Evolutionary Biology

Group: 4 #group-4

Relations

  • Evolutionary Ecology: Evolutionary ecology studies how ecological factors influence evolutionary processes and vice versa.
  • Admixture: Admixture plays a role in evolutionary processes, such as adaptation and speciation.
  • Evolutionary Genetics: Evolutionary genetics examines how genetic processes, such as mutation and recombination, contribute to evolutionary change.
  • Speciation: Speciation is the process by which new species arise from existing ones, driven by evolutionary mechanisms.
  • Heredity: Heredity plays a crucial role in the process of evolution, as it determines how traits are passed on to future generations.
  • Molecular Evolution: Molecular evolution studies the processes that drive changes in DNA and protein sequences over time.
  • Genetic Variation: Genetic variation provides the raw material for natural selection to act upon, leading to evolutionary change.
  • Phylogenetics: Phylogenetics is the study of evolutionary relationships among organisms, reconstructing their evolutionary history.
  • Evolutionary Developmental Biology: Evolutionary developmental biology examines how changes in developmental processes contribute to evolutionary change.
  • Evolution: Evolutionary biology is the study of the processes and patterns of evolution, encompassing fields such as genetics, paleontology, and ecology.
  • Adaptation: Adaptation is the process by which organisms become better suited to their environment through natural selection.
  • Genetic Factors: Evolutionary biology studies how genetic factors change over time and contribute to the evolution of species.
  • Evolutionary Psychology: Evolutionary psychology applies evolutionary principles to understand human behavior and cognitive processes.
  • Natural Selection: Natural selection is a central mechanism driving evolution, explaining how organisms adapt to their environment.
