15–2 Ideas That Shaped Darwin’s Thinking
Objective:
•
How did Hutton and Lyell describe geological
change
•
Identify how Lamark thought species evolved
•
Describe Malthus’s theory of population
growth
15–2 Ideas That Shaped Darwin’s Thinking
At Darwin’s time most believed:
*How old is the earth?
*What is the evidence for both theories?
15-2 Homework
• Write out all key concepts.
• Define each vocabulary words in at least 1 complete
sentence.
A.
An Ancient, Changing Earth
– Hutton and Lyell helped scientists
1.
•
Hutton’s Theory of Geological Change
1795 geologist, theory that geological forces
that have shaped earth
2. Darwin received a copy of geologist Charles
Lyell’s book
Movement of Earth’s Crust

Sedimentary
rocks form in
horizontal
layers.
When part of
Earth’s crust is
compressed, a
bend in a rock
forms, tilting the
rock layers.
As the surface
erodes due to
water, wind, waves,
or glaciers, the
older rock surface is
exposed.
New sediment is
then deposited
above the
exposed older
rock surface.
B.
Jean-Baptiste Lamarck preceded Darwin
1.
Tendency Toward Perfection
2.
Use and Disuse
3.
Inheritance of Acquired Traits
4.
Evaluating Lamarck’s Theory
When Is a Flipper a Wing?
All living things are related. Some relationships are
easy to see— your pet cat may not roar like a lion,
but it clearly resembles one.
Other relationships are less obvious.
