NeedhamIt was known at the time that heat was lethal to living organisms. Needham theorized that if he took chicken broth and heated it, all living things in it would die. After heating some broth, he let a flask cool and sit at a constant temperature. Result: Lots of microorganisms grew in flaskSlide2
Spallanzani’s ExperimentTook Needham’s testing further and sealed some of the jars so no air could enterBoiled meat broth in two flasksOpen flask vs. sealed flaskResult: After three days, the broth in the open flask was cloudy = microorganism growthSlide3
Pasteur’s ExperimentHe repeated Spallanzani’s experiment, using a curved neck flaskLeft it open for one year Result: broth remained clearBroke the neck & left it for one day - it was cloudySlide4
Conclusion to all 3 experiments: spontaneous generation disproved The New hypothesis: biogenesis: all living things come from other living things.Slide5

Cyanobacteria is a phylum of bacteria that obtain their energy through photosynthesis. The name "cyanobacteria" comes from the color of the bacteria (Greek: = blue). Although often called blue-green algae, that name is a misnomer as cyanobacteria are prokaryotic and algae are eukaryotic.By producing oxygen as a gas as a by-product of photosynthesis, cyanobacteria are thought to have converted the early reducing atmosphere into an oxidizing one, which dramatically changed the composition of life forms on Earth by stimulating biodiversity and leading to the near-extinction of oxygen-intolerant organisms. According to endosymbiotic theory, the chloroplasts found in plants and eukaryotic algae evolved from cyanobacterial ancestors via endosymbiosis.Archaebacteria Sub-kingdom of the kingdom Prokaryote, which, on the basis of both RNA and DNA composition and biochemistry, differs significantly from other bacteria. They are thought to resemble ancient bacteria that first arose in extreme environments such as sulphur-rich, deep-sea vents.0.Slide8
TYPES OF ADAPTATIONSStructuralBehavioralPhysiological Let’s look at each type as we consider 2 species: the tundra & icecap-dwelling arctic fox & the desert dwelling fennec fox.Slide9
arctic fox (Alopex lagopus) fennec fox (Vulpes zerda)
Structural Adaptation
: The form that the organism takes.
EX: Big ears and small ears of foxes.
Heat escapes easily from the blood that passes through the vessels in the fennec fox’s ears. Cool blood from the ears then circulates through the body & keeps the fennec fox from overheating.Slide10
Structural Adaptations in PlantsSlide11
Behavioral Adaptation: These are innate (inherited) actions that individuals of the species perform.Arctic fox:Can be active any time of the day; ready to find food whenever available.Fennec fox:Is nocturnal; sleeps during the day & hunts at nightSlide12Slide13
Physiological Adaptation: Related to the biochemical processes at work within an organism’s body. Compare the processing of food & water:Arctic fox: food is scarce in winter; effective at storing food energy as fat.Fennec fox: little free water available; adapted to get all moisture it needs from fruit, roots, & leaves.Slide14
A whole lot happens inside our bodies and inside other organisms. Sometimes it is hard to see the physiological adaptations that an organism has. Organisms that make venom or poison are good examples of physiological adaptations. Or animals and plants in the desert that have special tissues to hold or absorb water are also good examples.
Snakes make venom to protect themselves and capture prey. It is a great adaptation
The Giant African Millipede is toxic. It makes a poison that it releases through its skin, it keeps it from being a tasty treat for predators
Plants are able to bend toward the light, a process called phototropism. This is an excellent example of a physiological adaptation because it occurs inside the plant as a result of chemical reactionSlide15
Different kinds of organisms evolve at different ratesBacteria evolve much faster than complex cellsThe rate of evolution also differs within the same group of speciesIn punctuated equilibrium
, evolution occurs in spurts
In
gradualism
, evolution occurs in a gradual, uniform way
The Rate of EvolutionSlide16
Punctuated equilibriumGradualismSlide17Slide18
PATTERNS OF EVOLUTIONCoevolution: Change of two or more species in close association with each other. EXAMPLE: Bumblebees and the flowers they pollinate have co-evolved so that both have become dependent on each other for survival.Slide19
Convergent Evolution: organisms that are very similar but are not closely related. This happens because of a change within the environment. Analogous structures are the result of convergent evolution.Slide20
DIVERGENT EVOLUTION:Two or more related species that become more dissimilar due to different environments. This usually produces another species
EXAMPLE:
GALAPAGOS FINCHESSlide21Slide22
Five evolutionary forces can significantly alter the allele frequencies of a population1. Mutation2. Migration
3. Genetic drift
4. Nonrandom mating
5. Selection
EVOLUTIONARY FORCESSlide23
The ultimate source of new variation Errors in DNA replication and change in DNA due to extraneous factorsMutation rates are too low to significantly alter allele frequencies on their own
MutationSlide24
Movement of individuals from one population to anotherImmigration: movement into a population
Emigration
:
movement out of a population
Migration
A very potent agent of changeSlide25
Random loss of allelesMore likely to occur in smaller populationFounder effect
Small group of individuals establishes a population in a new location
Bottleneck effect
A sudden decrease in population size due to natural forces
Genetic DriftSlide26
Mating that occurs more or less frequently than expected by chanceInbreeding Mating with relatives or selfIncreases homozygosity
Outbreeding
Mating with non-relatives
Increases heterozygosity
Nonrandom MatingSlide27
Some individuals leave behind more offspring than othersArtificial selection Breeder selects for desired characteristics

