LEARNING TARGETS Intro

• Explain the concept of evolution;

• summarize the major events of the
geologic time scale;
• Analyze modern theories on the origin of
life; and
• Trace the development of evolutionary
thought.

• What are the eras included 2. What are the different 3. How did Charles 4. What are the mechanisms
in the geologic time scale? species that emerged during Darwin revolutionize that cause changes in
each period of the geologic evolutionary thought? generations of species`

PALEOZOIC ERA
Chapter 1
• terrestrial animals did not appear until the paleozoic era
• lasted 542 million years to 250 million years ago, during which the Cambrian
explosion, was an event characterized by the migration of marine animals onto
land.
• the emergence of vertebrate species, the growth of vascular plants, and the
diversification of fishes and amphibians.

CENOZOIC ERA
ongoing era around 65 million years ago
• was characterized by the height of the Ice Age, which saw the Chapter 2
existence of the woolly mammoth and the saber-tooth tiger
• more smaller animals were able to develop
• earliest ancestors of humans emerged and eventually evolved

He observed fossils and came up He developed a system of
with various theories about the classification for all identified
evolution of ife on Earth organisms during his time, and was
able to show an evolutionary pattern
among species through this system.

CHARLES DARWIN AND THE

EVOLUTIONARY THOUGHT
English naturalist is known for developing the theory of natural selection, which
revolutionized the way that the evolution of species is studied in the modern era.

DARWIN`S VOYAGE
• Darwin embarked on a voyage to countries in South America abroad the HMS
Beagle
• Galapagos Islands, he observed that the species suited their habitats, which
proved they evolved
