developed two main ideas: – Descent with modification explains life’s unity and diversity 1. 生命的相同與不同來自於經過改變的繼承 – Natural selection is a cause of adaptive evolution 2. 天擇為促成生物適應演化的原因 http://pctips4vn.com/wp-content/files/charles-darwin-the-origin-of-species.jpg Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings Descent with Modification 經過改變的繼承 • Darwin never used the word evolution in the first edition of The Origin of Species • The phrase descent with modification summarized Darwin’s perception of the unity of life • The phrase refers to the view that all organisms are related through descent from an ancestor that lived in the remote past Ò 所有生物承繼了祖先在過去歷程的改變 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings 21 • In the Darwinian view, the history of life is like a tree with branches representing life’s diversity • Darwin’s theory meshed well with the hierarchy of Linnaeus Ò生命發展的歷程就像是不斷延伸的樹枝 Ò不斷延伸的生命型態造就了物種多樣性 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

leave more offspring than other individuals Ò 個體承繼自親代的特徵成為在適應環境時的可能優勢 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings 27 • Inference 2: This unequal ability of individuals to survive and reproduce will lead to the accumulation of favorable traits in the population over generations Ò 持續累代後的表現能突顯特徵的價值與重要性 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings • Darwin was influenced by Thomas Malthus who noted the potential for human population to increase faster than food supplies and other resources Ò食物收成與其他因素牽動人口族群變動 • If some heritable traits are advantageous, these will accumulate in the population, and this will increase the frequency of individuals with adaptations Ò正向發展的遺傳特徵會增加其於群體中的出 現頻度,並增加個體在適應上的優勢 • This process

heritable characteristics survive and reproduce at a higher rate than other individuals • Natural selection increases the adaptation of organisms to their environment over time • If an environment changes over time, natural selection may result in adaptation to these new conditions and may give rise to new species Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings
