SBI3U Evolution - Unit in Review Review material in the following sections of the textbook and focus on the specific topics listed below: -7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, 7.6 -8.1, 8.2, 8.3 Key terms from the textbook are indicated in bold face. History of Evolutionary Thought: (7.1, 7.2, 7.4, 7.5) -describe the contributions of the following scientists on modern theories of evolution: -Georges Cuvier (catastrophism), Charles Lyell (uniformitarianism) -Jean-Baptiste Lamarck (inheritance of acquired characteristics) -Charles Darwin (theory of evolution by natural selection) -survival of the fittest, adaptation -Thomas Malthus (competition within populations) Evidence of Evolution: (7.3, 7.4, 7.5) -describe evidence observed and/or gathered by Charles Darwin that lead to his theory of evolution by natural selection & explain what inferences can be made from each -biogeography -fossil record -unique species present on the Galapagos Islands -homologous features -analagous features -vestigial features -outline the specific observations and inferences that led to Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection Mechanisms of Evolution: (7.1, 8.1) -describe evolutionary mechanisms & how they affect the development & extinction of various species (e.g., evolution of antibiotic resistance in bacteria, high oxygen carrying capacity of Tibetans living at high altitudes, etc.) -natural selection -artificial selection -sexual selection -genetic drift -genetic bottlenecks -founder effect -mutations (neutral mutations, harmful mutations, beneficial mutations) -explain the process of adaptation of individual organisms to their environment -describe the patterns of natural selection (directional selection, stabilizing selection, disruptive selection) & give examples of each Speciation & Patterns of Evolution: (8.2, 8.3) -define the concept of speciation, explain the process by which new species are formed -reproductive isolation (reproductive isolating mechanism, prezygotic mechanisms, postzygotic mechanisms) -patterns of speciation (allopatric speciation, sympatric speciation) -explain and give examples of adaptive radiation and coevolution -contrast divergent evolution and convergent evolution Evaluation: Unit Test Artificial Selection Assignment Debate Date: TBA Friday, February 17th, 2017 TBA Categories: KU TI √ A √ C √ √ √ √
