inheritance of aqcuired characteristics
Darwin: Over population
more offspring produce than can survive

develop population compete for necessities
young die, but adults stay constant

Survival of fittest
variations that give advantages over other species

with favorable variation reproduce and pass on genes

eventually make new species

5 conditions of population for hardy weinberg principle
- Population is very large
- there are no mutations that affect the gene pool
- Mating between individuals in pollution is random
There is no net migration of individuals into or out of the population - The genes in the population are equally successful at reproducing
Equation for Hardy Weinberg
p + q = 1
p^2+ 2pq+ q^2=1

Mircoevolution: Assortive Mating
If mate chosen, by phenotype and proximity
will effect ratio of genotype
usually allele frequency stay constant
Microevolution: Mutation
change frequency
shift equlibria
Microevoultion: Gene Flow
Migrate bw population loss in/gain of gene
change composition of population gene pool
Speciation
evolution of new species by group that can interbreed freely but not with other members of the species
Speciation: Deme
small local poluaitons
they really resemble each other
eg beavers
Speciation: Development of New species
when species can’t mate anymore
make a new species
due to gentic variation, chang in enviroment, etc
Speciation: Evolutionary History
Dissimilar special evolved form common ancestor
ex: convergent, parallel, adpative raditaion
Speciation: Isolation
Caused by geographic isolation
no gene flow
changes will eventually cause a new species and mating with the other group is impossible
