Evidence of evolution

                cross breading plants is when farmers breaded to plants to get a better one.     










 
some evidence is like the animals in the desert that changed to live there
                   plant fosles 

Evidence of Evolution

List and explain 3 examples of evidence of evolution. Support your answers with at least one picture


1. Fossils, scientist study fossils and compare them with other animals. Some animals do not become a fossil so the fossil record is not complete.
  

2. (Homologous structures) Between billions to millions to thousands of years animals change a lot in that period of time. Scientist study and compare them so can see what they were like.


3. DNA- It is cool to find a DNA sample of your own kind. An example is like when you give blood it has parts of your DNA in it.

Evidence of Evolution By: Dawson J

     There are multiple examples of evidence of evolution but there are only a three that really stick out. One example is fossils. Fossils can provide evidence of evolution because they show the different stages of evolution something went through. Homologous structures is another example of evolution because it shows the similarities between the arms of multiple species. Another is vestigial structures such as the appendix, and the pelvis in a whale. 

Evidence and Evolution By: Haylee

1st example of evolution: Fossils, The fossil record shows that the simplest fossils will be found in the oldest rocks. Fossils can also show a smooth and gradual transition.



2nd example of evolution: The universal genetic code:  All cells on Earth, from our white blood cells, to simple bacteria, to cells in the leaves of trees.

3rd example of evolution: Embryology is the science of the development of an embryo from the fertilization of the ovum to the fetus stage

Evidence of Evolution

List and explain 3 examples of evidence of evolution. Support your answers with at least one picture. 
1. One evidence of evolution would be DNA. DNA proves that it is an evidence about evolution because it can provide information about what other fossils or animal it is related to.
2. Fossils is an evidence of evolution because through fossils scientist can see what animal that fossil was, the era that animal was from, and also how long ago it decomposed.



3. Embryology can also be used as evidence of evolution because it compares embryology in the early stages of development .

Evidence of Evolution

  • Homologous Structure
    • Homologous Structure is an example of evolution because the bones could change.
    • Embryology 
      • Embryology is an example of evolution because when the baby grows up it could change shape and size.
  • Vestigial Structures: Vestigial Structures is an example of evolution because the muscle that is not used could change over time.  

Evidence of Evolution

List and explain 3 examples of evidence of evolution. Support your answers with at least one picture. 
This assignment is worth 10 points. 
1.some evidence of evolution or fossils when we find fossils we find when it was living and we compare it to now a day animals. like in the book when they found the fossils of the camels and compared it to now a day camels


2. other evidence is homologous structures cause when you compare the wale, cat the frog the lizard the bird and the bat limbs all or similar to the human arm 
3. cross reeding plants is another example of evolution like the farmers did to make broccoli and cauliflower and other plant foods 



Evidence of Evolution

1. Fossils: There are bones of Dinosaurs in the dirt.
2. DNA: DNA has changed over time with immunities.
3. Pesticide: Not a lot of pests.

Evidences of Evolution

What is Evolution. Evolution is the process by which different kinds of living organisms are thought to have developed and diversified from earlier forms during the history of the earth. Which is like alot of different kinds of living organisms to have develped. Evolution is pretty much different kinds of living organisms. Their are different kinds and even breeding. DNA will mach that same animal or other animals that are close to others. Most of the time all the animals that look that same will almost have the same DNA as a different animal that looks similar. If a differnt animal dies and they take that DNA from that animal and put it with a differnt animal that don't look like it. Then your won't be able to find an animal similar to that animal your trying to find out. Thanks.

Evidence of Evolution By Jace

An example of evolution would be when pesticide is over used by a farmer. Sooner or later the pesticide will not affect the insect, because the insect will become so use to the the pesticide that the next time the farmer sprays the pesticide the insect will go on like nothing happened. 

In embryology evolution has happened various times because like a monkey is born with a genetic mutation. That mutation is that the monkey does not have a tail. Later on that monkey will have others monkeys and pass on the trait and sometime over evolution that species might start a new species.
In Herbicides a person will start spraying the herbicide killer Round-Up. That person uses Round-Up to clean the weeds out of his driveway and soon some of those weeds will not be affected by the weeds so the person will eventually have to find a new type of spray like Grazeon. 
 

