} Since the first single-celled life began on Earth, life has taken amazing and unique forms ◦ Ourselves included
} We can trace the large-scale processes of evolution through phylogeny

} Macroevolution: Large-scale evolutionary changes including the formation of new species and taxa
} We can examine this to study evolutionary relationships between species

} Regardless of how different species are, there was a first species we all evolved from ◦ A single-celled organism
} How did this first cell arise? ◦ How did organic matter first appear?

} Abiogenesis: The formation of life from non-organic material
} many of the building blocks of life can be formed under natural conditions ◦ Amino acids,
hydrocarbon chains } Some have even
been found within comets

} We know that the elements of life can form naturally
} Scientists have not yet fully recreated the exact environmental conditions that existed billions of years ago

} It is believed that life has existed on Earth for 3.5 billion years ◦ 2 billion years later,
eukaryotic cells evolved ◦ Several more hundred
million years later, multicellular organisms appeared

} Cambrian Explosion: a period of time in which the evolution of most major animal phyla occurred over 40 million years
} One of the most significant periods of evolution in Earth’s history

} 250 million years ago, dinosaurs first appeared
} By 200 million years ago, they truly ruled the earth
} At their height, dinosaurs were an amazingly diverse group

} For all their success, dinosaurs were wiped out 65 million years ago ◦ At least 300 species went
extinct when a 200 km wide asteroid collided with Earth
} Although the loss of life was devastating, this was not the only (or the largest) mass extinction in Earth’s history

} There have been many mass extinctions in history, the largest of which occurred 251 million years ago in the Permian Era
} Most life was wiped out in this extinction ◦ 90% of all marine life
} This event eventually gave rise to dinosaurs

} How different would the Earth be today if these extinctions had not occurred?
} Gene pools have shrunk, shifted, and been altered
} These extinctions have led to genetic drift on a massive scale

} We are in the midst of another mass extinction today
} Species are disappearing today at an enormous rate
} Humans, and the impact we have on Earth, are the cause

} From that first organism all life developed } We’ve seen how evolutionary biologists
attempt to trace how this life has developed } This includes us! Have humans also evolved,
or are we the exception? ◦ This will be our focus tomorrow
