Human Evolution
-
-
-
-
Monkeys, chimpanzees, and humans are primates.
Humans evolved to have larger brains, taller bodies, use tools, and form communities
Charles Darwin
He disagreed with other scientists, because he believed that evolution takes a very long time to happen
-
He learned that living things looked different, depending on their environment
The Theory of Evolution is supported by lots of evidence, such as genetics and heredity
While traveling, he studied many types of plants and animals
-
Natural Selection
In a family, there are differences (variations)
-
-
-
-
Humans and monkeys share a common ancestor, but did not come from each other
Plant Adaptation (Jr)
-
Plants adapt to get food by using soil, animals, or other plants
-
-
-
Fossils
Oil, gas, and coal comes from fossils (fossil fuels)
Over millions of years, the plants were buried and become coal
There are different types of fossils, such as body, trace, mold, and cast
-
-
The fossil record is incomplete, because not everything becomes a fossil. Fossils support the theory of evolution.
Extinction
-
Climate change can cause mass extinction, such as the dinosaurs
-
-
About 65 million years ago, dinosaurs went extinct
Human activities can cause extinction, which would negatively impact us
Flu and Flu vaccine
Before advanced medicine, the Spanish Flu killed millions of people
-
Flu can cause symptoms, such as a fever
Viruses can have different strains (versions), based on their genes
