Evolutionary Misconceptions
1. Survival of the Fittest ≠ Survival of the Strongest
2. Individual species adapt out of want or need.
3. Species become progressively perfect.
4. Opposes tenants of religion
(belief vs. acceptance)

Speciation
• Process where 2 species
arise from 1
• Two ways speciation occurs:
– Geographic Isolation
– Reproductive Isolation

Extinction
• Factors affecting
extinction
– Plate tectonics
• Associated climate
change

4-5 Species Diversity
• Species Richness
• Species Evenness
Sequential Comparison • Run (def)
• SCI = # runs / total population
• SCI and Biodiversity are directly proportional
• Scale: 0.0 (low) 1.0 (high)
• Example: How has diversity of the Chicago Shipping
Canal (connected to Lake Michigan) changed?

Simpson Diversity Index
• Measures dominance of one species
• Simpson and SCI are inversely related
• Scale = 0.0 1.0
Simpson Index = Σ Ni (Ni -1)
