• Organism – individual living (biotic) thing• Population – group of organisms, all of one
species, which live in the same place and the same time
• Community – all the populations of different species, same place, same time
• Ecosystem – Populations of plant and animals that interact with each other in a given area and with the abiotic parts (non-living)
• Biosphere – The portion of Earth that supports life

Cell StructuresCell Structures
•1. Cell wall: rigid layer of nonliving material that surrounds the cells of plants–Made of cellulose–Protects and supports the cells

EvolutionEvolution
Charles Darwin (1809-1882)1. Natural Selection
a. “Only the strongest survive”
2. Darwin hypothesized that when animals had traits that helped them live, they would pass them on to their offspring.
3. Animals who did not possess these traits died.
Darwin’s ExampleDarwin’s Example
1. Darwin noted the different beak structures of finches depended on the island they came from.
2. Finches who lived on islands plentiful in nuts and berries had different beaks than finches who lived on islands plentiful in insects.
Even though all these birds are finches they developed different beaks
depending on the plentiful food source of specific islands.
Examples of Natural Examples of Natural SelectionSelection
1. Galapagos Iguanasa. Some iguanas have
evolved to eat algae.b. Some iguanas have
developed large claws to help them cling to rock.
c. These iguanas evolved from other iguanas because they need those two traits to survive.
d. The algae eating, long clawed iguanas passed these trait on to their young.
e. Iguanas not having that trait.
Everyday green iguana
Galapagos marine iguana
Other adaptationsOther adaptations
1. Camaflougea. Enables species to
blend in with their surroundings.
Can you find the snake’s head?
2. Mimicry – enables a species to look like other species
What part of the plant is this?It’s not part of the plant at all, it’s an insect.
Darwin HypotheticalDarwin Hypothetical
1. Let’s say there was a new “killer” virus that affected dogs.
2. This flu bug only affected dogs with long hair. So, if a dog had long hair (more than ¾ inch long) it would get the virus and die.
3. In 20 years, will all dogs have long or short hair? WHY?
• All dogs would have short hair because all the long hair dogs have died from the virus. There would only be short haired dogs mating with short hair dogs.
• You could say all dogs with short hair were “naturally selected” to live. The dog species has evolved from having both short and long hair to having only short hair.
1. Populations evolve not individuals.
B. B.
C. Had a higher survival rate C. Had a higher survival rate than light moths in the same than light moths in the same

• Jean Baptiste Lamarck (1744-1821)– Came before Darwin– Had some of the same ideas as Darwin – No one ever believed him.– Died in obscurity and poverty.
GeneticsGenetics
1. The dominant trait will always be visible2. Dominant-always masks the recessive;
represented by uppercase letter (T, H, D, R)
3. Recessive-will be masked by dominant; represented by lowercase letter (t, h, d, r)-For a recessive trait to be visible, there must be two (tt, hh, dd, rr)
