• Directions: • Title pg. 97 “Evolution of Populations”• Divide your page 97 into 10 different boxes. • Number the boxes 1-10
Evolution of Populations
Population- group of organisms of the same species that interbreed
#1
Gene Pool-all the genes (alleles) present within a population
#2
Important!
• Natural selection works on the phenotype, not the genotype!
#3
Allele Frequency (Relative)- the number of times an allele will appear in a gene pool
Total- 6
R- 3 50%
r- 3 50%
rR RR
r r
#4
#4R- 48r- 52
What are the allele
frequencies? “R” has an allele frequency of 48%“r” has an allele
frequency of 52%
What can introduce variation into a population? 1)Mutation2)Gene Shuffling from Independent
Assortment
#5
Genetic Variation is important! Why?! -enables greater survival in a changing environment
#6
Genetic Equilibrium- -When allele frequencies remain the same.-No change, no evolution
#7
Genetic Equilibrium Requirements1)Random mating2) Large population3) No immigration or emigration4)No mutations5) No natural selection
#8
Genetic Drift-Random change in allele frequency due to small populationsNo benefit nor harm
#9
How does Genetic Drift occur?1)Bottleneck Effect: only a few survivors from an original population
contribute their alleles
#10
2) Founder Effect:A subgroup of the population immigrates to and colonizes a new area, changing allele frequencies.
#10
Types of Evolution:
Adaptive RadiationOne species can evolve into many diverse forms
