MT 3: Evolution of a Species
Evolution is the study of how populations of organisms change over time. Keep in mind that we will be studying how one or more species can change over time (thousands or even millions of years!).
**Key terms and ideas to Google to understand this MT: natural selection, fitness, Charles Darwin, Darwinism, genetic drift, random event, reproductive isolation, geographic isolation, temporal isolation, reproductive isolation, decrease in diversity, speciation, significant evolutionary event
