I. Measuring Earth’s ageA. radiometric dating
1. calculation of the age of an object by measuring the proportions of the radioactive
isotopes of certain elementsa. isotopes: forms of an element with different atomic massb. radioisotopes: unstable elements (parent) that give off charged particles (radiation)c. This change or decay results in a more stable isotope

d. Use elements with known decay ratese. Half-life – the time it takes for a radioactive element to lose half of its radioactive materialf. Examples:
1)Carbon-14 to Nitrogen-14 = 5730 years
2)Uranium-238 to Lead-206 = 4.5 billion years
3)Potassium-40 to Argon-40 =1.25 billion years

C. Fossil Record1. Fossils can be dated using
radiometric dating
2. Conditions must be just right to form a fossil.
a. Covered with sediment, desiccated, or frozen very quickly and preserved.
3. The fossil record is not complete and probably never will be
a. Many “missing links” of fossils not found

Evolution
Changes in traits within populations over many generations (change over time)
![Page 14: Ecology and Evolution Zoology. I. Measuring Earth’s age A. radiometric dating 1. calculation of the age of an object by measuring the proportions of the](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c50e8f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Processes
Variation –phenotype results from genotype + environment
Reproduction –genetic recombination due to independent assortment
Selection – there is a variation in the ability to survive and reproduce. Those with an advantage over competitors have more offspring

Charles Darwin
Lived in the 1800s Was a British naturalist Sailed on HMS Beagle
in 1831 Made notes of
distribution of wildlife and collected fossils
Came up with Natural Selection
![Page 16: Ecology and Evolution Zoology. I. Measuring Earth’s age A. radiometric dating 1. calculation of the age of an object by measuring the proportions of the](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c50e8f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Natural Selection
Individuals that have physical or behavioral traits that better suit their environment are more likely to survive and reproduce than those that do not have such traits.
“Survival of the fittest”
![Page 17: Ecology and Evolution Zoology. I. Measuring Earth’s age A. radiometric dating 1. calculation of the age of an object by measuring the proportions of the](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c50e8f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Natural Selection Principles
The individuals of a given species vary in traits and behaviors.
All organisms produce more offspring then can actually survive.
Individuals that are best adapted to environment survive.
Survivors pass their traits on to their offspring.

Evolution Vocab
Mutation – a permanent change to DNA (good or bad)
Adaptation – a change in an organism that makes it better suited to its environment
Extinction – death of every member of a species

Evolution Vocab
Speciation – the process by which new biological species arise
Divergent evolution – differences between groups which can lead to the formation of a new species
![Page 24: Ecology and Evolution Zoology. I. Measuring Earth’s age A. radiometric dating 1. calculation of the age of an object by measuring the proportions of the](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c50e8f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Adaptation leads to:Adaptive Radiation
Evolutionary diversification that forms many new species from a single ancestor species
Isolation: two populations of the same species cannot breed with one another.

2. energy leaves as heat (metabolism)
