The Academy's Evolution Site
Biological evolution is one of the most central concepts in biology. The Academies have been active for a long time in helping those interested in science understand the theory of evolution and how it affects all areas of scientific exploration.
This site offers a variety of resources for teachers, students and general readers of evolution. It also includes important video clips from NOVA and WGBH produced science programs on DVD.
Tree of Life
The Tree of Life is an ancient symbol of the interconnectedness of life. It appears in many cultures and spiritual beliefs as an emblem of unity and love. It has numerous practical applications in addition to providing a framework for understanding the history of species, and how they react to changes in environmental conditions.
Early attempts to describe the biological world were based on categorizing organisms based on their metabolic and physical characteristics. These methods, which rely on the sampling of different parts of living organisms, or short fragments of their DNA, significantly expanded the diversity that could be represented in the tree of life2. However the trees are mostly composed of eukaryotes; bacterial diversity remains vastly underrepresented3,4.
Genetic techniques have greatly expanded our ability to visualize the Tree of Life by circumventing the need for direct observation and 에볼루션 카지노 사이트 바카라 에볼루션 체험 - Flixwood.com - experimentation. We can create trees by using molecular methods like the small-subunit ribosomal gene.
Despite the dramatic growth of the Tree of Life through genome sequencing, much biodiversity still remains to be discovered. This is especially the case for microorganisms which are difficult to cultivate, and are typically found in one sample5. A recent analysis of all genomes has produced an unfinished draft of a Tree of Life. This includes a wide range of bacteria, archaea and other organisms that haven't yet been isolated or whose diversity has not been fully understood6.
This expanded Tree of Life is particularly useful in assessing the diversity of an area, which can help to determine whether specific habitats require special protection. This information can be used in a variety of ways, such as finding new drugs, battling diseases and enhancing crops. The information is also incredibly useful for conservation efforts. It helps biologists determine the areas most likely to contain cryptic species with potentially important metabolic functions that could be vulnerable to anthropogenic change. Although funding to protect biodiversity are crucial, ultimately the best way to preserve the world's biodiversity is for more people living in developing countries to be equipped with the knowledge to act locally to promote conservation from within.
Phylogeny
A phylogeny, also called an evolutionary tree, illustrates the connections between various groups of organisms. Scientists can build a phylogenetic diagram that illustrates the evolution of taxonomic categories using molecular information and morphological differences or similarities. The role of phylogeny is crucial in understanding genetics, biodiversity and evolution.
A basic phylogenetic Tree (see Figure PageIndex 10 Identifies the relationships between organisms that have similar traits and evolved from a common ancestor. These shared traits could be either analogous or homologous. Homologous traits are identical in their underlying evolutionary path and analogous traits appear similar but do not have the same origins. Scientists group similar traits together into a grouping known as a Clade. For instance, all of the organisms that make up a clade share the trait of having amniotic egg and evolved from a common ancestor who had these eggs. A phylogenetic tree can be constructed by connecting the clades to identify the organisms that are most closely related to one another.
Scientists use DNA or RNA molecular data to construct a phylogenetic graph that is more precise and detailed. This information is more precise and gives evidence of the evolution history of an organism. Researchers can utilize Molecular Data to calculate the evolutionary age of organisms and determine how many species have an ancestor common to all.
The phylogenetic relationships between organisms are influenced by many factors, including phenotypic flexibility, a type of behavior that alters in response to specific environmental conditions. This can cause a particular trait to appear more similar in one species than other species, which can obscure the phylogenetic signal. This issue can be cured by using cladistics. This is a method that incorporates the combination of homologous and analogous traits in the tree.
Furthermore, phylogenetics may help predict the time and pace of speciation. This information can assist conservation biologists decide the species they should safeguard from the threat of extinction. In the end, it is the conservation of phylogenetic variety that will lead to an ecosystem that is complete and balanced.
Evolutionary Theory
The central theme of evolution is that organisms acquire various characteristics over time based on their interactions with their environment. Several theories of evolutionary change have been proposed by a wide range of scientists including the Islamic naturalist Nasir al-Din al-Tusi (1201-1274) who proposed that a living organism develop slowly in accordance with its needs as well as the Swedish botanist Carolus Linnaeus (1707-1778) who designed the modern hierarchical taxonomy, as well as Jean-Baptiste Lamarck (1744-1829) who suggested that the use or 에볼루션 바카라 체험 misuse of traits can cause changes that can be passed on to offspring.
In the 1930s and 1940s, theories from various fields, including genetics, natural selection and particulate inheritance, came together to form a contemporary theorizing of evolution. This explains how evolution is triggered by the variations in genes within the population and how these variants change with time due to natural selection. This model, which encompasses mutations, genetic drift in gene flow, and sexual selection, can be mathematically described mathematically.
Recent developments in the field of evolutionary developmental biology have demonstrated that variation can be introduced into a species by mutation, genetic drift and reshuffling genes during sexual reproduction, and also through the movement of populations. These processes, along with others, such as directional selection and gene erosion (changes in frequency of genotypes over time) can lead to evolution. Evolution is defined as changes in the genome over time and changes in phenotype (the expression of genotypes in individuals).
Incorporating evolutionary thinking into all areas of biology education can increase student understanding of the concepts of phylogeny as well as evolution. A recent study by Grunspan and colleagues, for instance revealed that teaching students about the evidence supporting evolution increased students' acceptance of evolution in a college-level biology class.

Evolution in Action
Traditionally, scientists have studied evolution by studying fossils, comparing species and studying living organisms. But evolution isn't just something that happened in the past; it's an ongoing process, that is taking place right now. Viruses reinvent themselves to avoid new medications and bacteria mutate to resist antibiotics. Animals alter their behavior in the wake of the changing environment. The results are often apparent.
But it wasn't until the late-1980s that biologists realized that natural selection can be seen in action, as well. The key to this is that different traits result in an individual rate of survival and reproduction, and can be passed on from generation to generation.
In the past, if one allele - the genetic sequence that determines color - appeared in a population of organisms that interbred, it might become more common than any other allele. In time, this could mean that the number of moths with black pigmentation in a group may increase. The same is true for many other characteristics--including morphology and behavior--that vary among populations of organisms.
Monitoring evolutionary changes in action is easier when a species has a rapid generation turnover like bacteria. Since 1988, biologist Richard Lenski has been tracking twelve populations of E. Coli that descended from a single strain; samples from each population are taken regularly, and over fifty thousand generations have been observed.
Lenski's research has revealed that a mutation can dramatically alter the speed at the rate at which a population reproduces, and consequently the rate at which it changes. It also demonstrates that evolution is slow-moving, a fact that some people are unable to accept.
Another example of microevolution is the way mosquito genes for resistance to pesticides are more prevalent in areas where insecticides are used. This is due to pesticides causing a selective pressure which favors individuals who have resistant genotypes.
The rapidity of evolution has led to an increasing appreciation of its importance, especially in a world which is largely shaped by human activities. This includes climate change, 에볼루션 코리아 pollution, and habitat loss that prevents many species from adapting. Understanding the evolution process will help us make better decisions regarding the future of our planet and 에볼루션 사이트 the life of its inhabitants.
