Learning Competency: At the end of the video, you will be able to explain how populations of organisms have changed and continue to change over time showing patterns of descent with modification from common ancestors to produce the organismal diversity observed today.
Specific Learning Outcomes:
1. Differentiate Lamarckian Evolution and Darwinian Evolution through illustrations or models
2. Understand Darwin’s Theory of Evolution
In this video, we explore the key differences between Lamarckian Evolution and Darwinian Evolution. Lamarckian Evolution was a theory proposed by Jean-Baptiste Lamarck in the early 19th century, which suggested that organisms could pass on acquired traits to their offspring. Darwinian Evolution, on the other hand, is based on the theory of natural selection proposed by Charles Darwin in the mid-19th century, which suggests that traits that confer an advantage in a particular environment are more likely to be passed on to future generations.
We'll delve into the history of these two theories and the scientific evidence that has emerged over the years to support or refute them. We'll also explore the implications of these theories for our understanding of the natural world and the evolution of life on Earth.
