  1. AGENDA March 24 • Objective: Examine evidence to support the age of the Earth and the history of life. • 1. Chapter 17 • Study your notes every day • Stop in for extra help if you need it before tests • 2. Chapter 15 and 16 Tests • All Grades in Genesis • 3. Review and Homework

  2. The History of Life Chapter 17

  3. 17-1 The Fossil Record • Paleontologists study fossils. • Fossil Record provides evidence of the history life on Earth. • Infer structure of organisms • What they ate • Environments they lived in • Fossils appear in a particular order. • Some only present in older rocks • Some only in newer rocks

  4. Fossil Formation • Recall that fossils form in sedimentary rock. • Weather breaks down rock into small particles. • Particles carried by water where they settle to the bottom. • Pressure and chemical processes preserve remains into rock. • Why is the fossil record an incomplete record of life on Earth?

  5. Fossil Evidence • Identify and compare anatomical structures between fossils and living organisms. • Age of a fossil is determine by two techniques. • 1. Relative Dating • 2. Radioactive Dating

  6. Relative Dating • Determines age of fossil by comparing its placement with other fossils in various layers of rock. • Oldest layers on bottom • Index fossils are easily recognizable for comparison. • Existed for a short period of time • Wide geographic range • Found in specific layers of rock in different locations.

  7. Radioactive Dating • Use of radioactive decay to assign ages to fossils. • Some elements are radioactive • Decay is measured as HALF-LIFE or the time for half of the radioactive atoms in a sample to decay

  8. Radioactive Dating • Age of a fossil based upon amount of remaining radioactive isotope it contains. • Different radioactive elements have different half-lives. • Carbon 12  most common and does not decay • Carbon 14  radioactive and decays into N-14 • Has half-life of 5730 Years • More C-12 compared to C-14 = older fossil

  9. Carbon-14 Decay

  10. Question of the DAY March 25 • Which of the following cannot be determined through fossils? • A. the approximate age of the organism • B. other organisms closely related to the fossilized organism • C. anatomical structure of an organism • D. physiological processes of the organism

  11. AGENDA March 25 • Objectives: Investigate factors that led to the formation of Earth and early forms of life. • 1. Question of the Day • 2. Continue Chapter 17 Notes • 3. Complete the Guided Reading Packet • 4. Chapter 16 Tests • 5. Review and Homework

  12. Geologic Time Scale • Represents evolutionary time. • Precambrian Time  • Eras  • Periods • Cenozoic – Age of Mammals • 65 mya to present

  13. Eras and Periods • Precambrian Time • Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Cenozoic Eras • Eras are further subdivided into Periods • Periods range from 10s of millions of years to 2 million years

  14. 17-2 Earth’s Early History • Birth of planet took place over 100 million years • Collisions with other large objects • Produced tremendous amount of heat • Most dense elements formed Earth’s core • Decay created a molten rock core • Moderately dense elements cooled into Earth’s crust. • Least dense formed first atmosphere

  15. SECTION 17-2 NOTES • NOTES are in the Guided Reading Packet. • Answer Key is posted on my webpage.

  16. First Organic Molecules • Miller and Urey’s Experiment – 1950s • Atoms do not assemble themselves into complex molecules or living cells today. • Oxygen is very reactive • See FIGURE 17-8 PAGE 424 • Suggested how mixtures of organic compounds necessary for life could have been formed from simpler compounds

  17. Question of the DAY March 26 • Radioactive Uranium-232 has a half-life of approximately 70 years.

  35. 17-4 Patterns of Evolution • What is macroevolution? • 1. Extinction • Most researchers look for a single massive event – Asteroid striking Earth at Chicxulub Crater, Mexico • Extinction of dinosaurs • Ecosystems collapse due to natural factors (earthquakes, volcanoes) • Organisms still able to compete • Food webs destroyed Disrupts energy flow

  37. DO NOW March 31 • When Earth first began to form, Oxygen was not present in its atmosphere. Hydrogen was the most abundant element in the solar system. Now, there is very little H gas present in the atmosphere and only about 1% of it is found in the Earth’s mass. Propose an explanation as to why there is so little Hydrogen present now.

  38. Adaptive Radiation • adaptive radiation:multiple species evolve from a single species • also known as divergent evolution • Darwin’s Finches

  39. River Monsters • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OuYT5gaO67A

  40. Convergent Evolution • convergent evolution: different species evolve to have similar appearances and behaviors • Different groups of mammals or dinosaurs • Different locations • Different times • Similar environments

  41. Coevolution • Process in which two species evolve in response to changes in each other over time • An evolutionary change in one organism  • A corresponding change in another organism • Plant defense vs. feeding insect

  42. Punctuated Equilibrium vs Gradualism • punctuated equilibrium: involves long periods of stability that are interrupted by episodes of rapid change • gradualism: evolution occurs slow and steady over a long period of time

  43. Developmental Genes and Body Plans • Recall the function of HOX Genes. • Changes in genes can produce changes in growth and differentiation during embryonic stages of life. • Turning genes OFF • Changes in timing of cell differentiation and gene expression • Long vs short legs • Single winged vs double winged
