Biology

Illusion [34]3 years ago
6 0

When you hear talk of evidence for evolution, the first thing that frequently comes to mind for most people is fossils. The fossil record has one important, unique characteristic: it is our only actual glimpse into the past where common descent is proposed to have taken place. As such it provides invaluable evidence for common descent. The fossil record is not "complete" ( fossilization is a rare event, so this is to be expected), but there is still a wealth of fossil information.

What is the difference between directional selection and disruptive selection
morpeh [17]
Directional selection is where one phenotype is favored, so an example would be "a population of madagascar hissing cockroaches suffers heavy predation from lizards. Because their heads are small, the lizards are unable to eat the very largest adult cockroaches, and instead prey upon small and medium sized adults, so as a result the large cockroaches are favored and live". 
Meanwhile, disruptive selection is where both extreme phenotypes are favored, an example would be "a population of rabbits can have black fur, white fur or grey fur. This population of rabbits lives in an area of white rocks. When a local volcano erupts, black volcanic rock now dots the landscape amongst the white rocks. Now the black and white rabbits live longer because the black and white spots on the landscape camoflauge them. The two extreme phenotypes are being favored."
