DEFINITIONS:
Adaptation- physical characteristic or behavior that allows an organism to survive and reproduce in its environment
Species- group of organisms that can mate to produce fertile offspring
population- groups of same species living in the same place
evolution- process in which inherited characteristics within a population change over generations such that new species sometimes arise
![Page 3: Prehistory 2: Life Changes- Notes on adaptation, natural selection, speciation, & Darwin, with video links](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051816/5466281eaf795937498b653d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Fossil- remains or imprints of once-living organisms found in layers of rock
Fossil record- historical timeline based on fossils found in Earth’s crust
CONNECTING:
* Fossils are hard to form & find (esp. on land) * There are blank places in our record * Disturbances in the strata/rock record
1858: 1st almost complete dino skeleton found

HOW DO FOSSILS FORM?
Petrified Fossil: fossil completely turns to stone
1. Organism dies in right place: sediments cover (lake bottom, mud flats)
2. Soft parts decay or are eaten3. Sediments layer; pressure causes sediments to
fuse together, encasing organism like a shell4. Ground water with minerals seeps around the
bones; minerals left in bone spaces & may replace whole bone
5. Rock layer needs uplifted & layers above eroded for fossil to be DISCOVERED

Scientists use logic & carbon dating to sequence & draw connections among fossil findings all over the world

What do scientists do?
Geologists & Paleontologists
Compare skeletal structure
Compare DNA
Date the fossils
Put into logical order as new fossils are found

Which rocks are oldest? Most recent?
Which fossils would be oldest? Most recent?
A: Most recent rocks- Those on top & those cutting through others
![Page 9: Prehistory 2: Life Changes- Notes on adaptation, natural selection, speciation, & Darwin, with video links](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051816/5466281eaf795937498b653d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Rocks on the top & those intruding are the youngest.
Rocks on the bottom are older.
Erosion on a layer with other layers piled on top means the eroded layer is older.
Erosion means an environmental change: physical weathering-wind, water, temperature

SIMILAR STRUCTURE? = TWO REASONS:
Analogous structures performs same function; evolved from different origins (independently)
WINGS: birds, bats, butterflies
Homologous structures same structure, different function; evolved from common ancestor
human arm, horse leg, bird wing

Similar skeletal features reveal important evolutionary linksamong vertebrates. Structures such as bones that have a commonorigin but different function are called homologous structures.
COMPARING SKELETONS LABHomologous structure- body part with same origin in different species but may not serve the same functions now.DIRECTIONS: Color the homologous bones the same color in each species.
Header: CS 1
Activity 1:
Activity 2: Choose 3 colors. Decide which skeletons appear most similar. Color similar skeletons the same color.

Make a poster to show your final interpretation of the fossils as well as how your interpretation changed as you got more information.Each person’s handwriting must be on the poster.
Include in your poster:• The type of animal you think your fossils were• A drawing of what the animal might look like• Where the animal might have lived (in water, on land, on land and in the air) and whyyou think so• What you originally thought the animal was on Day 1• The biggest piece of evidence that caused you to change your interpretation from
Day1 to Day 5• What new pieces of evidence (such as another fossil from the animal) might support
your hypothesis about these fossils?• What new piece of evidence might prove that your interpretation of these fossils isinaccurate?

A HISTORY LESSON:
Charles Darwin: 1809- 1882, naturalist who voyaged on the HMS Beagle as a young man & is know as the founder of the idea of natural selection later in life…
…really a THINKER, who put together the ideas of many contemporaries.

• He collected plant and animal samples, esp. off the coast of Ecuador in the Galapagos Islands

• Noticed that plants and animals on the islands looked similar to those in Ecuador with minor variations (differences)
• This got him to thinking
The beaks were suited to what
the birds ate on each island!

• traits- specific characteristics that can be passed from parent to offspring through genes

An example:
• Selective breeding- humans select desired traits in plant/animal and breed it for more (150+ breeds of dogs)

• Thomas Malthus wrote An Essay on the Principle of Population: an essay that said humans had the potential to reproduce too fast for the food supply
• Said that human populations are LIMITED to choices humans make & available resources/disease

• Darwin thought then, that populations of all species were limited:
• Starvation
• Disease
• Competition
• Predation
• So, only a limited number survive to reproduce
What was special about the survivors?
![Page 25: Prehistory 2: Life Changes- Notes on adaptation, natural selection, speciation, & Darwin, with video links](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051816/5466281eaf795937498b653d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
• Offspring inherit traits to survive in the environment
• Darwin thought species could evolve over time ***MOST geologists at that time thought the Earth wasn’t old enough for that
What was special about the survivors?
![Page 26: Prehistory 2: Life Changes- Notes on adaptation, natural selection, speciation, & Darwin, with video links](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051816/5466281eaf795937498b653d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
• Charles Lyell a geologist, wrote Principles of Geology; said Earth was formed by natural processes over a LONG period of time
• Darwin struggled with ideas for 20 yrs
• Alfred Russell Wallace 1858 a naturalist, writing to Darwin; shared the same ideas
• 1859 Darwin published his ideas: On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection
![Page 27: Prehistory 2: Life Changes- Notes on adaptation, natural selection, speciation, & Darwin, with video links](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051816/5466281eaf795937498b653d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• Natural Selection process by which individuals are better adapted to survive and reproduce than others & pass along those genes to offspring
• Theory lacked some evidence, but later scientists filled in the holes
1. Overproduction: producing more potential babies than will survive
2. Inherited variation: each individual is slightly different, not exactly like parent
3. Struggle to survive: some will die, disease, competition, predators, but ALL won’t
4. Successful reproduction: those most adapted to environment will have offspring with traits like them
