2020 NEW CED

UNIT 7-NATURAL SELECTION

TOPIC 7.1 Introduction to Natural Selection

ENDURING UNDERSTANDING
EVO-1 Evolution is characterized by a change in the genetic makeup of a population over time and is supported by multiple lines of evidence.

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

EVO-1.C Describe the causes of natural selection.

 

 

ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE
EVO-1.C.1 Natural selection is a major mechanism of evolution.

EVO-1.C.2 According to Darwin’s theory of natural selection, competition for limited resources results in differential survival. Individuals with more favorable phenotypes are more likely to survive and produce more offspring, thus passing traits to subsequent generations

EVO-1.D

Explain how natural selection affects populations.

EVO-1.D.1 Evolutionary fitness is measured by reproductive success..

EVO-1.D.2 Biotic and abiotic environments can be more or less stable/fluctuating, and this affects the rate and direction of evolution; different genetic variations can be selected in each generation

 

TOPIC 7.2 Natural Selection

ENDURING UNDERSTANDING

EVO-1 Evolution is characterized by a change in the genetic makeup of a population over time and is supported by multiple lines of evidence.

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

EVO-1.E

Describe the importance of phenotypic variation in a population.

ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE

EVO-1.E.1 Natural selection acts on phenotypic variations in populations.

EVO-1.E.2 Environments change and apply selective pressures to populations.

 

ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLES

§ Flowering time in relation to global climate change

§ Peppered moth

EVO-1.E.3 Some phenotypic variations significantly increase or decrease fitness of the organism in particular environments.

 

ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLES
 § Sickle cell anemia

 § DDT resistance in insects

 

TOPIC 7.3 Artificial Selection

ENDURING UNDERSTANDING

EVO-1 Evolution is characterized by a change in the genetic makeup of a population over time and is supported by multiple lines of evidence.

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

EVO-1.F

Explain how humans can affect diversity within a population.

ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE

EVO-1.F.1 Through artificial selection, humans affect variation in other species

EVO-1.G Explain the relationship between changes in the environment and evolutionary changes in the population.

EVO-1.G.1 Convergent evolution occurs when similar selective pressures result in similar phenotypic adaptations in different populations or species.

 


 

TOPIC 7.4 Population Genetics

ENDURING UNDERSTANDING
EVO-1 Evolution is characterized by a change in the genetic makeup of a population over time and is supported by multiple lines of evidence.

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

EVO-1.H Explain how random occurrences affect the genetic makeup of a population.

ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE

 EVO-1.H.1 Evolution is also driven by random occurrences—
a. Mutation is a random process that contributes to evolution.
b. Genetic drift is a nonselective process occurring in small populations—
   
i. Bottlenecks.
  
ii. Founder effect.
c. Migration/gene flow can drive evolution.

EVO-1.I Describe the role of random processes in the evolution of specific populations.

EVO-1.I.1 Reduction of genetic variation within a given population can increase the differences between populations of the same species

EVO-1.J Describe the change in the genetic makeup of a population over time

EVO-1.J.1 Mutation results in genetic variation, which provides phenotypes on which natural selection acts.

 

TOPIC 7.5 Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium

ENDURING UNDERSTANDING
EVO-1 Evolution is characterized by a change in the genetic makeup of a population over time and is supported by multiple lines of evidence.

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

EVO-1.K Describe the conditions under which allele and genotype frequencies will change in populations.

EVO-1.K.1 Hardy-Weinberg is a model for describing and predicting allele frequencies in a nonevolving population. Conditions for a population or an allele to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium are—
(1) a large population size,
(2) absence of migration,
(3) no net mutations,
(4) random mating, and
(5) absence of selection.

These conditions are seldom met, but they provide a valuable null hypothesis..

EVO-1.K.2 Allele frequencies in a population can be calculated from genotype frequencies

 ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE
~Graphical analysis of allele frequencies in a population

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

EVO-1.L Explain the impacts on the population if any of the conditions of Hardy-Weinberg are not met.

ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE
EVO-1.L.1
Changes in allele frequencies provide evidence for the occurrence of evolution in a population.

EVO-1.L.2 Small populations are more susceptible to random environmental impact than large populations.


 

TOPIC 7.6 Evidence of Evolution

ENDURING UNDERSTANDING
EVO-1 Evolution is characterized by a change in the genetic makeup of a population over time and is supported by multiple lines of evidence.

