Answers to Warm-Up
Evolution Part C Questions
1.
Natural selection
Evolution
Reproduction
Mutation
2.
Natural Selection: The Population had some members that were naturally resistant
to antibiotics. They survived and reproduced, passing on the resistance.
Evolution: Some organisms were resistant to the pesticide. They survived and
passed on the trait.
Reproduction- Resistant members survived and passed on the trait.
Mutation- It produces variations that give some organisms a survival advantage.
Answers to Warm-Up
Evolution Part C Questions
3. Resistant bacteria will survive and continue to make people sick.
Insects will continue to destroy crops.
Antibiotics do not work anymore.
There will be less food available.
4. Do not use.
5. People might be sick longer.
More people could get sick.
Organisms may become resistant to other treatments.
Natural predators may get out of control.
Inserted genes may have an undesired effect.
Research takes a lot of time and money.
Aim #76: How do comparative
studies help trace evolution?
1) How do we know we are
related to chimps &
gorillas?
COMMON ANCESTOR
2) Comparative Studies
• Study of similarities between
living things.
• Provides evidence of a common
origin (ancestor)
3) Why do scientists do
comparative studies?
To observe how closely organisms are related
to each other and see evolutionary patterns
4) COMPARATIVE STUDIES
a) Who are we closely related to?
b) Who are we distantly related to?
5) Types of Comparative Studies
• Anatomy
• Embryology
• Biochemistry
DNA and Proteins
6) Comparative Anatomy
• What is anatomy?
• What do you think
comparative
anatomy studies?
• Study of structural
similarities and
differences in
living things
7) HOMOLOGOUS STRUCTURES
• Do you see any similarities between these
organisms?
• How are they similar? How are they different?
Homologous Structures - similar structures,
different form & function. Shows evolutionary
relationships (they are related).
8) VESTIGIAL ORGANS
• The appendix and the tail
bone are both
VESTIGIAL organs.
What do they have in
common?
• Vestigial structureshave no function.
• Why would an organism
possess organs with
little or no function?
• They are remnants of
structures that may have
had important functions
in ancestral species, but
no clear function in
modern descendants.

9) ANALOGOUS STRUCTURES
• What do these two images have in common?
Insect Wing
Analogous Structures- similar form and
function, different internal structure. Does
not show evolutionary relationships.
Divergent vs. Convergent
Evolution:
10) Divergent Evolution- the pattern of evolution in which
species that were once similar to an ancestral species
become increasingly different.
11) Convergent Evolution- the
pattern of evolution in which
distantly related organisms
evolve similar traits.
12) When do each of these types of evolution
occur?
Divergent Evolution occurs when populations change
as they adapt to different environmental conditions.
Once related species now look different.
Convergent Evolution occurs when unrelated species
occupy similar environments in different parts of the
world. Unrelated species now look the same.
Which is Which?
Which is the
gorilla, fish and rabbit?
13) Comparative Embryology
• In Comparative Embryology, related
organisms show similar embryonic
development
14) Comparative Biochemistry
• Comparative Biochemistry compares the
DNA or Amino Acids of an organism in order
to find relationships among living things.
The more
similar the
DNA and
Amino Acids,
the more
closely the two
organisms are
related.
15) Common Ancestor
• This evidence leads to the idea of:
• COMMON ANCESTRY
• All species living and extinct were derived from common
ancestors.
16) The Results of Genetic Variation:
1)Structural Change- the physical
features of an organism.
2)Functional Change- molecular or biochemical
changes affect how an organism works. Changes in
DNA often lead to functional changes.
3)Behavioral Change- many of the
specific behaviors today have become
common because they have resulted
in greater reproductive success.
