Evolution Site - Teaching About Evolution

Despite the best efforts of biology educators, there are still a lot of misconceptions regarding evolution. Pop science fiction has led a lot of people to think that biologists don't believe in evolution.

This rich Web site, a companion to the PBS program, provides teachers with materials which support evolution education while avoiding the types of misconceptions that undermine it. It's laid out in a nested "bread crumb" format to facilitate navigation and orientation.

Definitions

It's difficult to effectively teach evolution. People who are not scientists often have a difficult time understanding the subject, and some scientists even use a definition which confuses it. This is especially relevant when discussing the nature of the words themselves.

It is crucial to define the terms used in evolutionary biology. Understanding Evolution's website helps you define these terms in a straightforward and useful way. The site is a companion site to the series that first aired in 2001, but can also function as an independent resource. The material is presented in a nested fashion that assists in navigation and orientation.

The site defines terms such as common ancestor (or common ancestor), gradual process, and adaptation. These terms help define the nature and relationship of evolution to other scientific concepts. The site also provides an overview of how the concept of evolution has been vetted and validated. This information can be used to dispel the myths that have been propagated by creationists.

It is also possible to access a glossary of terms that are used in evolutionary biology. These terms include:

Adaptation: The tendency of heritable characteristics to become more suited to a particular environment. This is a result of natural selection. Organisms with more adaptable traits are more likely than those with less adapted traits to survive and reproduce.

Common ancestor 에볼루션 (also called common ancestor) The most recent ancestor that is shared by two or more species. By analyzing the DNA from these species, it is possible to determine the common ancestor.

Deoxyribonucleic Acid: A large biological molecular that holds the information needed for cell replication. The information is contained in a sequence of nucleotides that are strung together into long chains, called chromosomes. Mutations are the basis for new genetic information in cells.

Coevolution is a relation between two species in which the evolutionary changes of one species influence evolutionary changes in the other. Examples of coevolution are the interactions between predator and prey, or the parasite and the host.

Origins

Species (groups of individuals that are able to interbreed) change through an array of natural changes in the characteristics of their offspring. The changes can be caused by a variety of causes such as natural selection, genetic drift and gene pool mixing. The development of new species can take thousands of years. Environmental circumstances, such as changes in the climate or competition for food or habitat can slow or speed up the process.

The Evolution site tracks the evolution of a number of different species of plants and animals over time and focuses on the most significant changes that took place in the history of each group. It also explores the evolutionary origin of humans and humans, a subject that is especially important for students to understand.

Darwin's Origin was written in 1859, when just a few antediluvian fossils of humans were discovered. The most famous among them was the skullcap and 에볼루션사이트 associated bones found in 1856 at the Little Feldhofer Grotto in Germany which is now believed as an early Homo neanderthalensis. It is highly unlikely that Darwin knew about the skullcap, which was first published in 1858, a year following the initial edition of The Origin.

While the site focuses on biology, it also contains a wealth of information about geology as well as paleontology. One of the most appealing features of the website are a set of timelines that illustrate the way in which climatic and geological conditions have changed over time, as well as an interactive map of the geographical distribution of some fossil groups that are featured on the site.

Although the site is a companion piece to the PBS television series, it also stands on its own as a great source for teachers and students. The site is well-organized and offers clear links to the introduction material of Understanding Evolution (developed under the National Science Foundation's support) and the more specific features of the museum's website. These hyperlinks help users move from the enthralling cartoon style of the Understanding Evolution pages to the more sophisticated world of research science. There are links to John Endler's experiments with guppies. They illustrate the importance ecology in evolutionary theory.

Diversity

The evolution of life on Earth has led to a wide variety of animals, plants and insects. Paleobiology is the study of these creatures in their geological context, has many advantages over modern observational or experimental methods for studying evolutionary phenomena. Paleobiology focuses on not just the processes and events that take place frequently or over time, but also the relative abundance and distribution of various animal groups in space over the course of geological time.

The Web site is divided into a variety of ways to learn about evolution which include "Evolution 101," which takes the viewer on a line through the science of nature and the evidence to support the theory of evolution. The path also examines myths regarding evolution, as well as the history of evolutionary thinking.

Each of the other sections of the Evolution site is equally created, with resources that can support a variety of different pedagogical levels and curriculum levels. In addition to the general textual content, the site also has an extensive selection of interactive and multimedia resources including video clips, 에볼루션 슬롯 animations, and virtual labs. The content is presented in a nested bread crumb fashion that aids navigation and orientation on the Web site.

The page "Coral Reef Connections" For instance, the page "Coral Reef Connections" provides a comprehensive overview of the relationships between corals, their interaction with other organisms and then is enlarged to show one clam that can communicate with its neighbours and respond to changes in conditions of the water that occur at the reef level. This page, as well as the other multidisciplinary, 에볼루션 바카라 체험 슬롯 (in the know) multimedia and interactive pages on the site, provide an excellent introduction to the broad range of topics in evolutionary biology. The content includes an overview of the significance of natural selectivity and the concept of phylogenetics analysis, an important method for understanding the evolution of changes.

Evolutionary Theory

For biology students, evolution is a key thread that binds all the branches of the field. A wide range of resources can help teachers teach about evolution across the life sciences.

One resource, which is a companion to the PBS television series Understanding Evolution, is an excellent example of an Web site that provides depth and a variety of educational resources. The site features a wealth of interactive learning modules. It also features an "bread crumb structure" that allows students to move away from the cartoon style of Understanding Evolution and onto elements on this site that are more closely connected to the realms of research science. For instance an animation that introduces the concept of genetic inheritance links to a page highlighting John Endler's artificial selection experiments with guppies in native ponds of Trinidad.

The Evolution Library on this website has a huge multimedia library of assets related with evolution. The content is organized according to the form of curriculum-based pathways that are in line with the learning objectives set out in biology standards. It includes seven short videos specifically designed for use in classrooms, and can be streamed at no cost or purchased on DVD.

Evolutionary biology remains an area of study that poses many important questions, such as what triggers evolution and the speed at which it happens. This is particularly true for the evolution of humans, where it was difficult to reconcile religious beliefs that held that humanity has a special position in the universe and a soul, with the idea that innate physical traits originated from the apes.

Additionally, there are a number of ways that evolution can be triggered with natural selection being the most widely accepted theory. However scientists also study different types of evolution such as mutation, genetic drift, and sexual selection, among others.

While many fields of scientific study are in conflict with literal interpretations found in religious texts, the concept of evolution biology has been a source of intense debate and opposition from religious fundamentalists. Some religions have reconciled their beliefs with evolutionary biology, while others haven't.