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

EVO-1.M Describe the types of data that provide evidence for evolution.

ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE
EVO-1.M.1 Evolution is supported by scientific evidence from many disciplines (geographical, geological, physical, biochemical, and mathematical data).

EVO-1.N  Explain how morphological, biochemical, and geological data provide evidence that organisms have changed over time.

EVO-1.N.1 Molecular, morphological, and genetic evidence from extant and extinct organisms adds to our understanding of evolution—
a. Fossils can be dated by a variety of methods. These include:

   i.The age of the rocks where a fossil is found

   ii. The rate of decay of isotopes including carbon-14

   iii. Geographical data b. Morphological homologies, including vestigial
        structures, represent features shared by common ancestry.

EVO-1.N.2 A comparison of DNA nucleotide sequences and/or protein amino acid sequences provides evidence for evolution and common ancestry

ENDURING UNDERSTANDING
EVO-2 Organisms are linked by lines of descent from common ancestry

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

EVO-2.B Describe the fundamental molecular and cellular features shared across all domains of life, which provide evidence of common ancestry

ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE
EVO-2.B.1Many fundamental molecular and cellular features and processes are conserved across organisms.

EVO-2.B.2 Structural and functional evidence supports the relatedness of organisms in all domains

 

TOPIC 7.7 Common Ancestry

ENDURING UNDERSTANDING

EVO-2 Organisms are linked by lines of descent from common ancestry

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

EVO-2.C Describe structural and functional evidence on cellular and molecular levels that provides evidence for the common ancestry of all eukaryotes.

ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE
EVO-2.C.1 Structural evidence indicates common ancestry of all eukaryotes—
a. Membrane-bound organelles
b. Linear chromosomes
c. Genes that contain introns

 

TOPIC 7.8 Continuing Evolution

ENDURING UNDERSTANDING
EVO-3 Life continues to evolve within a changing environment

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

EVO-3.A Explain how evolution is
an ongoing process in all living organisms.

ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE -
EVO 3.A.1 Populations of organisms continue to evolve.

EVO-3.A.2 All species have evolved and continue to evolve—
a. Genomic changes over time.
b. Continuous change in the fossil record.
c. Evolution of resistance to antibiotics, pesticides, herbicides, or chemotherapy drugs.
d. Pathogens evolve and cause emergent diseases.

 


 

TOPIC 7.9 Phylogeny

ENDURING UNDERSTANDING
EVO-3 Life continues to evolve within a changing environment.

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

EVO-3.B Describe the types of evidence that can be used to infer an evolutionary relationship

 

 

ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE
EVO-3.B.1 Phylogenetic trees and cladograms show evolutionary relationships among lineages—

a. Phylogenetic trees and cladograms both show relationships between lineages, but phylogenetic trees show the amount of change over time calibrated by fossils or a molecular clock.

 b. Traits that are either gained or lost during evolution can be used to construct phylogenetic trees and cladograms—

    i. Shared characters are present in more than one lineage.

    ii. Shared, derived characters indicate common ancestry and are
         informative for the construction of phylogenetic trees and cladograms.   
    iii. The out-group represents the lineage that is least closely related to
          the remainder of the organisms in the phylogenetic tree or cladogram.

c. Molecular data typically provide more accurate and reliable evidence than morphological traits in the construction of phylogenetic trees or cladograms.

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

 EVO-3.C Explain how a phylogenetic tree and/or cladogram can be used to infer evolutionary relatedness.

EVO-3.C.1 Phylogenetic trees and cladograms can be used to illustrate speciation that has occurred. The nodes on a tree represent the most recent common ancestor of any two groups or lineages.

EVO-3.C.2 Phylogenetic trees and cladograms can be constructed from morphological similarities of living or fossil species and from DNA and protein sequence similarities.

EVO-3.C.3 Phylogenetic trees and cladograms represent hypotheses and are constantly being revised, based on evidence

 


 

TOPIC 7.10 Speciation

ENDURING UNDERSTANDING
EVO-3 Life continues to evolve within a changing environment.

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

EVO-3.D Describe the conditions under which new species may arise.

ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE
EVO-3.D.1 Speciation may occur when two populations become reproductively isolated from each other.

EVO-3.D.2 The biological species concept provides a commonly used definition of species for sexually reproducing organisms. It states that species can be defined as a group capable of interbreeding and exchanging genetic information to produce viable, fertile offspring.

