Darwin was at a disadvantage when developing theory of evolution due to his lack of understanding of how genes worked. He could not explain • The source of variation • How inheritable traits were passed from one generation to the next Ch. 16 Evolution of Populations Slide 2 of 24 End Show

16 -1 Genes and Variation How Common Is Genetic Variation? Many genes have at least two forms, or alleles. All organisms have genetic variation that is “invisible” because it involves small differences in biochemical processes. An individual organism is heterozygous for many genes.

16 -1 Genes and Variation Sources of Genetic Variation II. Sources of Genetic Variation

16 -1 Genes and Variation Sources of Genetic Variation II. Sources of Genetic Variation The two main sources of genetic variation are 1. Mutations 2. genetic shuffling that results from sexual reproduction. Slide 12 of 24 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show

16 -1 Genes and Variation Sources of Genetic Variation A. Mutations A mutation is any change in a sequence of DNA. Mutations occur because of mistakes in DNA replication or as a result of radiation or chemicals in the environment. Mutations do not always affect an organism’s phenotype.
