CHARLES DARWIN – BEAGLE , GALAPAGOS ISLAND

THE ORIGIN OG SPECIES
-MOCKINGBIRDS - FINCHES – TORTOISE SHELL
-FOSSILS
-ORGANISM HAVE CHANGED OVER TIME
-CHANGE IS GRADUAL AND SLOW
-ALL ORG. COME FROM COMMON ANCESTORS BY A
PROCESS OF BRANCHING
-THE MECHANISM OF EVOLUTIONARY CHANGE IS
NATURAL SELE.

NATURAL SELECTION
ADAPTIVE RADIATION – EVOLVED FROM SINGLE ANCES
DIVERGENT EVOLUTION – DIVERT TO NEW HABITATS
CONVERGENT EVO – MORE SIMILAR IN APPEARANCE
CO – EVO – JOINT CHANGE OF TWO OR MORE
EXTINCTION
RARITY – FEW LEFT
INBREEDING – MATE TO MUCH
HYBRIDIZATION – SUB SPECIES MATE
GRADUAL LOSS OF HABITAT
LONG-TERM ENVIRONMENTAL TRENDS – SLOWLY COOL
CATASTROPHE – VOLCANIC
EXTINCTION OR REDUCTION OF MUTUALLISTIC
POPULATION
COMPETITION – NEW SPECIES INTRODUCED
PREDATORS – PREY DECREASE
DISEASE – SICKNESS
HUNTING AND COLLECTING
