Chapter 17 Population Genetics and Evolution
Concepts
Evolution is good
#
Theism is opposed to it, therefore it is bad
Consistent theism doesn't allow for science
The scientific method is only available to non-theists
Population Genetics
Special Characteristics
Make up a species
Species are populations not kinds like the bible says
#
Gene Pool
Total alleles in a population
Factors of Gene Pool Change
Accidents
Can wipe out beneficial changes
#
Artificial Selection
People
Mutation
Almost always deleterious but used as the basis of beneficial changes
Natural Selection
Only legitimate thing mentioned
Genetic similarity prevents it
Doesn't always take place
Multiple selective pressures
Can lead to pleiotropic effects being passed on
Rates of Evolution
Normally very slow
Sometimes fast if structures are lost
Even if those structures became integral to the function of the organism, they can change and revert back to a less developed state.
Evolution and the Origin of Life
Genetic Drift
Fills in all the major holes regarding novel forms popping into existence
Chemosynthesis
Reducing agents can create amino acids and other organic compounds
Uses Debunked Miller Urey Experiments
Energy Sources
Beta radiation
Gamma radiation
Alpha radiation
All of which are able to create O2 by photolysis
Protein polymers
Don't form under hydrolytic conditions
Spontaneous Generation not being true proves evolution
Relies on Gradual Spontaneous Generation
It makes total sense if you don't think about it
Speciation
Caused by allele accumulation
Phyletic
Accumulation of changes
Seed Dispersal
Pollen Transfer
Vegetative Propagation
Divergent
Leaves ancestor generation behind
Biological Barriers
Postzygotic
Prezygotic
Hybirid Sterility
Abiological Factors
Geographical speciation
Ridiculous Conclusion
Highly Unlikely Processes Responsible for Everything
Because it must be good to deny God
