Lesson 1 - Evolution: P. 258, 264-266

Learning goals:

• I can explain what defines a species is.
• I can explain how adaptations and competition can influence the survival of a species.
• I can explain and apply Darwin's theory of evolution.
• I can explain the differences between natural and artificial selection.

Keywords:

• Adaptations
• Competition
• Survival of the fittest
• Theory of evolution
• Charles Darwin
• Selection
• Natural selection
• Artificial selection
• Species

Species:

Species:

• A group of organisms that can reproduce together and produce fertile offspring. 

Charles Darwin:

Charles Darwin:

• English Scientist
• HMS Beagle - Galapagos Islands
• Finches
• Came up with his theory of Evolution. 
  
• "Survival of the fittest"

All species of organisms arise and develop through the natural selection of small, inherited variations that increase the individual's ability to compete, survive, and reproduce.

• Species

Selection:

Selection:

• The survival of a species.

• With natural selection,  this happens due to the natural development and evolution of the ecosystem. When any kind of competition occurs those that are best adapted to the new situation survive to reproduce.

• With artificial selection, this happens due to human influence.