EVO-3.E  Describe the rate of evolution and speciation under different ecological conditions.

EVO-3.E.1 Punctuated equilibrium is when evolution occurs rapidly after a long period of stasis. Gradualism is when evolution occurs slowly over hundreds of thousands or millions of years.

EVO-3.E.2 Divergent evolution occurs when adaptation to new habitats results in phenotypic diversification. Speciation rates can be especially rapid during times of adaptive radiation as new habitats become available

EVO-3.F Explain the processes and mechanisms that drive speciation.

ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE
EVO-3.F.1 Speciation results in diversity of life forms.

ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLES
§ Hawaiian Drosophilia
§ Caribbean Anolis
§ Apple maggot Rhagoletis

EVO-3.F.2 Speciation may be sympatric or allopatric.

EVO-3.F.3 Various prezygotic and postzygotic mechanisms can maintain reproductive isolation and prevent gene flow between populations.


 

TOPIC 7.11 Extinction

ENDURING UNDERSTANDING
EVO-3
Life continues to evolve within a changing environment.

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

EVO-3.G Describe factors that lead to the extinction of a population.

ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE
EVO-3.G.1
Extinctions have occurred throughout Earth’s history.

EVO-3. G.2 Extinction rates can be rapid during times of ecological stress.

EVO-3.H Explain how the risk of extinction is affected by changes in the environment.

EVO-3.H.1 Human activity can drive changes in ecosystems that cause extinctions.

EVO-3.I Explain species diversity in an ecosystem as a function of speciation and extinction rates

EVO-3.I.1 The amount of diversity in an ecosystem can be determined by the rate of speciation and the rate of extinction.

EVO-3.J Explain how extinction can make new environments available for adaptive radiation

EVO-3.J.1 Extinction provides newly available niches that can then be exploited by different species.

 

TOPIC 7.12 Variations in Populations

ENDURING UNDERSTANDING
SYI-3 Naturally occurring diversity among and between components within biological systems affects interactions with the environment.

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

SYI-3.D Explain how the genetic diversity of a species or population affects its ability to withstand environmental pressures.

 

 

ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE
SYI-3.D.1 The level of variation in a population affects population dynamics—

a. Population ability to respond to changes in the environment is influenced by genetic diversity. Species and populations with little genetic diversity are at risk of decline or extinction.

ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLES
§ California condors
§ Black-footed ferrets
§ Prairie chickens
§ Potato blight
§ Corn rust
§ Genetic diversity and selective pressures
§ Antibiotic resistance in bacteria.
 
(Not all individuals in a diverse population are susceptible to a disease outbreak.)

 b. Genetically diverse populations are more resilient to environmental perturbation  because they are more likely to contain individuals who can withstand the environmental pressure.

 c. Alleles that are adaptive in one environmental condition may be deleterious in another because of different selective pressures.

 

 


 

TOPIC 7.13 Origins of Life on Earth

ENDURING UNDERSTANDING
SYI-3 Naturally occurring diversity among and between components within biological systems affects interactions with the environment

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

SYI-3.E Describe the scientific evidence that provides support for models of the origin of life on Earth.

ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE
SYI-3.E.1 Several hypotheses about the origin of life on Earth are supported with scientific evidence—
 a. Geological evidence provides support for models of the origin of life on Earth.

    i. Earth formed approximately 4.6 billion years ago (bya). The environment was too
       hostile for life until 3.9 bya, and the earliest fossil evidence for life dates to 3.5
      bya. Taken together, this evidence provides a plausible range of dates when the
      origin of life could have occurred.

 b. There are several models about the origin of life on Earth—

    i. Primitive Earth provided inorganic precursors from which organic molecules
        could have been synthesized because of the presence of available free energy
        and the absence of a significant quantity of atmospheric oxygen (O2).
   ii. Organic molecules could have been transported to Earth by a meteorite or other
          celestial event.

c. Chemical experiments have shown that it is possible to form complex organic |  
        molecules from inorganic molecules in the absence of life—

   i. Organic molecules/monomers served as building blocks for the formation of
        more complex molecules, including amino acids and nucleotides.

Big Idea 1: The process of evolution drives the diversity and unity of life.

Enduring understanding 1.A: Change in the genetic makeup of a population over time is evolution.

