1. Evolutionary biology studies the history of life forms on Earth and how they have changed over time through processes like evolution and natural selection.
2. The origin of life is thought to have begun around 4 billion years ago on the early Earth through chemical evolution. Early Earth conditions allowed simple organic molecules like amino acids and RNA to form.
3. Over millions of years, through gradual processes like mutation, genetic drift, and natural selection, early life forms evolved into diverse organisms, including the first humans which emerged in Africa around 200,000 years ago.

In line with generally accepted theories of evolution, Dinosaur extinction is currently believed to be due to climate change due to various causes. However this is not correct, being inconsistent with known facts. There are only two possibilities. Either Dinosaurs evolved to their extinction or evolved to some other phyletic lines or species with which ancestor â descendent relationship canât be presently demonstrated.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

CHAPTER- 07
EVOLUTION
Evolutionary biology is the study of history of life forms on earth. The evolution of life on earth,
different changes in flora and fauna around earth that co-exist along with human beings also
forms parts of evolution.
Origin of Life
⢠The origin of life is considered unique events in the history of universe. Huge cluster of
galaxies comprises the universe. Galaxies contain stars and clouds of dust and smoke.
⢠Big Bang Theory attempts to explain the origin of universe. According to this theory, a huge
explosion occurs that forms the different galaxies.
⢠In solar system of Milky Way galaxies, earth has been supposed to be formed about 4.5 billion
years ago. There was no atmosphere in early earth. Water vapour, methane, carbon dioxide
and ammonia released from molten covered the earth surface.
⢠UV rays from sun splits the water into hydrogen and oxygen. Life appeared 500 million years
after the formation of earth.
⢠There are different theories regarding the origin of life on earth-
o Some scientist believes that life comes from other planets. Early Greek thinker thoughts
that unit of life is called spores transferred from other planets.
o According to other theory, life comes out of dead and decaying matters like straw and
mud. This theory is called theory of spontaneous origin.
o Louis Pasture experimentally proved that life arises only from pre-existing life.
Spontaneous theory of origin of life is dismissed after that.
o Oparin and Haldane proposed that the first form of life could have come from pre-existing
non-living organic molecules like RNA and protein etc. The formation of life preceded by
chemical evolution. At that time condition on earth were- high temperature, volcanic
eruption, reducing atmosphere containing CH4 and NH3.
Miller experiment of Origin of Life- S.L.Miller in 1953, conducted an experiment to show the
origin of life on earth in the physical environment similar to condition prevails at that time.
Miller created similar condition of temperature
and pressure in laboratory scale. He created
electric discharge in a flask containing CH4, H2
and NH3 and water vapour at 8000C.
He observed formation of amino acids in flask
after 15 days of electric discharge. Similar
experiment by other scientist found formation
of sugars, nitrogen bases, pigments and fats.
Analysis of meteorite content also reveals
similar compounds that reveal that similar
process are occurring elsewhere in the space.
This experimental evidence about the origin of
life is called chemical evolution of life.

Experimental representation of Millerâs experiment
The first non-cellular forms of life could have originated 3 billion years back. They could have
been giant molecules like RNA, Protein, and Polysaccharide etc.
The cellular form of life was probably single cell and originates in water medium. The theory
that first form of life arose slowly through evolutionary forces from non-living molecules is
called biogenesis.
Evolution of Life forms
Many theory were proposed by different thinkers, scientist and religious literatures about the
origin of different forms of life on earth. The main theories include-
Religious literatures tell us about special creation theories. This theory was based on
three facts-
a. All living organism that we see today were created as such.
b. The diversity was always same since creation will be same in future also.
c. The earth is about 4000 years old.
Charles Darwin concluded that existing living forms share similarities to varying degree
not only among only among themselves but also with life forms that existed millions of
years ago. There has been gradual evolution of life forms. The geological history of earth
closely correlates with the biological history of earth. So, the life forms originated from pre-
existing life forms.
Evidence of Evolution
Evidence that evolution of life forms has taken place on earth have many proofs as
mentioned below-
1. Paleontological evidence- different aged rock
sediments contain fossils of different life forms
that probably died during the formation of
particular sediment. The study showed that
different form varied over time and certain life
forms are restricted geological time span. Hence,
new forms of life have arisen at different times
in history of earth.
2. Homologous organs- those organs that perform
different function but have similar origin and
structure are called homologous organs. For
example human, cheetah, bat and whales share similarities in pattern of bones of
forelimbs although these forelimbs perform different functions in these animals. In
these animal similar structure developed along different directions due to adaptation
of different needs. This is called divergent evolution.
3. Analogous structures- they are not anatomically similar organs but perform similar
function. For example eyes of mammals and octopus or flippers of penguin and

