PPT-Unit 8—Evolution AP Biology

I Evolution and Evolutionary Evolutionchange in gene frequency in a population over time Change must be genetic Occurs in a populationnot individuals Time depends on how fast environment changes and how fast organisms reproduce. Born and initially trained in Russia where he became an entomologist and zool ogist with wideranging interests he brought a rich background in systematics and study of natura l populations with him when he came to the United States to le arn genetic E. Evolution is a slow, gradual process by which life has developed from non-living material into animal and plant life through random natural selection.. . . 1.

Evolutionary concepts provide a solid foundation to much of modern biology. - . you can’t fully understand current trends in biology or you will have difficulty understanding evolution.
