2 types of evolution
Macroevolution• Changes beyond the species
• Examples: - Biogeography- Fossil record- Homology- Biochemical similarities- Chromosomal similarities
Microevolution• Changes within a gene pool
• Examples: - Kettleworth moths- Insect resistance- Drug resistance

Let’s do Macroevolution first
![Page 4: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
1. Biogeography: the geographic distribution of species
• Why does the Arctic have polar bears and Antarctica penguins?
![Page 5: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
• Why are most of the species on islands more closely related to species on the nearest mainland.
• The answer is that modern species are where they are
because they evolved from ancestors that inhabited those regions.
• In the case of island species, inhabitants must have migrated from the original, mainland area where the species originated.
![Page 6: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
On a global scale, we now know that the distribution of species is based upon continental drift.

How are fossils formed?• Preservation in sap • Mineral replacement• Preservation in ice• Traces e.g. footprints• Molds
2. Fossils
![Page 8: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
I. Fossils
• Fossils are the preserved remains of ancient organisms.
![Page 9: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• The succession of fossil forms is congruent with the theory of descent with modification.
• Ex. Extinct intermediate forms in whale evolution.
![Page 10: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Ambulocetus natans in action. A reconstruction of an early close cousin of whales.
![Page 11: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Other intermediate forms present in the fossil record:
![Page 12: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
![Page 13: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• Why is it true that fossil fishes predate fossil amphibians which predate fossil reptiles which predate fossil mammals?
![Page 14: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
3. Comparative Anatomy
![Page 15: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
a. Homologous Structures
![Page 16: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
b. Vestigial organs
• Vestigial organs are remains of a structure that was functional in some ancestor but is no longer functional in the organism in question.
• For example, humans have a tail bone (the coccyx) but no tail. The presence of vestigial structures is explained by the common descent.
![Page 17: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Why does a whale have a pelvic structure?
![Page 18: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
4. Comparative Embryology:
• A comparison of the early stages of their embryonic development may show similarities that suggest a common ancestry.
• For example, the early embryos of fish, birds, pigs and humans closely resemble one another.
![Page 19: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Comparative Embryology
![Page 20: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
5. Molecular Biology/Biochemical Similarities
• DNA, RNA, amino acids and proteins have all been used to determine evolutionary relationships between organisms
• For example: Cytochrome C (in ETC) is used by organisms ranging from yeast to humans
• The greater the differences in the DNA bases that code for the cytochrome C enzyme, the longer the time since two organisms shared a common ancestor.
![Page 21: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
![Page 22: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
• The numbers is equal to the number of amino acid differences between human hemoglobin and others.

Chromosomal Similarities
![Page 25: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Why don’t pesticides work very long?
Entomologists say 500 crop pests have already evolved resistance to conventional insecticides.
![Page 27: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Insecticide Resistance
• Currently over 500 pests are resistant to 1 or more common insecticides
• Through mutations the insect does not produce enzyme which interacts with the poison
![Page 28: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Drug Resistance
• H1N1, MRSA, HIV drug resistance
• Caused by decades of excessive and unnecessary use of antibiotics
In 1943, penicillin was introduced as an antibiotic to protect against Staphylococcus infections.By 1946, a number of strains of Staphylococcus demonstrated resistance to penicillin. Today, as many as 80% of Staphylococcus aureus are resistant to penicillin.

Kettleworth – Biston Betularia
![Page 30: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
• Prior to the industrial revolution, there was a much higher frequency of the light variety of the peppered moth, which, were adapted to the light colored lichen on tree bark.
• However, industrial pollution in the 1800’s began to kill the lichen, turning the tree bark into a dark color.
• Now, the number of dark variety of peppered moth increased i.e. were naturally selected.
![Page 31: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
So how fast can you mutate?
• Animals and plants are about 1/100,000 mitotic cells
• Bacteria reproduce by binary fission and mutate about the same….but they multiple every 20 minutes!!!
A single bacteria can reproduce so fast that after 36 hrs, there wouldenough bacteria to cover the Earth 1 foot deep.
![Page 32: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Sexual Reproduction
• Genetic variation in sexual reproduction increases
• No way to estimate amount of genetic variation
• Sexual reproduction promotes genetic variation
![Page 33: 2 types of evolution](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062222/568161b4550346895dd17eb7/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
The genetic structure of a population. Some basic definitions:
• A population is a group of individuals belonging to the same species.
• A species is a group of populations whose individuals can successfully interbreed.
• A gene pool is the total genes in a population a any one time. It consists of all alleles at all gene loci in all individuals of the population.
