    1. Pre-Darwinian Evolution

    2. Evolution in Greece Some philosophers argued all things originated from water or air All things descended from one central, guiding principle

    3. Evolution in Medieval Times All living things came into existence in unchanging forms Spontaneous generation – living things come from inorganic matter (i.e. frogs come from slime)

    4. Immanuel Kant Based on similarities between organisms, they may have came from one ancestral source

    5. Carolus Linnaeus Father of Modern Taxonomy Found that hybridization in plants produced new species! However, he did not believe in undirected evolution

    6. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck Organisms have a desire to change Use and disuse of body parts – organisms could alter their shape or size according to its use Acquired characteristics were inherited – he knew NOTHING about genes.

    7. Charles Lyell The Earth is very very very old! The Earth has changed over time

    8. Thomas Malthus Babies are born at a faster rate than people are dying Resources are limited Poverty, famine, and disease resulted from overpopulation

    9. BACTERIA LAB Writeup

    10. Title An informative title that represents the lab DO NOT WRITE “BACTERIA LAB”

    11. Introduction A paragraph about the background of E.coli bacteria and ampicillin. State the questions that you want to be answered. What is the importance of the experiment?

    12. Hypothesis Hypothesis from Day 1 and Day 2 should be written out. Hypothesis should be in the form of: If…then…

    13. Materials Make a list of all the materials used in the lab for all three days.

    14. Procedure Just copy and paste the procedure from the lab worksheet (it will be posted online). Adjust the procedure so that it matches exactly what you did in the lab.

    15. Results and Data Include ALL observations. You should organize your observations neatly! Pictures of your plates are helpful.

    16. Conclusions/Analysis Reject or support your hypotheses. EXPLAIN why your hypotheses are rejected or supported. EXPLAIN the connection of this experiment with evolution and antibiotic resistance. Discuss at least four possible errors that could have occurred during the experiment.
