Theory for Evolution by Natural selction
Natural selection
Why
traits high in frequency are ussualy more suitable for the populations environment
while traits low in frequency or fully eliminated from the population are less suitable
What
The process by which all organisms adapt to a certain environment
How
P
Population changes over time
over generations more individuals in the population will likely possess the advantagous trait
Increasing frequency of trait in population
Making it most common phenotype for population
R
Reproduction
individuals that survive can reach sexual maturity to pass Genes (DNA) in their gametes
S
Survival
individuals with adaptation will survive better then individuals without it.
A
Adaptation
Changes to the Environment may have certain traits in the population to be Advantageous
Changes are called Selection pressures
it is NOT a CHOICE to adapt, they are already adapted to selection pressure
these traits are then called adaptations

V
Variation
Individuals expirienceing diffirence in specific trait then other individuals in same population
Is result of mutation in DNA
Population: Same species same location
Evolution
Evidince
Galapagos islands
One population of finches spread across islands
Each islands conditions favoured diffirent beak sizes
Go through VASRP and become own speices on each island
Fossil evidince
Fossils formed when covered quickly with sediment
Since sedimentry rocks have layers that can be used to show fossils from diffirent time periods
deeper fossils suggest that all speices came from a common ancestor
Embryology
Embryotic stages between diffirent speices were shown to be similar
Salamander, chicken, pig and human embryos start a clump of cells
But through embryo stages each species grows a trait that is specific to its species
Eg Salamander grows tail as a fetus
tectonic plates
fossil found to be shared between continents that were connected together in pangea
it is any change in the genetic traits of a population over time
Claims all organisms descended from a common ancestor
And have diffirentied them selves through natural selection
Speciation
The process within which a new species is formed
2 populations
Separated into two diffirent environments
then both go through natural selection thus evolving
Test to check if both populations are new species is to see a sexually viable offspring is able to be produced.
Human Biology
Chromosomes & genes
DNA
The blue prints of a body
Tells cells what to build
Genes are a part of it
They dictate traits of a organism
Eg there is a gene for ranga hair
Alleles are version of a gene
Dominant & recessive alleles
If sex cell has one dominant allele the organism from the sex cell will have have reflect the dominant allele
if Cell has two recessive alleles it will result in reflecting the recessive allele
Example
G is dominant and in top two squares results in the

Punnet Squares are used to show the possible Chromosomes for a sex cell for a certain gene
Top represent one parent
left represents other parent
This is an allele
Genotype: genetic composition
Eg XY XX
affects phenotype
Bases
guanine
cytosine
Can only be together
thymine
Can only be together
Adenine
Mutations
any change in the genetic matierial particularly DNA sequence
Meiosis
Sex Cells
Gametes
Sperm or Ova
Sexual Cell Division
Creates 4 Gametes with 2 chromosomes pairs
stages
Prophase
1 cell sorts chromosomes into homologous pairs and crossover each chromatid to mix up genes
Metaphase
Chromosomes are lined up in the middle of the cell
Anaphase
2 more items...
nucleus breaks down to start forming new nucleus's
23 chromosome pairs per cell
In the nucleus of a cell
46 chromosomes pairs because of interphase
Interphase 23 chromosomes copied to form full set
types of chromosmes
Heterozygous dominant
Homozygous
Heterozygous recessive
Mitosis
Non sexual cell division
For Growth repair and Maintenance
Phenotype
physical expression of genes for a trait
Eg Blonde Hair
