Is evolution always positive? The Dodo Bird?
no, species can be extinct
yes, species are always better
no, species can adapt
yes, Darwin said so
Darwin was a naturalist who observed species all around the world. He came up with two main theories:
descent with modification; modification by natural selection
vestigial features; descent with modification
modification by natural selection; homologous features
natural selection and biogenesis

natural selection and biogenesis
helps you to get food, helps you to avoid predators, helps you to find a mate
Adaptation
Adoption
Natural Selection
Articificial Selection
Organisms that are best adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and reproduce
Breeding the best with the worst
Modification by selection
Modification with homologous features
Breeding two different species
How do fossil records show evidence of evolution?
organisms never truly die off
organisms have homologous features
organisms have vestigial features
organisms that were once here no longer exist
Life Starts over and over (like mold on bread) :

Not all organisms produce identical offspring. This is called
isolation
breeding
integration
variation
An anatomical, physiological or behavioral change that improves a population's ability to survive
variation
adaptation
isolation
inbreeding
There is only so much space, food and mates to go around
variation
competition
inbreeding
isolation
a group of interbreeding organisms that have similar traits
species
genus
phylum
gang
The ability of a new species to arise out of an existing species
fertilization
variation
speciation
interruption
Gradualism
change in species slowly over a long period of time
change in species rapidly over a long period of time
An event occurs that forces change gradually
An event occurs that forces change to happen
Species remain the same for most of of history... then an event occurs that forces change to happen
gradualism
interbreeding
equilibrium
punctuated equilibrium
This diagram shows
punctuated equilibrium
gradualism

punctuated equilibrium
breeding
mass extinction
All can cause variation in genes EXCEPT

divergent success
The process of two or more related species becoming dissimilar is called
convergent evolution
divergent evolution
dissimilar evolution
similar evolution
