Drosphilia (fruit fly) eye color: Red eyes (R) and white eyes (r)
1. Set up a Punnett square using a pure bred red eyed fruit fly and a white eye-colored fruit fly.
2. Describe the possible phenotypes and genotypes of the offspring.
3. What would the parent genotypes need to be in order for only 50% of the offspring to inherit heterzygous genotypes?
• The definition of theory as used by scientists: an explanation that has been confirmed though observations, experimentation, and other supporting evidence.
Evolution is small changes over time in the frequency a gene in a population, which may gradually result in the formation of a new species.
– What is actually changing?
– What would be the primary 3 factors that determines if a gene or genes becomes more abundant?

there is about one base pair out of every 1,000 that will be different
• 700 regions of the human genome where genes have been altered within the last 5,000 to 15,000 years. (Wade 2006)
• "from archaeological data …everywhere we can measure — Europe, China, South Africa, Australia —brains have shrunk about 150 cubic centimeters. That's roughly a 10 percent decrease" (Choi 2009).
• Discuss with your group to determine the 4 main component of Natural Selection.

Types of SelectionArtificial Selection
• Cows that produce the most milk are chosen for breeding.
• Between 1957 and 2007 the average milk production per cow in the U.S. increased by 5,997 kg (Oltenacu, 2010).
Sexual Selection
• A study of Long-Tailed widowbirds demonstrated that female widowbirds chose males with longer tails more often than males with shorter tails (Ehrlich 1988).
