Evolution review
Highlights of what you need to remember:
LEQ: What experiments led to the development of
the scientific explanation for the origin of life?
LEQ: How can we use endosymbiosis to support
the theory of the origin of eukaryotic cells.
• Experiments from Pasteur and Redi
• Experiments from Miller & Urey, Margulis, Oparin and Fox
• Terms – Biogenesis, Abiogenesis, primordial, endosymbiosis and
endosymbiotic theory
Review foldable
LEQ: What are the major causes and effects
of natural selection?
• Darwin’s development of the theory of natural selection
• Conditions for natural selection to occur
• Examples of natural selection: Galapagos finches, bacteria resistance
to antibiotics, insect resistance to pesticide, etc.
• Speciation
• Review foldable
LEQ: How do mutation and genetic recombination
impact genetic variation?
LEQ: What influence do genetic drift and gene
flow have on evolutionary change?
• Review DNA mutation and protein synthesis.
• Describe how mutation and genetic recombination increase genetic
variation.
• Review foldable for causes of evolution
• Mutation, Natural selection, genetic drift, founder effect, bottleneck effect,
migration, gene flow.
• Review foldable
LEQ: How can we analyze the various supporting
evidences for the scientific theory of evolution?
•
•
•
•
•

•
Fossil record – also radiometric dating
Comparative anatomy
Comparative embryology
biogeography
molecular biology
observed evolutionary change
Molecular clocks
(review graphic organizer)
Terms – analogous structures, homologous structures, vestigial structure,
embryology, molecular clock
Comparative embryology
Vestigial structures are structures that no longer have a use.
Ie. Molars in vampire bats (consume a liquid diet)
LEQ: How does brain size, jaw size, language, and
use of tools show evidence for trends in hominid
evolution?
• Observe skulls,
jaws and skeletal
variations
• Compare/contrast
modern humans
with their hominid
ancestors.
• Terms- prehensile
tail, bipedal,
hominid
LEQ: What evidences led to the modern
classification system over time?
LEQ: How are evolutionary relationships used in
determining the classification of organisms?
• Linnaean system and the new changes due to the knowledge of DNA
• Identify the domains, and their characteristics, the kingdoms and
characteristics. Include type of cell, autotroph/heterotroph, and
reproduction type.
• Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species
• Terms – Binomial nomenclature, phylogeny, taxonomy, domain, genus,
species, cladogram, clade, taxon, add node and speciation event.
• Review animal kingdom cladogram
