1 Evolution 8 th Grade Science Mr. Banks
2 Evolution is a scientific theory Lets discuss for a moment what a scientific theory is.
3 Hypothesis vs theory vs law Hypothesis - a proposed explanation for a natural occurrence based on observations. Can be disproven via experimentation Can never be proven right, more evidence can be gathered to support the hypothesis, but it can never be definitively proven The term is usually used to describe an explanation that does not have much supporting evidence yet.
4 Hypothesis vs theory vs law Theory - a hypothesis or group of hypotheses that have been supported repeatedly by different experiments or evidence. Accepted as a good explanation of a phenomenon. A theory is valid as long as significant evidence has not been accumulated to dispute it. Like a hypothesis, it can never be proven right
5 Hypothesis vs theory vs law Law a description of repeated experimental observations without an explanation of how they occur. The observed phenomenon always occurs without exception under the expected conditions. Can be disproven with evidence that contradicts the law. Yet again, it can never be proven right.

10 Evolution: Evolution is a change in the gene pool of a population of organisms over time. Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

15 Geneticists have the ability to actually alter a species by changing genes.

17 Geneticist have the ability to actually alter a species by changing genes. This is a picture of a beak in a genetically altered chicken that grew teeth. (this is an extreme example)
18 Geneticist have the ability to actually alter a species by changing genes. I have altered the genes of bacteria many times to make certain proteins that I wanted to create. I have also used selective breeding to create strains of mice that have traits I m interested in studying.

31 Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace published their views of evolutionary theory in 1859, these views are mostly what form our current ideas on evolution.
32 Natural Selection The gradual process by which traits become more or less common due to their effect on the reproductive success of an organism in its environment.
33 Survival of the fittest the individuals that are best adapted to their environment are more likely to reproduce.
34 Survival of the fittest the individuals that are best adapted to their environment are more likely to reproduce. Meaning that the best individuals will reproduce more and spread their successful traits.
35 Survival of the fittest the individuals that are best adapted to their environment are more likely to reproduce. Meaning that the best individuals will reproduce more and spread their successful traits. This is one of the major components of evolutionary theory.