"Evidence" of Evolution

One example of microevolution would be different breeds of organisms, also known as selective breeding.
Another example of microevolution would be a bacteria growing an immunity to antibiotics.
My final example of microevolution would be any adaptation.

Evidence of Evolution

1st example of evolution: fossils, The fossil record shows that the simplest fossils will be found in the oldest rocks, and it can also show a smooth and gradual transition from one form of life to another. 


2nd example of evolution: the universal genetic code, All cells on Earth, from our white blood cells, to simple bacteria, to cells in the leaves of trees, are capable of reading any piece of DNA from any life form on Earth.  This is very strong evidence for a common ancestor from which all life descended.


3rd example: Embryology is the science of the development of an embryo from the fertilization of the ovum to the fetus stage.; they study the embryos. 


Evidence of Evolution

List and explain 3 examples of evidence of evolution. Support your answers with at least one picture. 

1. DNA- It is made of  deoxyribonucleic acid, a self-replicating material present in nearly all living organisms as the main constituent of chromosomes.


2. Fossils- They are the bones or stone of the dead animals and plants.


3. Resistance to Antibiotic- The ability of bacteria and other microorganisms to resist the effects of an antibiotic.


Evidence of Evolution

                                                          Evidence of Evolution.
                                   
Study fossils – studding fossils to determine the age or other important facts from the organism.

Cross breading plants – to make hybrids, making a new bread showing how new plants were created over time.


Studding DNA – the study of Deoxyribonucleic acid showing how organisms were created.

the effects of the environment



1. Riding ATV's Over kill one kind of type of bug or grass
2. Wind Turbines from wind farms. help us us the envermt so we dont us factory to palut the air

3.Flooding kill grass and weeds and trees 

Bozeman Science Video

        Something that I thought was interesting in the video was the symbiotic relationship between the aunts and the fungus. The aunts feed the fungus leafs, and in turn the fungus breaks down the cellulose in the leaf for food for the aunts. The video also said that the aunts that were working close to the fungus had a bacteria on them that worked the same way that our penicillin works.

Positive and Negative on the Environment

                                                Positive and Negative on the Environment

Riding 4 wheelers - both positive and negative. Negative - Say if you used the same route every day in a pasture grass would have a hard to growing there, but if you took different routes or just not as often you are helping spread seed around (positive).

Floods - negative, floods have the ability to take out human and animals habitats.


Wind turbines - negative, takes up space and uses energy to put them up and keep them going, positive they create energy.

Effects on the Environment




Riding four wheelers : Positive : When riding four wheelers, the rider may spread seeds from the plants that are going to seed.
                                     Negative : When riding four wheelers, the rider may run over an animal, or break of a stem to a plant.  If the rider repetitively rides over the same area, it will stomp the plants down and kill them.

Flooding : Positive : Flooding will provide the soil with nutrients.
                 Negative : Flooding may kill fish if it is a river that is flooding.

Wind Turbines : Positive : Wind turbines are an easy way to make energy.
                           Negative : It takes up land space.

Positive and negative effects in the environment

Riding ATV's on land:
Negative: The negative effect of riding ATV's on land is that you can run over tiny animals and destroy their environment and habitats. That is why you should always ride in roads.
Positive: The positive effect of riding ATV's on land is that



Wind Turbines from Wind Farms:
Positive: Wind turbines from wind farms are positive because they make energy








Flooding:
Negative: Flooding can be negative because it can destroy some of the animals habitats

Positive and Negative Effects on the Environment

A positive effect on having wind turbines is that they are a good way of producing green energy. Wind turbines are green and efficient because they use wind to push the big fins and then there are parts that create friction and make electricity. One problem that wind turbines have is that here recently birds have been flying into the turbines and the bird population is decreasing rapidly.


A positive effect on an ATV is that it helps when you go through the pasture it spreads the grass seed and hopefully the seed will grow. A negative effect on an ATV is that they pollute the atmosphere.


A positive effect on a flood is that the flood brings moisture to the ground for the plants to use. 
A negative effect from a flood is that a flood would destroy habitats, land, and all other sort of things that would be in the way of a flood.

