• Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) –
He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance.
• He was the first to state
that organisms change
over time, and new types
are modified descendents
of older types.

Lamarck stated that acquired traits could be passed to offspring
(The Theory of Acquired Inheritance)
![Page 5: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
"All which has been acquired, laid down, or changed in the organization of individuals in the course of their life is conserved by generation and transmitted to the new individuals which proceed from those which have undergone those changes.”
This means that according to
Lamarck, acquired traits could
be inherited by the next
generation.
![Page 6: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The Giraffe example: The giraffe’s long neck could be the result of generations of giraffes stretching to reach leaves in high branches over their lifetime. Parents slightly stretch their necks and therefore have offspring that inherit this modification acquired during their parents’ life.
![Page 7: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
If a giraffe stretched its neck for leaves, for example, a "nervous fluid" would flow into its neck and make it longer. Its offspring would inherit the longer neck, and continued stretching would make it longer still over several generations.

The Long-Legged Bird Example:
The long legs of wading birds arose when their ancestors responded to a need to feed on fish. As they waded in deeper water, they stretched their legs to try and keep their bodies dry. This trait would be passed to the next generation.

"The development of organs and their force of action are constantly in ratio to the employment of these organs."
Lamarck stated that there could be
changes in acquired traits through use
or disuse.

• Lamarck also proposed that organisms were driven from simple to increasingly more complex forms. (Darwin argued that increased complexity was the result of adaptation to local environments from one generation to the next.)
• He did not think species ever went extinct, they just changed into new forms.

Charles Darwin (1809 – 1882) After college, a young Charles Darwin (22 yrs old), in 1831, set sail aboard the HMS Beagle as the ship’s naturalist. (The ship was chartered for a five-year mapping mission.)
Darwin 1840

Darwin was required to collect specimens and carefully record his observations. Darwin was often left at various sea ports for months at a time, which enabled him to collect many fossils and observe thousands of specimens.

Darwin’s Voyage
![Page 17: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Darwin read Principles
of Geology by Charles
Lyell, who stated that
the geological
structure of the Earth
resulted from cycles
of observable
processes that
operate continuously
through time.
![Page 18: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Darwin also read about James Hutton’s work:
In 1795, Hutton, a geologist,published a theorythat the Earth is shaped by geologic forces that take place over Extremely long periodsof time. He estimated the Earth to be millions of years old.
![Page 19: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
During Darwin’s journey, he witnessed a volcanic eruption, & an earthquake that lifted a portion of shoreline and noted that animal life in the water was displaced.
![Page 20: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Darwin also observed fossil shells of marine organism in rock beds about 4,300 meters (14,100 ft) above sea level.
Darwin concluded that if the Earth could change over time, then life could change as well. He also assumed that it would have taken many, many years.
![Page 21: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The Galapagos Islands are a group of small
islands near the equator, about 600 miles off the
coast of South America. The observations and
specimens Darwin collected were especially
important to developing his theory.

Darwin’s Finches: Darwin collected many
specimens of finches from the
Galapagos Islands and found that he had
several similar but separate species.
![Page 26: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Darwin had collected 13 different species, each
with a different bill specialized for a particular
food source.

Miller & Levine Biology
![Page 29: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
• Since there were so many similarities, he believed this implied that the finches shared a common ancestor.
• He assumed the differences in the bills
of offspring were adaptations to different environments.
• He also assumed that over many millions of years, many large differences could accumulate
between species.
![Page 30: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Darwin’s tortoises: Darwin found that the
shapes of tortoise shells corresponded to
different habitats.
![Page 31: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
• The hood Island tortoise has a long neck and a shell that is curved and open around the neck and legs, allowing the tortoise to reach sparse vegetation.
• The Isabela Island tortoise has a dome-shaped shell & a shorter neck. Vegetation on this Island is more abundant and closer to the ground.
• Pinta Island tortoises have an intermediate shell between these two forms.
![Page 32: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Another important idea that aided Darwin’s
conclusions about the change in organisms
was proposed by Thomas Malthus in 1798.
He stated that the human population could
double & redouble, except for
the presence of war, disease,
or limited food supplies.
![Page 33: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Darwin’s conclusions:
• 1) Darwin reasoned that all organisms have environmental limits to their growth which decrease their rate of reproduction or increase their rate of death.
• 2) Organisms compete for limited resources.
• 3) Certain traits are beneficial to an organism’s survival, as well as greater reproductive success. If the trait increases the reproductive
success, & is inherited, it is passed to many offspring.
![Page 34: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
• 4) Organisms adapt to their environment .
(Adaptations occur as their proportion of genes for favorable traits increases. – Darwin did not know about genes)
• 5) The resulting change in genetic makeup is evolution. The genetic contribution to the next generation termed fitness.
• 6) An individual with a high fitness is well- adapted to its environment and reproduces more successfully than an individual with low fitness.
These are not Darwin’s – But related to Evolution:
![Page 35: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Natural Selection -“Survival of the fittest.”
Individuals best suited
to their environment
survive and reproduce
the most successfully,
and pass their favorable
traits to offspring. While
those with more poorly
-suited traits die, or
leave fewer offspring.
![Page 36: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
• Species change over long periods of time.
Natural selection causes the changes in
species. New species arise, while others
Species alive today descended, with
modifications from species that lived in the
past. All organisms on Earth are united
in a single tree of life by common descent.

Artificial Selection and Natural Selection:Breeding organisms with specific traits
in order to produce offspring with identical
traits is called “Artificial selection.”
Darwin used the term
“Natural selection” to
describe nature’s forces
Selecting which traits
are favorable and which
organisms are better fit to survive.
![Page 39: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Natural Selection, the key evolutionary mechanism Darwin identified, is really four key processes
• genetic variation (difference in genomes among organisms in a given population)
• overproduction of offspring
• struggle for existence (competition for food, mating resources etc.)
• differential survival and reproduction (higher fitness, & better adaptation leads to more offspring).

Natural Selection and peppered moths:
As pollution darkens the trees which moth
is favored to survive?
![Page 44: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Darwin was asked by the naturalist Alfred Wallace, in
1856 (22 years after Darwin returned to England on
the Beagle) to review his paper on “Natural Selection”
as a mechanism for Evolution.
Darwin decided to publish his own work on evolution.
Both papers were presented to the Linnaean Society
of London in 1858.
![Page 45: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Darwin wrote his now famous book, On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, more commonly known as The Origin of Species.
![Page 46: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
What causes changes in a population of organisms?
Darwin did not know how heredity worked.
Therefore he did not know the source of the
variation that was
central to his theory,
or how these traits
were passed to offspring.
![Page 47: EVOLUTION. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1809) – He developed a theory of evolution. He related fossils to living animals based on similar appearance. He](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649cdb5503460f949a4fae/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Two main sources of genetic variation:
• 1) Mutations - Mutations do not always affect
an organism’s phenotype, but some may enhance
an organism’s ability to survive and reproduce.
• 2) Sexual reproduction - The Genetic
shuffling that results from sexual reproduction causes variations in a population.
Genes mutate from one form to another. New alleles are introduced into the population, and allele frequencies change. -------This can lead to evolution.