dolphins. This is due to similar habitat that resulted in similar adaptive features in
different groups of organisms. This that of evolution is called convergent evolution.
4. Evolution by natural selection- in England, before industrialization, there were more
white winged moth on trees than dark winged but after industrialization, there were
more dark winged moths than white winged in same area. This condition arise due to
smoke and dust that makes tree trunks dark and white winged moths are easily
attacked by predators.
Adaptive Radiation- the process of evolution of different species in given geographical area
starting from a point and radiating to other areas of geography (habitat) is called adaptive
radiation. Darwinâs finches represent one of the best examples of adaptive radiation. Australian
marsupials, each with different from other evolved from one ancestral stock, but all within
Australian island continents.
Biological Evolution â the nature select for fittest and fitness is based on characteristics which
are inherited. Some organisms are better adopted to survive in otherwise hostile environment.
Fitness is the end result of the ability to adopt and get selected by nature.
⢠Lamarck had said that evolution of life form had occurred but driven by use and disuse of
organs. He gave the example of giraffe to evolve their neck.
⢠Darwin theory of natural selection was based on certain observations like-
o Limited natural resources.
o Over population
o Struggle for existence
o Survival of the fittest.
Mechanism of Evolution
Hugo deVries based on his work on evening primrose brought forth the idea of mutation.
Mutation is the large difference arising suddenly in a population.
Mutations are random and directionless while Darwin variations are small and directional.
Hugo deVries believed that mutation causes speciation and hence called saltation.
Hardy-Weinberg Principle- in a given population, frequency of occurrence of alleles or genes can
be finding out. These frequencies remains fixed and even remain the same through generation.
This fact was represented by Hardy-Weinberg principles using algebraic equation.
This principle states that allele frequencies in a population are stable and is constant from
generation to generation. The gene pool remains constant. This is called genetic equilibrium
and sum total of all the allelic frequencies is 1.
Binomial expansion of (p+q)2 = p2+2pq+q2=1. Where p and q are the frequency of different
alleles.
When frequency is measured, the actual value varies that indicates the extent of evolutionary
changes. Change of frequency in a alleles (Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium) in a population
resulted due to evolution.
The factors that affect Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium are-
Gene migration or gene flow.
Genetic drift

Mutation
Genetic recombination
Natural selection.
Sometimes change in alleles frequency is so different in a sample of population that they become a
different species. The original drifted population becomes founder and that effect is called
founder effect.
Brief Account of evolution
About 2000 million ago first cellular form of life appeared on earth. Slowly single cellular form
changed into multicellular forms.
Origin and Evolution of Man
⢠About 15 maya, primates called Dryopithecus and Ramapithcus, exists. They are hairy and
walked like gorilla and chimpanzees. Ramapithcus are more man like and Dryopithecus are
more like apes.
⢠The first creatures that was human like being the hominid and was called Homo habilis having
brain capacities 650-800 cc.
⢠The fossils discovered in java in 1891 revealed the Home eractus having brain about 900cc.
Homo sapiens arose is Africa and moved across the continents and developed into distinct
races.
⢠During ice age between 75,000 to 10000 years ago modern Homo sapiens arose. Pre-historic
cave art developed about 18,000 years ago and agriculture comes around 10,000 years back
to start human settlement.
