The Academy's Evolution Site
The concept of biological evolution is a fundamental concept in biology. The Academies are committed to helping those who are interested in science to learn about the theory of evolution and how it can be applied throughout all fields of scientific research.
This site provides a wide range of resources for teachers, students and general readers of evolution. It includes key video clip from NOVA and WGBH produced science programs on DVD.
Tree of Life
The Tree of Life, an ancient symbol, symbolizes the interconnectedness of all life. It is a symbol of love and harmony in a variety of cultures. It also has many practical applications, such as providing a framework to understand the history of species and how they respond to changes in environmental conditions.
The first attempts to depict the biological world were founded on categorizing organisms on their metabolic and physical characteristics. These methods, which rely on the sampling of different parts of organisms or short fragments of DNA, have significantly increased the diversity of a tree of Life2. These trees are largely composed by eukaryotes, and the diversity of bacterial species is greatly underrepresented3,4.
In avoiding the necessity of direct observation and experimentation genetic techniques have enabled us to depict the Tree of Life in a more precise way. We can construct trees using molecular methods, such as the small-subunit ribosomal gene.
Despite the rapid expansion of the Tree of Life through genome sequencing, much biodiversity still awaits discovery. This is especially true for microorganisms that are difficult to cultivate, and are usually found in one sample5. Recent analysis of all genomes resulted in a rough draft of the Tree of Life. This includes a wide range of bacteria, archaea and other organisms that have not yet been isolated or their diversity is not thoroughly understood6.
The expanded Tree of Life is particularly beneficial in assessing the biodiversity of an area, helping to determine if certain habitats require special protection. This information can be used in a variety of ways, from identifying new treatments to fight disease to enhancing the quality of the quality of crops. The information is also valuable for conservation efforts. It helps biologists determine the areas that are most likely to contain cryptic species with significant metabolic functions that could be at risk from anthropogenic change. Although funds to protect biodiversity are crucial, ultimately the best way to ensure the preservation of biodiversity around the world is for more people in developing countries to be empowered with the necessary knowledge to take action locally to encourage conservation from within.
Phylogeny
A phylogeny (also known as an evolutionary tree) illustrates the relationship between organisms. Using molecular data similarities and 에볼루션게이밍 (https://moparwiki.win/wiki/Post:Why_Do_So_Many_People_Want_To_Know_About_Evolution_Gaming) differences in morphology or ontogeny (the process of the development of an organism), scientists can build a phylogenetic tree which illustrates the evolutionary relationship between taxonomic groups. The phylogeny of a tree plays an important role in understanding biodiversity, genetics and evolution.
A basic phylogenetic Tree (see Figure PageIndex 10 ) is a method of identifying the relationships between organisms with similar traits that evolved from common ancestral. These shared traits could be either analogous or homologous. Homologous traits are identical in their evolutionary origins while analogous traits appear similar but do not have the same origins. Scientists organize similar traits into a grouping referred to as a Clade. For instance, all of the species in a clade share the trait of having amniotic eggs and evolved from a common ancestor who had eggs. A phylogenetic tree is then constructed by connecting the clades to determine the organisms who are the closest to one another.
Scientists use DNA or RNA molecular data to build a phylogenetic chart which is more precise and detailed. This information is more precise and provides evidence of the evolutionary history of an organism. Researchers can use Molecular Data to calculate the evolutionary age of organisms and determine the number of organisms that share the same ancestor.
The phylogenetic relationship can be affected by a number of factors such as phenotypicplasticity. This is a type behavior that alters as a result of particular environmental conditions. This can cause a characteristic to appear more similar in one species than another, clouding the phylogenetic signal. This issue can be cured by using cladistics. This is a method that incorporates the combination of analogous and homologous features in the tree.
In addition, phylogenetics can help predict the time and pace of speciation. This information can aid conservation biologists to decide which species to protect from extinction. In the end, it's the conservation of phylogenetic diversity that will lead to an ecosystem that is balanced and complete.
Evolutionary Theory
The central theme in evolution is that organisms change over time due to their interactions with their environment. Many scientists have come up with theories of evolution, including the Islamic naturalist Nasir al-Din al-Tusi (1201-274), who believed that a living thing would develop according to its own needs, the Swedish taxonomist Carolus Linnaeus (1707-1778) who conceived the modern hierarchical taxonomy, as well as Jean-Baptiste Lamarck (1844-1829), who believed that the use or non-use of traits can cause changes that can be passed on to future generations.
In the 1930s and 1940s, theories from a variety of fields--including genetics, natural selection, and particulate inheritance - came together to create the modern evolutionary theory synthesis that explains how evolution occurs through the variation of genes within a population and how these variants change in time due to natural selection. This model, known as genetic drift mutation, gene flow and sexual selection, is the foundation of the current evolutionary biology and can be mathematically explained.
Recent developments in the field of evolutionary developmental biology have demonstrated that genetic variation can be introduced into a species by mutation, genetic drift and reshuffling of genes in sexual reproduction, and also through the movement of populations. These processes, along with others, such as the directional selection process and the erosion of genes (changes in the frequency of genotypes over time), can lead towards evolution. Evolution is defined as changes in the genome over time as well as changes in phenotype (the expression of genotypes in individuals).
Students can better understand the concept of phylogeny through incorporating evolutionary thinking into all aspects of biology. In a recent study conducted by Grunspan and colleagues., it was shown that teaching students about the evidence for evolution increased their understanding of evolution during a college-level course in biology.

Evolution in Action
Scientists have studied evolution by looking in the past, studying fossils, and comparing species. They also study living organisms. Evolution isn't a flims event; it is an ongoing process. Bacteria transform and resist antibiotics, viruses reinvent themselves and escape new drugs and animals alter their behavior to the changing environment. The results are often visible.
It wasn't until the 1980s when biologists began to realize that natural selection was also at work. The key to this is that different traits result in an individual rate of survival and reproduction, and can be passed down from one generation to the next.
In the past, if one particular allele - the genetic sequence that controls coloration - was present in a group of interbreeding organisms, it could quickly become more prevalent than other alleles. In time, this could mean that the number of black moths within the population could increase. The same is true for many other characteristics--including morphology and behavior--that vary among populations of organisms.
It is easier to see evolutionary change when the species, like bacteria, 에볼루션 카지노 게이밍 [Www.Annunciogratis.Net] has a high generation turnover. Since 1988, 에볼루션 게이밍 Richard Lenski, a biologist, has studied twelve populations of E.coli that descend from a single strain. The samples of each population have been collected frequently and more than 500.000 generations of E.coli have been observed to have passed.
Lenski's research has demonstrated that mutations can alter the rate at which change occurs and the effectiveness at which a population reproduces. It also demonstrates that evolution takes time, something that is hard for some to accept.
Another example of microevolution is that mosquito genes that are resistant to pesticides appear more frequently in populations in which insecticides are utilized. This is due to the fact that the use of pesticides creates a pressure that favors individuals who have resistant genotypes.
The rapid pace of evolution taking place has led to an increasing recognition of its importance in a world shaped by human activity, including climate changes, pollution and the loss of habitats that hinder many species from adjusting. Understanding evolution can help you make better decisions regarding the future of the planet and its inhabitants.