    Essential knowledge 1.A.1: Natural selection is a major mechanism of evolution.

        a. According to Darwin's theory of natural selection, competition for limited resources results in differential survival. Individuals with more
        favorable phenotypes are more likely to survive and produce more offspring, thus passing traits to subsequent generations.

        b. Evolutionary fitness is measured by reproductive success.

        c. Genetic variation and mutation play roles in natural selection. A diverse gene pool is important for the survival of a species in a changing
            environment.

        d. Environments can be more or less stable or fluctuating, and this affects evolutionary rate and direction; different genetic variations can be
        selected in each generation.

        e. An adaptation is a genetic variation that is favored by selection and is manifested as a trait that provides an advantage to an organism in a
            particular environment.

         f. In addition to natural selection, chance and random events can influence the evolutionary process, especially for small populations.

         g. Conditions for a population or an allele to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium are: (1) a large population size, (2) absence of migration, (3) no
             net mutations, (4) random mating and (5) absence of selection. These conditions are seldom met.

         h. Mathematical approaches are used to calculate changes in allele frequency, providing evidence for the occurrence of evolution in a
              population.

            To foster student understanding of this concept, instructors can choose an illustrative example such as:
             •  Graphical analysis of allele frequencies in a population
              •  Application of the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equation

Learning Objectives:
LO 1.1 The student is able to convert a data set from a table of numbers that reflect a change in the genetic makeup of a population over time and to apply mathematical methods and conceptual understandings to investigate the cause(s) and effect(s) of this change. [See SP 1.5, 2.2]

LO 1.2 The student is able to evaluate evidence provided by data to qualitatively and quantitatively investigate the role of natural selection in evolution. [See SP 2.2, 5.3]

LO 1.3 The student is able to apply mathematical methods to data from a real or simulated population to predict what will happen to the population in the future. [See SP 2.2]

    Essential knowledge 1.A.2: Natural selection acts on phenotypic variations in populations.

        a. Environments change and act as selective mechanism on populations.
           
To foster student understanding of this concept, instructors can choose an illustrative example such as:
          •  Flowering time in relation to global climate change
              
  Peppered moth

        b. Phenotypic variations are not directed by the environment but occur through random changes in the DNA and through new gene
             combinations.

        c. Some phenotypic variations significantly increase or decrease fitness of the organism and the population.
           
To foster student understanding of this concept, instructors can choose an illustrative example such as:
          
 •  Sickle cell anemia
            
  Peppered moth
            
  DDT resistance in insects

        d. Humans impact variation in other species.
            
To foster student understanding of this concept, instructors can choose an illustrative example such as:
           •  Artificial selection
             •  Loss of genetic diversity within a crop species
      
        •  Overuse of antibiotics

Learning Objectives:
LO 1.4 The student is able to evaluate data-based evidence that describes evolutionary changes in the genetic makeup of a population over time. [See SP 5.3]

LO 1.5 The student is able to connect evolutionary changes in a population over time to a change in the environment.[See SP 7.1]  

 

    Essential knowledge 1.A.3: Evolutionary change is also driven by random processes.

         a. Genetic drift is a nonselective process occurring in small populations.

         b. Reduction of genetic variation within a given population can increase the differences between populations of the same species.

 Learning Objectives:
LO 1.6 The student is able to use data from mathematical models based on the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium to analyze genetic drift and effects of selection in the evolution of specific populations. [See SP 1.4, 2.1]

LO 1.7 The student is able to justify data from mathematical models based on the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium to analyze genetic drift and the effects of selection in the evolution of specific populations. [See SP 2.1]

LO 1.8 The student is able to make predictions about the effects of genetic drift, migration and artificial selection on the genetic makeup of a population. [See SP 6.4]

    Essential knowledge 1.A.4: Biological evolution is supported by scientific evidence from many disciplines, including mathematics.

         a. Scientific evidence of biological evolution uses information from geographical, geological, physical, chemical and mathematical
             applications.

        b. Molecular, morphological and genetic information of existing and extinct organisms add to our understanding of evolution.
 
           Evidence of student learning is a demonstrated understanding of each of the following:
  
               1. Fossils can be dated by a variety of methods that provide evidence for evolution. These include the age of the rocks where a fossil is
                   found, the rate of decay of isotopes including
carbon-14, the relationships within phylogenetic trees, and the mathematical calculations
                   that take into account information from chemical properties and/or geographical data.
                 ✘✘ The details of these methods are beyond the scope of this course and the AP Exam.

