Small killifish eat juvenile guppies
Large pike-cichlids eat adult guppies
Guppies in populations with pike-cichlid predators
begin reproducing at a younger age and are smaller
at maturity than guppies in populations preyed on by
killifish

Changes in populations happened within 11 years
Age and size at sexual maturity change
depending on predators
Moving guppies to pools with different
predators changes size and age of maturity
in population

recombination of alleles
new arrangements in every offspring
new combinations = new phenotypes

Beak depth
random changes to DNA

1. Mutation & Variation
Mutation creates variation
new mutations are constantly appearing
Mutation changes DNA sequence
changes amino acid sequence?
changes protein?
2. Gene Flow
Movement of individuals &
alleles in & out of populations
seed & pollen distribution by
wind & insect
migration of animals
sub-populations may have
changes structure?
different allele frequencies
changes function?
AP Biology
causes genetic mixing
changes in protein may
change phenotype &
therefore change fitness
across regions
reduce differences
between populations

SEXUAL SELECTION
Favors traits with no advantage for survival
other than fact that males/females prefer them
Leads to pronounced differences between sexes

4. Genetic drift
Effect of chance events
founder effect
small group splinters off & starts a new colony
bottleneck
some factor (disaster) reduces population to
small number & then population recovers &
expands again
KIN SELECTION
Natural selection that favors altruistic
behavior by enhancing reproductive
success of relatives
Bird that calls to warn others is in danger of being eaten,
but does it anyway.
Founder effect
When a new population is started
by only a few individuals
some rare alleles may be at high
frequency; others may
be missing
skew the gene pool of
new population
human populations that

started from small group
of colonists

Bottleneck effect
When large population is drastically
Cheetahs
All cheetahs share a small number of alleles
reduced by a disaster
famine, natural disaster, loss of habitat…
loss of variation by chance event
less than 1% diversity
as if all cheetahs are
identical twins
2 bottlenecks
alleles lost from gene pool
not due to fitness
narrows the gene pool

last 100 years
Ice Age
poaching & loss of habitat

Conservation issues
Bottlenecking is an important

concept in conservation
biology of endangered
species
5. Natural selection
Differential survival & reproduction due
to changing environmental conditions
climate change
food source availability
predators, parasites, diseases
loss of alleles from gene pool
reduces variation
reduces adaptability
toxins
combinations of alleles
that provide “fitness”
increase in the population
adaptive evolutionary change
Breeding programs must
consciously
outcross

POLYGENIC traits are controlled by
two or more genes.
DIRECTIONAL SELECTION
KEY
Food becomes scarce.
Low mortality,
high fitness
High mortality,
low fitness
A bell shaped curve is
typical of polygenic traits
Individuals at one end of the curve have higher
fitness than individuals in middle or at other end.
Graph shifts as some individuals fail to survive
at one end and succeed and reproduce at other

EXAMPLE OF DIRECTIONAL SELECTION
Beak size varies in a population
STABILIZING SELECTION
Birds with bigger beaks can feed
more easily on harder, thicker
shelled seeds.
A food shortage causes small and
medium size seeds to run low.
Birds with bigger beaks would be
selected for and increase in numbers
in population.

STABILIZING SELECTION
Section 16-2
Male birds use
their plumage to
attract mates.
Male birds with
less brilliant and
showy plumage
are less likely to
attract a mate
Male birds with
showy plumage
are more likely to
attract a mate.
Stabilizing Selection
Key
Low mortality,
high fitness
High mortality,
low fitness
Selection
against both
extremes keep
curve narrow
and in same
place.
Brightness of
Male birds with
showier, brightly
colored plumage
also attract
predators, and
are less likely to
live long enough to
find a mate.
Individuals in center of the curve have higher
fitness than individuals at either end
Graph stays in same place but narrows as
more organisms in middle are produced.
EXAMPLE OF STABILIZING SELECTION
Human babies born with low birth
weight are less likely to survive.
Babies born too large have difficulty
being born.
Average size babies are selected for.
The most
fit is male
bird in the
middle-showy, but not
too showy.

DISRUPTIVE SELECTION
EXAMPLE OF DISRUPTIVE SELECTION
A bird population lives in area
where climate change causes medium
size seeds become scarce while large
and small seeds are still plentiful.
Individuals at extremes of the curve
have higher fitness than individuals in middle.
Birds with bigger or smaller beaks
would have greater fitness and the
population may split into TWO
GROUPS. One that eats small
seeds and one that eats large seeds.
Can cause graph to split into two.
Selection creates two DIFFERENT PHENOTYPES

WHAT IS A SPECIES?
• Defined by Ernst Mayr
• Population whose members can interbreed
AND produce viable, fertile offspring
TWO DISTINCT SPECIES
Body and coloration are similar . . .
but their songs and other behaviors are different enough
to prevent interbreeding
AP Biology
In the wild lions and tigers don’t interbreed
but in zoos… can get hybrids
LIGER - Male lion X female tiger
TIGON- Male tiger X female lion
Largest cat in world
. . . but male ligers are sterile

CURRENT DEBATE
NOT over whether evolution happens
… overwhelming evidence here!
BUT . . .Does speciation happen gradually
OR rapidly in response to environmental change?
GRADUALISM
Change happens slowly
