Mammals! What next?

51. stop

57. Tooth marks on a fossil

73. Modern coyote Extinct whales

75. Whale ear bones-found in no other living animals

79. Remember, Lamarck had the right idea but the wrong way about it! You can’t pass on a trait that you have acquired through life!

88. Each island has a different variation that is adapted to that island only and found no where else. Each tortoise is genetically related to each other.

89. Darwin’s Observations More on Darwin. Movie clip chapter 2

92. stop Wait a minute….Isn’t Darwin’s Theory …just a theory? What is a theory anyway?

102. Wings in flightless and non aquatic birds

103. The human tailbone Blind fish with remnants of eyes that are not used

104. Human wisdom teeth Sexual parts in dandelions They do not use them; they clone themselves.

105. Virgin whiptail lizards clone themselves and no males are present in the species. The lizards still have sex even though it serves no purpose. Males have nipples and breast tissue although they serve no purpose. The human appendix is used in herbivores to digest plant matter but since humans are not herbivores, the appendix is not used.

111. If you take the gene for making an eye in a fruit fly and put that gene into a developing embryo for a mouse eye, it still produces a regular mouse eye. These are called homeobox genes and they control placement of appendages in all bodies of animals.

113. stop

116. Guppies in high predator environments lessen their bright colors for defense. Over time the population becomes lighter and more drab in color. Why does this occur? Brighter colored fish are eaten more often and do not pass their genes to the next generation leaving only the drab colored fish to reproduce. Over time the population changes or evolves.

118. Coevolution The Yucca plant and Yucca moth, the plant is only pollinated by that moth. Lichens are a mixture of a fungus and an algae working together. They cannot live without each other.

119. Coevolution Many flowers like this snapdragon are designed specifically for a certain insect. Darwin actually predicted the existence of a certain moth by measuring the size of a flower opening. 40 years later, the moth was discovered!

120. Bees see in UV light and flowers evolved to maximize the bees visits by showing where the nectar is located. The flower’s colors glow and the landing strips show the bee where to go. Butterflies have a weak sense of smell. Flowers pollinated by butterflies are usually very fragrant and have bright colors like red or orange. Moths are nocturnal and do not need bright colors to feed. They need a long tube like flower.

121. This flower, the Rafflesia smells like rotten meat and poo. Who would pollinate this plant?

123. Flowers pollinated by bats.

138. Many animals have variable genitalia so proper fit it necessary. This keeps species separated.