                 2. Morphological homologies represent features shared by common ancestry. Vestigial structures are remnants of functional structures,    
                      which can be compared to fossils and provide evidence for evolution.

                 3. Biochemical and genetic similarities, in particular DNA nucleotide and protein sequences, provide evidence for evolution and
                      ancestry.

                  4. Mathematical models and simulations can be used to illustrate and support evolutionary concepts.
                   To foster student understanding of this concept, instructors can choose an illustrative example such as:
                 •  Graphical analyses of allele frequencies in a population
                 •  Analysis of sequence data sets
                           Analysis of phylogenetic trees
                •  Construction of phylogenetic trees based on sequence data

Learning Objectives:
LO 1.9 The student is able to evaluate evidence provided by data from many scientific disciplines that support biological evolution. See SP 5.3]

LO 1.10 The student is able to refine evidence based on data from many scientific disciplines that support biological evolution. [See SP 5.2]

LO 1.11 The student is able to design a plan to answer scientific questions regarding how organisms have changed over time using information from morphology, biochemistry and geology. [See SP 4.2]

LO 1.12 The student is able to connect scientific evidence from many scientific disciplines to support the modern concept of evolution. [See SP 7.1]

LO 1.13 The student is able to construct and/or justify mathematical models, diagrams or simulations that represent processes of biological evolution. [See SP 1.1, 2.1]


Enduring understanding 1.B: Organisms are linked by lines of descent from common ancestry.

      Essential knowledge 1.B.1: Organisms share many conserved core processes and features that evolved and are widely distributed among
       organisms today.

         a. Structural and functional evidence supports the relatedness of all domains.
            Evidence of student learning is a demonstrated understanding of each of the following:
               1. DNA and RNA are carriers of genetic information through transcription, translation and replication. [See also 3.A.1 ]

               2. Major features of the genetic code are shared by all modern living systems. [See also 3.A.1]

               3. Metabolic pathways are conserved across all currently recognized domains. [See also 3.D.1]

          b. Structural evidence supports the relatedness of all eukaryotes. [See also 2.B.3, 4.A.2]
        To foster student understanding of this concept, instructors can choose an illustrative example such as:
 
          •  Cytoskeleton (a network of structural proteins that facilitate cell movement, morphological integrity and organelle transport)
            •  Membrane-bound organelles (mitochondria and/or chloroplasts)
          •  Linear chromosomes
            •  Endomembrane systems, including the nuclear envelope  

Learning Objectives:
LO 1.14 The student is able to pose scientific questions that correctly identify essential properties of shared, core life processes that provide insights into the history of life on Earth. [See SP 3.1]

LO 1.15 The student is able to describe specific examples of conserved core biological processes and features shared by all domains or within one domain of life, and how these shared, conserved core processes and features support the concept of common ancestry for all organisms. [See SP 7.2]

LO 1.16 The student is able to justify the scientific claim that organisms share many conserved core processes and features that evolved and are widely distributed among organisms today. [See SP 6.1]

        Essential knowledge 1.B.2: Phylogenetic trees and cladograms are graphical  representations (models) of evolutionary history that can be tested.

           a. Phylogenetic trees and cladograms can represent traits that are either derived or lost due to evolution.  
    
        To foster student understanding of this concept, instructors can choose an illustrative example such as:
              •  Number of heart chambers in animals
              •  Opposable thumbs
              •  Absence of legs in some sea mammals

             b. Phylogenetic trees and cladograms illustrate speciation that has occurred, in that relatedness of any two groups on the tree is shown by
                  how recently two groups had a common ancestor.

             c. Phylogenetic trees and cladograms can be constructed from morphological similarities of living or fossil species, and from DNA and        
                 protein sequence similarities, by employing computer programs that have sophisticated ways of measuring and representing relatedness
                 among organisms.

             d. Phylogenetic trees and cladograms are dynamic (i.e., phylogenetic trees and cladograms are constantly being revised), based on the
                 biological data used, new mathematical and computational ideas, and current and emerging knowledge.