HISTORY OF TAXONOMYCLASSIFICATIONSlide30
Taxonomy the branch of biology that groups and names organisms based on their different characteristics Organisms are named using Latin,and in a way that no two have the same name ex) Canis lupisSlide31
Corn
Bears
Robins
Common names make poor labels
Zea saccharata
Zea mays indurata
Ursus arctos horribilis
Phascolarctos cinereusSlide32
ARISTOTLE – GREEK PHILOSOPHER1ST TO CLASSIFY ORGANISMS MORE THAN 2,000 YEARS AGO.
HE CLASSIFIED ALL LIVING THINGS AS EITHER
PLANT
OR
ANIMAL
HE GROUPED PLANTS BASED ON THEIR STEMS
HE GROUPED THE ANIMALS BASED ON WHERE THEY LIVED OR DWELL.Slide33
THE ANIMALS WERE DIVIDED INTO 3 CATEGORIES:ANIMALS
LAND
AIR
WATERSlide34
The classification system of the Middle Ages was known as the polynomial systemPolynomials were a string of Latin words or phrases consisting of up to 12 or more wordsThis system was difficult and confusingEven worse names were often changed often and without noticeSlide35
In the 1750s, the Swedish biologist Carolus Linnaeus developed the binomial systemBinomials are two-part namesThey have become our standard way of designating speciesSlide36
36Binomial nomenclature: two-word naming system (scientific name) for different species Scientists all over the world can communicate about an organism using its scientific name, regardless of country, language, etc.
Written in Latin because Latin is no longer used and therefore does not change
Each scientific name has two words that are italicized or underlined
First word:
genus
name (
capitalized
)
Second word:
species name (not capitalized)Homo sapiensGenus SpeciesSlide37
Linnaean SystemTaxonomist use a classification system to classify organismsCarolus Linnaeus (1707-1778)Classified organisms based on their morphology (form & structure)Binomial nomenclature system: two-part namingLinnaeus is the “father of classification”The system of classification is used by taxonomists.Slide38
38Binomial NomenclatureIt gives every species a two-part scientific name. For example, a ladybug found in the United States goes by the fancy name of Harmonia axyridis.The first part of a scientific name, like Harmonia, is called the genus. A genus is typically the name for a small group of closely related organisms. The second part of a scientific name, axyridis in this example, is the specific epithet. It is used to identify a particular species as separate from others belonging to the same genus. Together, the genus plus the specific epithet is the full scientific name for an organism.
10Slide39
39Binomial Nomenclature RulesBecause scientific names are unique species identifiers, they ensure that there is never any confusion as to which organism a scientist may be referring. Additionally, there are some important rules that must be followed to keep all binomial names standardized:The entire two-part name must be written in italics (or underlined when handwritten).The genus name is always written first.The genus name must be capitalized.
The specific epithet is never capitalized.Slide40Slide41
EX: lion-PANTHERA LEO Would be written:Panthera leoIf writing by hand:Panthera leoSlide42
HOW MANY SPECIES ARE THERE?Since the time of Linnaeus, about 1.5 million species have been namedHowever, scientists estimate that at least 10 million species existAt least two-thirds of these occur in the tropicsSlide43
PHYLOGENYTaxonomy also enables us to glimpse at the evolutionary history of life on earthThe evolutionary history of an organism and its relationship to other species is called phylogenyThe reconstruction and study of phylogenetic trees is called systematicsPhylogenetic tree= a family tree that shows the evolutionary relationships thought to exist among groups of organisms.Slide44
Phylogenetic trees are generally derived from several lines of evidence such as: morphological, embryological, & macromolecular similaritiesSlide45
A relatively new system of phylogenetic classification is called cladistics. As groups of organisms diverge and evolve from a
common ancestor
, they keep some of the same traits (
derived traits
)
Cladogram
:
branching diagram
that shows the derived traits of a group of organisms (like a pedigree that shows evolution)
The closer 2 organisms are in a cladogram, the more probable that they are closely related by evolutionEX: if the group being considered is birds, one example of a derived character is feathers. Most animals do not have feathers; birds are the only animals that do, therefore it is safe to assume that feathers evolved within the bird group.Slide46
Shared derived characters, particularly a group of several shared derived characters, are strong evidence of common ancestry between organisms that share them.When we do studies in comparative anatomy, and find that different numbers of shared derived characters exist between different groups, we can draw a diagram of branching lines which connect those groups, showing their different degrees of relationship.Diagrams showing the relationships of various organisms and their derived traits look like a slanted football field and are called cladograms.Slide47

Carl Linnaeus
Father of ClassificationSlide49
Binomial Nomenclature
Universal naming system still used today
Two-part: Genus and Epithet (description of species)
Genus IS capitalized; epithet is NOT
Both names are italicized or underlined
Ex. Felix domesticus (genus, species)
-or-
Ex. Homo sapiensSlide50
Higher Categories
Scientists use a hierarchical system to classify organisms (
high
low
)
Higher categories = more general
Lower categories = more specific

As you go down the category gets more specific.
Linnaeus was responsible for this system!Slide52Slide53
53The designation of kingdoms has changed over the yearsOriginally there were only two kingdomsAs more information about organisms was obtained, the number of kingdoms increased.A taxonomic level higher than kingdom has been recognized- Domain.Slide54
