Darwin’s Theory of Darwin’s Theory of EvolutionEvolution
Evolution, or change over time, is the process by which modern organisms have descended from ancient organisms.
A scientific theory is a well-supported testable explanation of phenomena that have occurred in the natural world.

Patterns of DiversityPatterns of Diversity Darwin visited Argentina and Australia
which had similar grassland ecosystems.
those grasslands were inhabited by very different animals.
neither Argentina nor Australia was home to the sorts of animals that lived in European grasslands.

Patterns of DiversityPatterns of Diversity
Darwin posed challenging questions.
Why were there no rabbits in Australia, despite the presence of habitats that seemed perfect for them?
Why were there no kangaroos in England?

Living Organisms and Living Organisms and FossilsFossils
Darwin collected the preserved remains of ancient organisms, called fossils.
Some of those fossils resembled organisms that were still alive today.

Living Organisms and Living Organisms and FossilsFossils
Others looked completely unlike any creature he had ever seen.
As Darwin studied fossils, new questions arose. Why had so many of these species
disappeared? How were they related to living species?

The Galapagos IslandThe Galapagos IslandThe smallest, lowest islands were
hot, dry, and nearly barren-Hood Island-sparse vegetation
The higher islands had greater rainfall and a different assortment of plants and animals-Isabela- Island had rich vegetation.

The Galapagos IslandThe Galapagos Island
Darwin was fascinated in particular by the land tortoises and marine iguanas in the Galápagos.
Giant tortoises varied in predictable ways from one island to another.
The shape of a tortoise's shell could be used to identify which island a particular tortoise inhabited.

Natural variation-differences among individuals of a species
Artificial selection- nature provides the variation among different organisms, and humans select those variations they find useful.

selection results in changes in inherited characteristics of a population. These changes increase a species fitness in its environment

Summary of Darwin’s Summary of Darwin’s TheoryTheory
Individuals in nature differ from one another
Organisms in nature produce more offspring than can survive, and many of those who do not survive do not reproduce.

Species alive today descended with modification from species that lived in the past
All organisms on earth are united into a single family tree of life by common descent