Learning Objectives:
LO 1.17 The student is able to pose scientific questions about a group of organisms whose relatedness is described by a phylogenetic tree or cladogram in order to (1) identify shared characteristics, (2) make inferences about the evolutionary history of the group, and (3) identify character data that could extend or improve the phylogenetic tree. [See SP 3.1]

LO 1.18 The student is able to evaluate evidence provided by a data set in conjunction with a phylogenetic tree or a simple cladogram to determine evolutionary history and speciation. [See SP 5.3]

LO 1.19 The student is able create a phylogenetic tree or simple cladogram that correctly represents evolutionary history and speciation from a provided data set. [See SP 1.1]

Enduring understanding 1.C: Life continues to evolve within a changing environment.  

    Essential knowledge 1.C.1: Speciation and extinction have occurred throughout the Earth's history.

         a. Speciation rates can vary, especially when adaptive radiation occurs when new habitats become available.

         b. Species extinction rates are rapid at times of ecological stress. [See also 4.C.3]
          To foster student understanding of this concept, instructors can choose an illustrative example such as:
               •  Five major extinctions
               •  Human impact on ecosystems and species extinction rates
                   ✘✘ The names and dates of these extinctions are beyond the scope of this dates of course and the AP Exam.

Learning Objectives:
LO 1.20 The student is able to analyze data related to questions of  speciation and extinction throughout the Earth's history. [See SP 5.1]

LO 1.21 The student is able to design a plan for collecting data to investigate the scientific claim that speciation and extinction have occurred throughout the Earth's history. [See SP 4.2] 

     Essential knowledge 1.C.2: Speciation may occur when two populations become reproductively isolated from each other.

          a. Speciation results in diversity of life forms. Species can be physically separated by a geographic barrier such as an ocean or a mountain
              range, or various pre-and post-zygotic mechanisms can maintain reproductive isolation and prevent gene flow.

           b. New species arise from reproductive isolation over time, which can involve scales of hundreds of thousands or even millions of years, or
               speciation can occur rapidly through mechanisms such as polyploidy in plants.

 Learning Objectives:
LO 1.22 The student is able to use data from a real or simulated population(s), based on graphs or models of types of selection, to predict what will happen to the population in the future. [See SP 6.4]

LO 1.23 The student is able to justify the selection of data that address questions related to reproductive isolation and speciation. [See SP 4.1]

LO 1.24 The student is able to describe speciation in an isolated population and connect it to change in gene frequency, change in environment, natural selection and/or genetic drift. [See SP 7.2]  


    Essential knowledge 1.C.3: Populations of organisms continue to evolve.

         a. Scientific evidence supports the idea that evolution has occurred in all species.

         b. Scientific evidence supports the idea that evolution continues to occur.
          To foster student understanding of this concept, instructors can choose an illustrative example such as:
             •  Chemical resistance (mutations for resistance to antibiotics, pesticides, herbicides or chemotherapy drugs occur in the absence of
                          the chemical)

           •  Emergent diseases
             •  Observed directional phenotypic change in a population (Grants' observations of Darwin's finches in the Galapagos)
             •  A eukaryotic example that describes evolution of a structure or process such as heart chambers, limbs, the brain and the immune
                        system

Learning Objectives:
LO 1.25 The student is able to describe a model that represents evolution within a population. [See SP 1.2]

LO 1.26 The student is able to evaluate given data sets that illustrate evolution as an ongoing process. [See SP 5.3]  

Enduring understanding 1.D: The origin of living systems is explained by natural processes.

      Essential knowledge 1.D.1: There are several hypotheses about the natural origin of life on Earth, each with supporting scientific
      evidence.

           a. Scientific evidence supports the various models.
   
           Evidence of student learning is a demonstrated understanding of each of the following:
                       1. Primitive Earth provided inorganic precursors from which organic molecules could have been synthesized due to the presence of
                            available free energy and the absence of a significant quantity of oxygen.

                       2. In turn, these molecules served as monomers or building blocks for the formation of more complex molecules, including amino
                            acids and nucleotides. [See also 4.A.1]

                       3. The joining of these monomers produced polymers with the ability to replicate, store and transfer information.

                       4. These complex reaction sets could have occurred in solution (organic soup model) or as reactions on solid reactive surfaces. [See
                            also 2.B.1]

                       5. The RNA World hypothesis proposes that RNA could have been the earliest genetic material.

Learning Objectives:
LO 1.27 The student is able to describe a scientific hypothesis about the origin of life on Earth. [See SP 1.2]

LO 1.28 The student is able to evaluate scientific questions based on hypotheses about the origin of life on Earth. [See SP 3.3]

