Evolution
 Evolution:
the change over time of the
genetic composition of
populations
 Natural selection:
populations of organisms
can change over the
generations if individuals
having certain heritable traits
leave more offspring than
others (differential reproductive
success)
 Evolutionary adaptations:
a prevalence of inherited
characteristics that enhance
organisms’ survival and

Charles Darwin
 1809-1882
 British naturalist
 Proposed the idea

of evolution by
natural selection
Collected clear
evidence to
support his ideas

Voyage of the HMS Beagle
 Invited to travel around the world
1831-1836 (22 years old!)
 makes many observations of nature

 main mission of the Beagle was to chart
South American coastline
Stopped in Galapagos Islands
500 miles off coast of Ecuador
AP Biology
Darwin found… birds
Collected many
different birds on the
Galapagos Islands.
Thought he found Finch?
very different kinds…

But Darwin found… a lot of finches
Darwin was amazed to
find out:
All 14 species of birds
were finches…
But there is only one
species of finch on the
mainland!

Darwin’s finches
 Darwin’s conclusions

small populations of original South American
finches landed on islands
 variation in beaks enabled individuals to gather
food successfully in the different environments

over many generations, the populations of
finches changed anatomically & behaviorally
 accumulation of advantageous traits in population
 emergence of different species
AP Biology
Seeing this gradation &
diversity of structure in
one small, intimately related group of birds,
one might really fancy that
from an original paucity of birds
in this archipelago,
one species has been taken &
modified for different ends.
AP Biology
Darwin’s finches
 Differences in
beaks allowed
some finches to…
successfully
compete
 successfully feed
 successfully
reproduce

 pass successful
AP Biology
traits onto their
offspring
More observations…
Correlation of species
to food source
Whoa,
Turtles, too!
AP Biology
Essence of Darwin’s ideas
 Natural selection
variation exists in populations
 over-production of offspring

 more offspring than the environment can support

competition
 for food, mates, nesting sites, escape predators

differential survival
 successful traits = adaptations

differential reproduction
 adaptations become more
