Question for Thought
•Earth has millions of other kinds of organisms of every imaginable shape, size, and habitat.
•This variety of living things is called biological diversity.
•How did all these different organisms arise?
• How are they related?

Darwin’s Theory of Evolution
Evolution, or change over time, is the
process by which modern organisms
have descended from ancient
organisms.
A scientific theory is a well-
supported testable explanation of
phenomena that have occurred in the
natural world.

Voyage of Beagle
Dates: February 12th, 1831
Naturalist: Charles Darwin
Ship: H.M.S. Beagle
Destination: Voyage around the world.
Findings: evidence that propose a
revolutionary hypothesis about how life
changes over time

How do you think Darwin
came up with his theory?
![Page 9: PowerPoint Presentation - EVOLUTION · parthenogenesis. Ideas that Shaped Darwin’s ... PowerPoint Presentation - EVOLUTION Author: Jeanine Stright Created Date: 4/9/2012 8:22:58](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021512/5b1680f97f8b9a776d8c4e3e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Patterns of Diversity
Darwin visited Argentina and Australia which
had similar grassland ecosystems.
those grasslands were inhabited by very
different animals.
neither Argentina nor Australia was home to
the sorts of animals that lived in European
grasslands.
![Page 10: PowerPoint Presentation - EVOLUTION · parthenogenesis. Ideas that Shaped Darwin’s ... PowerPoint Presentation - EVOLUTION Author: Jeanine Stright Created Date: 4/9/2012 8:22:58](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021512/5b1680f97f8b9a776d8c4e3e/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Patterns of Diversity
Darwin posed challenging questions.
Why were there no rabbits in Australia,
despite the presence of habitats that
seemed perfect for them?
Why were there no kangaroos in England?
![Page 11: PowerPoint Presentation - EVOLUTION · parthenogenesis. Ideas that Shaped Darwin’s ... PowerPoint Presentation - EVOLUTION Author: Jeanine Stright Created Date: 4/9/2012 8:22:58](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021512/5b1680f97f8b9a776d8c4e3e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Living Organisms and Fossils
Darwin collected the preserved remains
of ancient organisms, called fossils.
Some of those fossils resembled
organisms that were still alive today.
![Page 12: PowerPoint Presentation - EVOLUTION · parthenogenesis. Ideas that Shaped Darwin’s ... PowerPoint Presentation - EVOLUTION Author: Jeanine Stright Created Date: 4/9/2012 8:22:58](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021512/5b1680f97f8b9a776d8c4e3e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Living Organisms and Fossils
Others looked completely unlike any creature
he had ever seen.
As Darwin studied fossils, new questions
arose.
Why had so many of these species
disappeared?
How were they related to living species?

The Galapagos Island
The smallest, lowest islands were
hot, dry, and nearly barren-Hood
Island-sparse vegetation
The higher islands had greater
rainfall and a different assortment
of plants and animals-Isabela-
Island had rich vegetation.

The Galapagos Island
Darwin was fascinated in particular by the land tortoises and marine iguanas in the Galápagos.
Giant tortoises varied in predictable ways from one island to another.
The shape of a tortoise's shell could be used to identify which island a particular tortoise inhabited.

Jean Baptiste Lamarck
1744-1829
![Page 24: PowerPoint Presentation - EVOLUTION · parthenogenesis. Ideas that Shaped Darwin’s ... PowerPoint Presentation - EVOLUTION Author: Jeanine Stright Created Date: 4/9/2012 8:22:58](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021512/5b1680f97f8b9a776d8c4e3e/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Lamarck’s Contribution
Jean Baptiste Lamarck was the first
to coin the term “Biology” in 1802.
He believed that this term would
permit botanists and zoologists to
share, what life had in common.
![Page 25: PowerPoint Presentation - EVOLUTION · parthenogenesis. Ideas that Shaped Darwin’s ... PowerPoint Presentation - EVOLUTION Author: Jeanine Stright Created Date: 4/9/2012 8:22:58](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021512/5b1680f97f8b9a776d8c4e3e/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Jean Baptiste Lamarck 14 August 1809, presented the two
volumes of his most important book,
Philosophie Zoologique, to France's
Institute National des Sciences et Arts.
Twenty years later, he died penniless,
blind and scorned, surrounded by
hundreds of unsold copies of his book.
He was buried in a rented plot,
exhumed and 'dispersed' five years
later.

Population Growth
Thomas Malthus-19th century English economist
If population grew (more Babies born than die)
Insufficient living space
Food runs out
Darwin applied this theory to animals

John Stevens Henslow
Henslow was a formative
influence on Charles Darwin,
who described their meeting
as the one circumstance
which influenced his career
more than any other.
Their friendship persisted to
the end of Henslow's life.

Natural Selection &
Artificial Selection
Natural Selection--differences among
individuals of a species
Artificial selection- nature provides the
variation among different organisms,
and humans select those variations they
find useful.

Evolution by Natural Selection
The Struggle for Existence-
members of each species have to
compete for food, shelter, other life
necessities
Survival of the Fittest-Some
individuals better suited for the
environment are the ones the can
pass their lucky genes ( DNA )

Summary of Darwin’s Theory
Individuals in nature differ from one another
Organisms in nature produce more offspring than can survive, and many of those who do not survive do not reproduce.
![Page 49: PowerPoint Presentation - EVOLUTION · parthenogenesis. Ideas that Shaped Darwin’s ... PowerPoint Presentation - EVOLUTION Author: Jeanine Stright Created Date: 4/9/2012 8:22:58](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021512/5b1680f97f8b9a776d8c4e3e/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Summary of Darwin’s Theory
Because more organisms are
produce than can survive, each
species must struggle for resources
Each organism is unique, each has
advantages and disadvantages in the
struggle for existence

Individuals best suited for the