LO 1.29 The student is able to describe the reasons for revisions of scientific hypotheses of the origin of life on Earth. [See SP 6.3]

LO 1.30 The student is able to evaluate scientific hypotheses about the origin of life on Earth. [See SP 6.5]

LO 1.31 The student is able to evaluate the accuracy and legitimacy of data to answer scientific questions about the origin of life on Earth.
 [See SP 4.4]

    Essential knowledge 1.D.2: Scientific evidence from many different disciplines supports models of the origin of life.

         a. Geological evidence provides support for models of the origin of life on Earth.
               Evidence of student learning is a demonstrated understanding of each of the following:
                   1. The Earth formed approximately 4.6 billion years ago (bya), and the environment was too hostile for life until 3.9 bya, while the
                   earliest fossil evidence for life dates to 3.5 bya. Taken together,
this evidence provides a plausible range of dates when the origin of
                   life could have occurred.

                   2. Chemical experiments have shown that it is possible to form complex organic molecules from inorganic molecules in the absence of
                       life.

         b. Molecular and genetic evidence from extant and extinct organisms indicates that all organisms on Earth share a common ancestral origin of
             life.

                Evidence of student learning is a demonstrated understanding of each of the following:
                    1. Scientific evidence includes molecular building blocks that are
common to all life forms.

                     2. Scientific evidence includes a common genetic code.

 Learning Objective:
LO 1.32 The student is able to justify the selection of geological, physical, and chemical data that reveal early Earth conditions. See SP 4.1]

 

Big Idea 2: Biological systems utilize free energy and molecular building blocks to grow, to reproduce and to maintain dynamic homeostasis.

     Essential knowledge 2.D.2: Homeostatic mechanisms reflect both common ancestry and divergence due to adaptation in different environments.

          a. Continuity of homeostatic mechanisms reflects common ancestry, while changes may occur in response to different environmental
              conditions. [See also 1.B.1]

          b. Organisms have various mechanisms for obtaining nutrients and eliminating wastes.

            To foster student understanding of this concept, instructors can choose an illustrative example such as:

                •  Gas exchange in aquatic and terrestrial plants

                •  Digestive mechanisms in animals such as food vacuoles, gastrovascular cavities, one-way digestive systems

                •  Respiratory systems of aquatic and terrestrial animals

                •  Nitrogenous waste production and elimination in aquatic and terrestrial animals

        c. Homeostatic control systems in species of microbes, plants and animals support common ancestry. [See also 1.B.1]

          To foster student understanding of this concept, instructors can choose an illustrative example such as the comparison of:

               •  Excretory systems in flatworms, earthworms and vertebrates

               •  Osmoregulation in bacteria, fish and protists

               •  Osmoregulation in aquatic and terrestrial plants

               •  Circulatory systems in fish, amphibians and mammals

               •  Thermoregulation in aquatic and terrestrial animals (countercurrent exchange mechanisms)

Learning Objectives:

LO 2.25 The student can construct explanations based on scientific evidence that homeostatic mechanisms reflect continuity due to common ancestry and/or divergence due to adaptation in different environments. [See SP 6.2]

LO 2.26 The student is able to analyze data to identify phylogenetic patterns or relationships, showing that homeostatic mechanisms reflect both continuity due to common ancestry and change due to evolution in different environments. [See SP 5.1]

LO 2.27 The student is able to connect differences in the environment with the evolution of homeostatic mechanisms. [See SP 7.1]

Enduring understanding 2.E: Many biological processes involved in growth, reproduction and dynamic homeostasis include temporal regulation and coordination.

 

Big Idea 4: Biological systems interact, and these systems and their interactions possess complex properties.

Enduring understanding 4.C: Naturally occurring diversity among and between components within biological systems affects interactions with the environment.

Essential knowledge 4.C.3: The level of variation in a population affects population dynamics.

       b. Genetic diversity allows individuals in a population to respond differently to the same changes in environmental conditions.
           To foster student understanding of this concept, instructors can choose an illustrative example such as:
           •  Not all animals in a population stampede.
           •  Not all individuals in a population in a disease outbreak are equally affected; some may not show symptoms, some may have mild
                     symptoms, or some may be naturally immune and resistant to the disease.

         c. Allelic variation within a population can be modeled by the Hardy- Weinberg equation(s). [See also 1.A.1]
