Cell Cycle cancer is the cell cycle going out of control most animal species are diploid cell division is a part of the cell cycle DNA is just the one molecule when you see chromosomes in a condensed state, DNA replication has already occurred cell division time varies according to cell type, but takes about 24h on average Meiosis ?How does meiosis affect genetic content?? asexual reproduction is quick and efficient transition to haploid occurs at anaphase II chiasma: crossing over 2n: number of possible chromosomal recombinations Genetics Problems note ratio - see if epistasis is occurring outside members of the genetic line can bring mutated alleles for carrier questions, discard affected genotypes from Punnett square (setting a limit)

How Populations Evolve Historical Theories ? Anaximander (~2500 yrs ago) ? Aristotle ? Georges Buffon (1700?s) ? Jean Baptist Lemark (late 1700?s - early1800?s) ? Erasmus Darwin Charles Darwin 18591874 Voyage of the HMS Beagle On the Origin of Species? ? Descent With Modification ? By means of Natural Selection Support for Descent with Modification ? Biogeography ? Fossil Record ? Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Cell Biology ? Comparative Anatomy ?Biogeography ? Biogeography, the geographic distribution of species ? Darwin noted that Gal?pagos animals resembled species of the South American mainland more than animals on similar but distant islands The study of fossils provides strong evidence for evolution

Chapter 23: The Evolution of Populations This chapter begins with the idea that we focused on as we closed the last chapter: Individuals do not evolve! Populations evolve. The Overview looks at the work of Peter and Rosemary Grant with Gal?pagos finches to illustrate this point, and the rest of the chapter examines the change in populations over time. As in the last chapter, first read each concept to get the big picture and then go back to work on the details presented by our questions. Don?t lose sight of the conceptual understanding by getting lost in the details! Overview The Smallest Unit of Evolution ?One misconception is that organisms evolve, in the Darwinian sense, during their lifetimes

August 2013 Chapter 23 The Evolution of Populations 23.1 Population genetics provides a foundation for studying evolution Darwin and Mendel were contemporaries of the 19th century At the time both were unappreciated for their work Microevolution ? the generation-to-generation change in the population?s frequencies on alleles The Modern Synthesis The turning point for revolutionary theory was the development of population genetics Population Genetics ? Study on how a population changes over time Emphasizes genetic variation and recognizes the importance of quantitative characters Gene Pools and Allele Frequencies A population?s gene pool is defined by it?s allele frequencies (quantity of alleles in a population) Population ? a group of organism that belong to the same species
