A cat, quick enough to snatch a bird successfully today, might not be speedy enough to catch the next generation of birds, because only the swiftest of yesterday’s birds remain to provide offspring. Type I: write a 5 line response to the statement above about how it relates to evolution

Process Box 2 Define Natural Selection. List four different kinds of ‘Natural Selectors’ and give an example of each: 1. 2. 3. 4.
“You do not carry your genes around as a way of reproducing yourself; your genes carry you around as a way of reproducing themselves”
MUTATIONS • A CHANGE IN THE DNA CODE • ARE NATURAL EVENTS • CAN BE A SOURCE FOR NEW TRAITS • THESE NEW TRAITS CAN BE ADAPTATIONS BECAUSE THEY MIGHT HELP THE ORGANISM SURVIVE IN ITS ENVIRONMENT
ARE ALL MUTATIONS BAD? -NO- BROWN COAT TO WHITE COAT BROWN COAT TO WHITE COAT HELPFUL __________________ HARMFUL The brown rabbit is more easily seen by predators. It will most likely not survive and reproduce. __________________ The white deer is more easily seen by predators. It will most likely not survive and reproduce.
What determines what a GOOD gene is or a BAD gene??? Environment (nature) An albino gene is BAD in a forest environment. The animal will die. An albino gene is GOOD in a snowy environment. The animal will flourish!!
Genetic variation in a population increases the chance that some individuals will survive. • Genetic variation leads to phenotypic variation. • Phenotypic variation is necessary for natural selection. • Genetic variation is stored in a population’s gene pool. • made up of all alleles in a population • allele combinations form when organisms have offspring
measures how common allele is in population • can be calculated for each allele in gene pool • Allele frequencies measure genetic variation.
Genetic variation comes from several sources. • Mutation is a random change in the DNA of a gene • Recombination forms new combinations of alleles • can form new allele • can be passed on to offspring if in reproductive cells • usually occurs during meiosis • parents’ alleles arranged in new ways in gametes
bald eagle migration Gene flow is the movement of alleles between populations. • Gene flow occurs when individuals join new populations and reproduce. • Gene flow keeps neighboring populations similar. • Low gene flow increases the chance that two populations will evolve into different species.
Genetic drift is a change in allele frequencies due to chance. • Genetic drift causes a loss of genetic diversity. • It is most common in small populations. • A population bottleneck can lead to genetic drift. • It occurs when an eventdrastically reducespopulation size. • The bottleneck effect isgenetic drift that occursafter a bottleneck event.
It occurs when a few individuals start a new population. • The founder effect is genetic drift that occurs after start of new population. • The founding of a small population can lead to genetic drift.
Genetic drift has negative effects on a population. • less likely to have some individuals that can adapt • harmful alleles can become more common due to chance Mechanisms of evolution Founder effect

SPECIES FORMATION Species – A group of living things that can breed with others of the same species and form ‘FERTILE’ offspring. Speciation – evolution of 2 or more species from one ancestral species Punctuated equilibrium – theory that speciation occurs suddenly and rapidly followed by long periods of little change Fertile – being able to reproduce by forming egg or sperm cells
SPECIES FORMATION New species are formed by: • Animals within the same species are separated by a barrier, (water, mountains, etc). • They live apart for thousands of years with different living conditions. 2. Natural selection takes place within the two separate regions. 3. Individuals with the desirable traits for their specific environment survive and reproduce. 4. Over time the two groups can become different species as they develop different adaptations. 5 Fingers of Evolution _________ __________________________ _________ _____________________ _______________ _____________________ _________
