Darwin's theory of
selection
results in
of organisms to their environment in a process called
.
Over time, microevolution may lead to
: the
formation
of new species.
Evidence for evolution includes:
The
record
links modern species to extinct ones through intermediate
forms.
The
record includes
homologous
,
comparative
, and
convergent
.
The
record
and
molecular
.
Microevolution can be modeled by the
Rule: allele frequencies should not change assuming 5 ideal
conditions.
At Hardy-Weinberg
, the distribution of 2
p
and
q
in a population can be
modeled
by two
equations.
Real populations can change their allele
frequencies
and undergo
.
Natural
selection
changes
frequencies in 3 directions.
selection
reduces
phenotypes.
selection
reduces
phenotypes.
selection
reduces one
phenotype from the population.
A
species is a group of organisms that can
with each other and produce
offspring.
Reproductive
can lead to
, the formation of new species.
barriers
include
isolation,
isolation,
isolation,
isolation,
isolation, and
barriers
may result in
inviability or
infertility.
