More Than An EyeWitness
Evidence for Evolution
![Page 2: More Than An EyeWitness Evidence for Evolution. Sources of Evidence From the fossil record From studies of anatomy From studies of embryology From studies.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062620/551b7b84550346167e8b4771/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Sources of Evidence
• From the fossil record
• From studies of anatomy
• From studies of embryology
• From studies of DNA/biochemistry
• From observation

Transitional Organisms
• If evolution has occurred in the past there should be evidence of transitional organisms in the fossil record.

Archeopteryx
• Archeopteryx shows evidence of the evolution of birds from reptiles….there is evidence of feathers, a characteristic of birds, and claws, a characteristic of reptiles.

Anatomical Studies show
• Homologous parts – similar in structure but not necessarily function – evidence of evolution from common ancestor
![Page 8: More Than An EyeWitness Evidence for Evolution. Sources of Evidence From the fossil record From studies of anatomy From studies of embryology From studies.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062620/551b7b84550346167e8b4771/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Anatomical studies show...
• Name two other organisms that have the ability to fly but have wings very different than those of the bird or the bat?
![Page 9: More Than An EyeWitness Evidence for Evolution. Sources of Evidence From the fossil record From studies of anatomy From studies of embryology From studies.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062620/551b7b84550346167e8b4771/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Analogous structures
• Butterflies or insects have wings but they are very different from the birds. These organisms do not have a common ancestor but have adapted to a similar environment. Again evolution explains the similarities.

Anatomical studies show
• Vestigial parts – why does a whale have a pelvis and femur bones if it has no hind limbs?
![Page 11: More Than An EyeWitness Evidence for Evolution. Sources of Evidence From the fossil record From studies of anatomy From studies of embryology From studies.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062620/551b7b84550346167e8b4771/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Vestigial structures
• Why does this salamander have eyes if it never sees the light of day?

Why do these structures occur?
• May be homologous to useful structures in other organisms and thus suggest evolution from an ancestor in which they do have a use.

Modification of anatomy
• The stinger of the wasp is not an entirely different structure but a modified ovipositor.

Anatomical Studies
• Anatomical studies of cells show a commonality in structure of the cell membrane among almost all living things. Does this suggest a common ancestor for all life?
![Page 16: More Than An EyeWitness Evidence for Evolution. Sources of Evidence From the fossil record From studies of anatomy From studies of embryology From studies.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062620/551b7b84550346167e8b4771/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Embryology Studies
• Even though it may not be apparent at this stage these three organisms are very different when born. Why do they look so similar now?
![Page 17: More Than An EyeWitness Evidence for Evolution. Sources of Evidence From the fossil record From studies of anatomy From studies of embryology From studies.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062620/551b7b84550346167e8b4771/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Embryology Studies
• The organisms are:– Fish
– Bird
– Human
– Why would these three, so different looking organisms at birth, look so similar before birth?

Which organisms appear to be more closely related to each
other?Human and chimpanzee have no
differences in their amino acid sequence suggesting their close evolutionary
relationship, they have a more recent common ancestor. Their DNA would be
similar because DNA determines the sequence of amino acids in proteins.

Observations of Evolution in modern organisms
• Mosquitoes resistance to insecticides
• Bacteria resistance to antibiotics
• New strains of influenza viruses (?)
• New strains of malaria causing Plasmodium
• New strains of TB (tuberculosis)
• Peppered moth
• Darwin finches

Has and Does Evolution Occur?
• Scientists do not dispute that evolution does occur. Evolution is a FACT.
• How evolution occurs is not completely understood.• Charles Darwin explained how evolution occurred
through natural selection. Natural selection is a well documented THEORY uniting all of biology.
• Modern evolutionary theory uses ideas of genetics, particularly mutations, to help explain how evolution may occur. (Darwin didn’t know about mutations.)
