state that there is usually extensive genetic variation within a population of a species
state that there is usually extensive genetic variation within a population of a species
recall that genetic variants arise from mutations, and that most have no effect on the phenotype, some influence phenotype and a very few determine phenotype
explain how evolution occurs through natural selection of variants that give rise to phenotypes better suited to their environment
explain the importance of competition in a community, with regard to natural selection
describe evolution as a change in the inherited characteristics of a population over a number of generations through a process of natural selection which may result in the formation of new species
explain the impact of the selective breeding of food plants and domesticated animals
describe how fossils provide evidence for evolution
describe the work of Darwin and Wallace in the development of the theory of evolution by natural selection
describe modern examples of evidence for evolution including antibiotic resistance in bacteria
explain the impact of these ideas on modern biology and society
