Basics 2 - Similarity and kinship

• kinship = verwantschap 
• Organisms from the same genus                                                     have a lot of similarities
• example: Lion and a tiger
• Organisms from the same kingdom have fewer similarities
• example: Fish and a zebra

Species?

• What is a species?
• Organisms that reproduce together and make fertile offspring. 
• They make babies that can                                                                have babies.

Breed?

Evolution

• Organisms that belong to the same species                            have a lot of similarities
• Variation
• Selection - a bird can not see the dark snails so eats the light ones first. The dark shells survive and make babies. Become more common.
• Evolution

Kinship

Animals with a close common ancestor 

are closely related 

• More closely related means
