Results in adaptation – a population becomes better suited to its environment
Adaptation can also refer to a derived trait, one that has come about by natural selection.

Camouflage-the ability to belnd in with your environment
Allows organisms to become almost invisible to predators

Mimicry-one species evolves to resemble another species

Plant adaptations• Tropisms- a plants growth response
to an external factor.• 3 types
– Phototropism– Gravitropism– Thigmotropsim

Phototropism
• Plant growth in response to light

GravitropismPlant Growth in response to gravity

Thigmotropsim
• Growth/movement in response to touch
• Ex:vines

Sources of Variation • Mutations or genetic changes
occur infrequently in a cell but frequently in a population, particularly a large one.
• Genetic recombination through sexual reproduction, including crossing-over during meiosis.

Speciation: The Formation of a new species
![Page 14: Adaptation](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163a9550346895dd4bba4/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Speciation• When some members of a
population become separated from the group and change so much that they can no longer mate with members of the original population.
• 2 Types:1. Allopatric Speciation2. Sympatric Speciation
![Page 15: Adaptation](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163a9550346895dd4bba4/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Allopatric Speciation
• A physical Barrier divides a population which gives rise to a new species.– Takes a LONG time– Most common

Sympatric speciation• A new species forms without a
physical barrier.– Usually occurs in plants
