EVOLUTION

 

Intro - How agriculture changed plants to what we eat today; (selective breeding). This video shows how "selective breeding" can produce obvious changes in organisms over several generations.

 

Natural Selection (explained here on YouTube) is taught (by me) as:

  1. A population has genetic variation
  2. Genetic variation produces physical variation
  3. Some traits (phenotypes / physical variation) help owners survive; some phenotypes cause owners to die early.
  4. Organisms that survive can breed and pass on their genes.
  5. Over time, populations - not individuals - change to include more of the advantaged individuals (adaptation)

 

See HHMI video (1 of 3): The Making of a Theory

or NOVA's "What Darwin Never Knew" (First half is about general evolution; second half relates DNA to evolution.)
