Evolution
• Over time- Millions of years ago
• Random- can’t be sure when happens
• Variation- from one form to another
• Natural Selection- not all organisms live

Microevolution• Causes-mutation, genetic flow/drift,
natural selection
• Population changes at/below species level
• Example-House Sparrow and size differences

House Sparrows•Bigger Birds in North
•Smaller birds in South•Cause is Natural Selection
•Bigger tolerate colder conditions

Imperfections of adaptation
• Imperfection of adaptation was as follows – Adaptation fell short of an ideal– No incurred costs of the imperfections
• Meaning animal is not affected negatively

Example of Imperfections
• An Example of imperfection
• Imperfections in vertibite optics – Retina ”’inside out’” making:
• A small Blind spot in vision

Evolution Conclusion
• Natural Selection favors randomness and imperfection
• All animals have one common ancestor
• Evolution happens in lots of time
• How species are related by DNA
