The Academy's Evolution Site
Biology is a key concept in biology. The Academies are involved in helping those who are interested in science comprehend the evolution theory and 바카라 에볼루션 how it can be applied in all areas of scientific research.
This site provides a wide range of sources for students, teachers as well as general readers about evolution. It also includes important video clips from NOVA and WGBH produced science programs on DVD.
Tree of Life
The Tree of Life is an ancient symbol that symbolizes the interconnectedness of all life. It is used in many religions and cultures as a symbol of unity and love. It has many practical applications in addition to providing a framework for understanding the history of species and how they react to changing environmental conditions.
Early attempts to represent the world of biology were founded on categorizing organisms on their physical and metabolic characteristics. These methods, which relied on the sampling of different parts of living organisms, or sequences of short fragments of their DNA significantly increased the variety that could be included in a tree of life2. These trees are largely composed of eukaryotes, while the diversity of bacterial species is greatly underrepresented3,4.
Genetic techniques have greatly broadened our ability to represent the Tree of Life by circumventing the requirement for direct observation and experimentation. Particularly, molecular techniques allow us to build trees by using sequenced markers, such as the small subunit ribosomal gene.
Despite the rapid growth of the Tree of Life through genome sequencing, much biodiversity still awaits discovery. This is especially the case for microorganisms which are difficult to cultivate and which are usually only found in one sample5. Recent analysis of all genomes resulted in a rough draft of a Tree of Life. This includes a variety of archaea, bacteria, and other organisms that have not yet been identified or their diversity is not fully understood6.
This expanded Tree of Life is particularly useful in assessing the diversity of an area, helping to determine if certain habitats require special protection. The information is useful in many ways, including identifying new drugs, combating diseases and enhancing crops. It is also beneficial for 에볼루션 코리아 conservation efforts. It helps biologists determine those areas that are most likely contain cryptic species with significant metabolic functions that could be vulnerable to anthropogenic change. While funds to protect biodiversity are important, the most effective way to conserve the world's biodiversity is to empower the people of developing nations with the information they require to act locally and support conservation.
Phylogeny
A phylogeny, also called an evolutionary tree, reveals the connections between various groups of organisms. By using molecular information similarities and differences in morphology, or ontogeny (the process of the development of an organism) scientists can construct a phylogenetic tree which illustrates the evolutionary relationship between taxonomic groups. The concept of phylogeny is fundamental to understanding the evolution of biodiversity, evolution and genetics.
A basic phylogenetic tree (see Figure PageIndex 10 Finds the connections between organisms with similar traits and evolved from an ancestor that shared traits. These shared traits can be homologous, or analogous. Homologous traits are identical in their evolutionary origins, while analogous traits look similar but do not have the identical origins. Scientists organize similar traits into a grouping called a clade. All members of a clade have a common characteristic, 바카라 에볼루션 for example, amniotic egg production. They all came from an ancestor who had these eggs. The clades then join to form a phylogenetic branch that can determine which organisms have the closest connection to each other.
Scientists utilize DNA or RNA molecular information to construct a phylogenetic graph that is more accurate and detailed. This data is more precise than morphological data and provides evidence of the evolution history of an organism or group. Researchers can utilize Molecular Data to estimate the evolutionary age of organisms and determine how many organisms have the same ancestor.
The phylogenetic relationships between organisms are influenced by many factors, including phenotypic flexibility, a type of behavior that alters in response to specific environmental conditions. This can cause a characteristic to appear more similar to a species than to another, obscuring the phylogenetic signals. This problem can be mitigated by using cladistics, which incorporates an amalgamation of homologous and analogous features in the tree.
In addition, phylogenetics helps determine the duration and speed of speciation. This information can help conservation biologists decide which species they should protect from the threat of extinction. Ultimately, it is the preservation of phylogenetic diversity that will result in an ecosystem that is complete and balanced.
Evolutionary Theory
The central theme of evolution is that organisms develop various characteristics over time based on their interactions with their environment. Many theories of evolution have been proposed by a wide range of scientists, 바카라 에볼루션 including the Islamic naturalist Nasir al-Din al-Tusi (1201-1274) who proposed that a living organism develop slowly in accordance with its requirements, the Swedish botanist Carolus Linnaeus (1707-1778) who developed the modern hierarchical taxonomy Jean-Baptiste Lamarck (1744-1829) who suggested that the use or non-use of traits cause changes that can be passed onto offspring.
In the 1930s & 1940s, ideas from different fields, including natural selection, genetics & particulate inheritance, merged to form a modern evolutionary theory. This describes how evolution is triggered by the variations in genes within a population and how these variations change with time due to natural selection. This model, which is known as genetic drift or mutation, gene flow and sexual selection, is a cornerstone of the current evolutionary biology and can be mathematically described.
Recent advances in the field of evolutionary developmental biology have demonstrated how variations can be introduced to a species through genetic drift, mutations and reshuffling of genes during sexual reproduction and migration between populations. These processes, as well as others, such as directionally-selected selection and erosion of genes (changes to the frequency of genotypes over time), can lead towards evolution. Evolution is defined by changes in the genome over time and changes in the phenotype (the expression of genotypes in individuals).
Students can gain a better understanding of phylogeny by incorporating evolutionary thinking in all areas of biology. In a recent study conducted by Grunspan and colleagues. It was found that teaching students about the evidence for evolution boosted their acceptance of evolution during an undergraduate biology course.

Evolution in Action
Traditionally scientists have studied evolution by studying fossils, comparing species and observing living organisms. Evolution isn't a flims moment; it is an ongoing process that continues to be observed today. The virus reinvents itself to avoid new drugs and bacteria evolve to resist antibiotics. Animals alter their behavior as a result of a changing environment. The results are often apparent.
It wasn't until late-1980s that biologists realized that natural selection could be seen in action, as well. The key to this is that different traits can confer an individual rate of survival and reproduction, and they can be passed on from one generation to the next.
In the past, if an allele - the genetic sequence that determines colour - was found in a group of organisms that interbred, it could be more common than other allele. In time, this could mean the number of black moths within a 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, has a high generation turnover. Since 1988, Richard Lenski, a biologist, has studied twelve populations of E.coli that are descended from one strain. Samples of each population have been taken regularly and more than 500.000 generations of E.coli have passed.
Lenski's research has shown that mutations can drastically alter the rate at the rate at which a population reproduces, and consequently, the rate at which it evolves. It also shows that evolution takes time, which is difficult for some to accept.
Another example of microevolution is that mosquito genes that are resistant to pesticides show up more often in areas where insecticides are used. This is due to pesticides causing an exclusive pressure that favors those with resistant genotypes.
The rapidity of evolution has led to an increasing recognition of its importance, especially in a world that is largely shaped by human activity. This includes climate change, pollution, and habitat loss that hinders many species from adapting. Understanding evolution can help us make smarter decisions about the future of our planet, as well as the life of its inhabitants.
