  8. Proteinoid Microspheres • Similar to protocells • Protocells • Reproduce • Natural selection favored those with the most efficient replicating systems • RNA • DNA

  9. Cyanobacteria • Photosynthesis • Produce oxygen • Produce carbohydrates CarbonDioxide + Water = Glucose + Oxygen

  10. Microevolution • Change in allele frequency of a population • Populations evolve, individuals do not

  11. Terms • Allele • Member of a paired gene • Dominant allele • Allele that is expressed when combined with a recessive allele • Recessive allele • Allele that is NOT expressed when combined with a dominant allele • Homozygous • Both alleles the same, AA or aa • Heterozygous • Alleles are different, Aa

  12. Terms • Codominance • Both alleles are dominant, AB blood type • Gene Pool • All the alleles in a population

  13. Math Explains Allele Frequencies • p + q = 1 • p = percent of dominant alleles in a population • q = percent of recessive alleles in a population • If 70% of alleles in a population are dominant then 30% must be recessive

  14. Genotype Frequencies • Square the equation p + q = 1 • p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1 • Correlation between genotypes and variables in the equation are: • p2 = AA • 2pq = Aa • q2 = aa

  15. Hardy-Weinberg Equations • p + q = 1 • Frequency of dominant alleles plus frequency of recessive alleles is 100% ( or 1) • p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1 • AA plus 2Aa plus aa add up to 100% (or 1) • Applies to populations that are not changing • They are in equilibrium

  16. Hardy-Weinberg Example • Normal pigmentation (not albino) = A • Albinism recessive = a • AA = (p2) = normal • Aa = (2pq) = normal • aa = (q2) = Albinism • 1 in 20,000 people have albinism • aa = 1/20,000 = 0.00005 • a = 1/141 = 0.00707

  17. First Equation • p + q = 1 • p is the frequency of the dominant allele, A • q is the frequency of the recessive allele a • p + 0.00707 = 1 • p = 1- q = .9929

  18. Second Equation • p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1 • p2 = AA • .9929 x .9929 = .9858 • 2pq = Aa • 2 x.9929 x 0.00707 = .0140 • q2 = aa • .00005 • .9858 + .0140 + .00005 =0.99985 or 1

  19. Cystic Fibrosis • Cystic fibrosis affects 1 in 2000 white Americans • Cystic fibrosis is recessive = cc • 1 in 2000 = 1/2000 = .0005 • q2 = .0005 • What is q?

  20. Value of q • q is the square root of q2 • q2 = .0005 • Square root of .0005 = .022 • What is p?

  21. Value of p • p + q = 1 • Since q = .022 • Then p = .978 (1-.022) • What are the values for p2 and 2pq?

  22. Values for p2 and 2pq • P2 = pxp =.978 x .978 = .956 • 2pq = 2 x .978 x . 22 = .043 • 4.3% of population are carriers for cystic fibrosis

  23. Problem • Jack and Jill are expecting a baby. What is the chance the baby will have cystic fibrosis?

  24. Solution • The chance of Jack being a carrier is .043 • The chance of Jill being a carrier is .043 • The chance of two carriers producing a child with a recessive trait is .25 • .043 x .043 x .25 = .0046 @ 1/2000

  25. Practical Application of Hardy-Weinberg Equations • If you know the frequency of the recessive phenotype (aa) you can calculate the percent of the population that are carriers (Aa) and that are AA.

  26. Populations are rarely in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium • Most populations are evolving • Factors that cause allele frequencies to change • Nonrandom mating • Genetic drift • Gene flow • Mutation • Natural selection

  27. Nonrandom Mating • Most people choose their mates based on • Physical appearance • Ethnic background • Intelligence • Shared interests • One-third of marriages are between people born less than 10 miles apart

  28. Religious & Cultural Influences • Many people will only marry within their own religion or culture • Consanguineous marriages increase risk of birth defects by 2.5 times

  29. Hopi Indians • Albinos stay in village with woman • Cannot tolerate the sun • Albinos have more opportunity to mate with females • 1/200 Hopi Indians are albino • 1/8 are carriers

  30. Genetic Drift • Change in gene frequency when small a group of individuals leave or are separated from a larger population • Founder Effect • Bottleneck

  31. New Population 10% with A allele Founder Effect Original Population 1% has allele A 10 Founders • 10 people leave to found a new population • 1 of the founders has allele A • 10% of new population will have allele A

  32. Ellis-van Creveld Syndrome • Dwarfism • Extra fingers • Heart defects • High frequency in Amish population of Pennsylvania • A founder of the population had allele for the syndrome

  33. Bottleneck • Population almost dies out • Survivors genes are at a higher frequency in the descendants than the original population

  34. Cheetah Bottleneck • 2 major bottlenecks • 10,000 years ago • 1800’s • Present cheetah are more alike genetically than inbred lab mice

  35. Gene Flow • When genes move from one population to another • Genes flow between the two populations below OKC Dallas

  36. Gene Flow • Can change the frequency of genes in a population • If gene flow stops for a long period of time the two populations may change enough from each other to become new species.

  37. No Gene Flow

  38. Mutations • Introduces new alleles into a population • Most mutations are lethal • Mutation for no heart would be lethal • Some mutations are beneficial • Block infection of HIV

  39. Beneficial Mutation • Mutation for albinism beneficial for bears who live on the ice and snow • Polar bears were once part of a population of brown & black bears • Now polar bears are a separate species

  40. Natural Selection • Some individuals are more likely to survive and pass on their genes than others • Nature selects against gene for black fur in the arctic • Black fur does not enable bears in that environment to survive as well • Nature selects against gene for white fur in Oklahoma • White fur is not as advantageous in Oklahoma

  41. Tuberculosis • Number 1 killer in 1900 • Antibiotics decreased cases dramatically • 1980 very few cases • Bacterium that causes TB is constantly mutating • Mutant strains resistant to antibiotics are naturallyselected to survive

  42. Evolution of Tuberculosis Cases of TB 1900 1980 2000

  43. Sickle Cell Anemia Frequency • Sickle cell anemia is most common in parts of Africa with malaria • Carriers who live in an environment with malaria have an advantage • Immune to malaria

  44. Why is the frequency of sickle cell anemia lower in the USA population of Blacks than African populations from which they originated? • There is no selective advantage for the s allele in an environment with no malaria • The frequency of the s allele in the USA Black population has dropped significantly in the last 300 years.

  45. Stabilizing Selection • Average value selected for • Extreme values selected against

  46. Directional Selection • Favors values above or below average • Population will shift to the favored value

  47. Disruptive Selection • Extreme traits are both favored • Birds with small bills and large bills are better feeders • In a specific enrironment

  48. Macroevolution • Evolution that results in new species

  49. Allopatric Speciation • A barrier separates a population into two subpopulations • There is no gene flow between the two populations • Each population changes with time • Changes result in new species.
