  3. WHAT IS EVOLUTION? Adaptation: trait that helps an animal survive in its environment Trait: characteristic or feature of an animal

  4. 1: GENE FLOW WHAT MAKES EVOLUTION HAPPEN? There are 4 forces of evolution: Gene Flow Genetic Drift Mutation Natural Selection 2: GENETIC DRIFT

  6. NATURAL SELECTION

  7. WHAT MAKES EVOLUTION HAPPEN? Gene flow Genetic drift Mutation Natural selection NATURAL SELECTION

  8. Why do physical anthropologists study evolution? • To learn more about human adaptations. • To learn where we came from and what our ancestors were like. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER: knowing our traits helps prepare us for future health problems or environmental changes. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

  9. Your Activity: Evolution Coloring Page You will use your knowledge of evolution to color and draw animals that may be in different environments than they’re used to. At the end of the class, you’ll share your new species with the other clans.