Bozeman Video on Communities


One thing I thought that was interesting was that in the video was towards the end he talked about how that India has a larger growth rate than China does. He had a diagram to show that China had a huge growth rate earlier than India at the time, but not as big as a couple generations now. Because of China’s small growth rate India in the later years would become the most populous country worldwide.

Bozeman Video

  In the Bozeman video the topic was about ecology, biotic and abiotic limiting factors, food webs, pyramids, and chains. The fungi produces this kind of sugar that the ant eats. The video also included what BBECPO means.It basically means everything there is in an ecology.  At the end of the video it talks about exponential growth and how exponential growth works and what it does to the living ecology.

Bozeman Video

In the Bozeman video the topic was about ecology, biotic and abiotic limiting factors, food webs, pyramids, and chains. Species diversity means the total amount. The leaf cutter ant chews up the leaf and feeds it to fungi that lives with the ants. Then the fungi produces this kind of sugar that the ant eats. In the end of the video it talked about exponential growth and how it works.

Effects on the Environment

Write and explain the kind of effect (positive or negative) the following have on the environment and why?
1) Riding ATV's over the land: This is a negative effect because it tears up the grass and kills plants and vegetables if you go over it over and over again.


   2) Wind turbines from wind farms: is a negative effect on the environment because you have to cut down trees and dig holes in the grass and it ruins some habits and other things. 

3) Flooding is both negative an a positive effect the negative effect is  the environment because it kills plants and habitats it can also ruin houses.  The positive side it gives nutrients to the land.


Positive/Negative effects on enviconment

Windtubines- We get energy from them. They take up money and space.

Floods- Brings nutrents to the soal and helps grow crops. It brings damage and dangers to us.

ATV's- Puts exast and other chemicals in the air. May help grass grow.

Effects On The Environment

What effect does riding ATV's across the land? It kills the grass and makes dirt show.
What effect does building wind farms have? It has more energy produced.
What effect does flooding have? Less land to grow crops on.

videos thing

I Lerner  about bbecp
Organisms
Population
Community
Ecosystems
Biome
Biosphere
it was ok.

Bozeman Video

The video was mainly about ecology. We talked about food chains and webs. The end of the video it talked about exponential growth.

effects on the Environment

Write and Explain the kind of effect( positive or negative or both) the following have on the environment and why.
This requires research.
1. Riding ATV's Over the Land is good cause it spreads the grass and the negative part is it ruins ant home

2. Wind Turbines from wind farms.
help produce energy
3.Flooding - ruins the land

Effects on the environment

Write and Explain the kind of effect( positive or negative or both) the following have on the environment and why. 
This requires research. 
1. Riding ATV's Over the Land: is a Negative effect on the land because it tares up the land and the vegetation in that area 


2. Wind Turbines from wind farms. is a negative effect on the environment because you have to clear trees to put them in and you also have to dig the ground up and it also messes up birds migration routs
 


3.Flooding is both negative and positive effects on the environment because the flood kill all the crops you planted but the positive effect is that it brings in great nutrients for the land. 




Limiting Factors and Their Effect on Carrying Capacity

Identify and explain a biotic limiting factor. Biotic limiting factor is a a living factor that limits. An abiotic is a dead factor that limits.

Bozeman Video

In the Bozeman video the topic was about ecology, biotic limiting factors, and abiotic limiting factors.Another topic that was talked about in the video was food webs, chains, and pyramids. The video also included what BBECPO means. It basically means everything there is in an ecology. At the end of the video it talks about exponential growth and how exponential growth works and what it does to the living ecology.

Bozeman Science Video

In the Bozeman Science video he talked about the Ecology. BBECPO means Organisms, Population, Community, Ecosystem, Biome, Biosphere. Species Composition means where you go into a group of animals or trees and make a pie chart of all the species or types of organisms living in an area. Species Diversity means not the biggest amount, but the total amount. The leaf cutter ants chew up the leafs and feed it to a fungi that lives with the ants. Then the fungi produces this kind of sugar that the ants eat. That is a symbiotic relationship between the Leaf Cutter Ants and the fungi.
