HE.6.B.1Compare and

explanation of evolution with
Darwins theory of evolution

Inheritance of
Acquired
Characteristics
Organisms acquire
or lose traits
during Lifetime
These traits
passed to
Offspring
Charles Darwin
Individual Variation
Organisms in a
population vary
Everyone is different
Charles Darwin
Overproduction
Organisms in a
population have more
offspring than will
survive.
Not everyone lives
Charles Darwin
Organisms struggle to
survive.
Compete with each other
and other organisms
Depend on non-living
factors
Charles Darwin
Natural Selection:
HE.6.B.2Recognize that
evolution involves a change
in allele frequencies in a
population across successive
generations
Natural Selection:
Initial population:
Even amount of gray and
white mice.
Allele frequency
A=gray
(8 alleles/50%)
a=white (8 alleles/50%)
Natural Selection:
A=10
(56%)
a=8 (44%)
Natural Selection:
A=12
(75%)
a=4 (25%)
Natural Selection:
Directional Selection:

Relative Dating:
Relative Dating:
Pros:
No equipment/
technology
needed
easy to do in
the field
Cons:
Does not
get exact
age
Radioactive Dating:
Use of half-lives to
determine age of sample.
Calculates age by
measuring amount of
radioactive isotope
remaining.
Radioactive Dating:
Pros:
Can
determine
exact age
More
precise
Cons:
Expensive
equipment
needed
Must be
done in a lab
Radioactive isotope:
unstable; wants to become
stable.
