The history of life
„ The Big Bang occurred 15 billion years ago
† It was so hot that all the matter would have been in the form of
protons and neutrons
† Neutrons decay into more protons; hydrogen and helium created
† The universe expanded to form the heavier elements „ Then supernovas, galaxies, stars and solar systems
„ Our solar system was formed 4.5 billion years ago
„ The Earth was formed largely out of the heavier elements, including carbon and oxygen
† Somehow some of these atoms came to be arranged in the form of molecules of DNA about 3 – 3.5 billion years ago
„ It took 2.5 billion years for life to evolve from the earliest cells to multi cell animals
† Another 1 billion years to evolve through fish and reptiles to mammals
† Then evolution seemed to have speeded up and only took about a hundred million years to develop from the early mammals to us JGomes, SBS IITD

Was life supposed to evolve?
„ What we normally think of as life is based on chains of carbon atoms with a few other primary atoms such as oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen and phosphorous. „ What about silicon‐based life?
„ Yes, maybe! but carbon‐based seems the most favorable because it has the richest chemistry
The Anthropic Principle:
Principle
For a given universe, it is possible, that for a small number the values physical constants, will allow the existence of objects like carbon atoms that can act as the building blocks of living systems JGomes, SBS IITD

Why did life occur?
„ We don’t have an answer!
„ The anthropic principle tells us that it would have happened if not on planet earth, then on some other planet
„ We do know, by observation, what are the properties that define life
† Have a set of instructions that tell the system how to sustain and reproduce itself
† A mechanism to carry out the instructions
„ By the second law of thermodynamics, to do this, we need to have order
JGomes, SBS IITD

Order
„ How do you determine if a system has order ‐ in the sense of structured‐ness and organization ?
† Self Organization
† Complexity
† Emergence of new properties „ One of the most fundamental problems in biology concerns the origin of forms and their associated functions
„ It has been an important question of developmental biology
Second law of Thermodynamics state that the entropy (disorder) of
the universe is continuously increasing with time.
Therefore, decrease of entropy, as in a cell, is permitted if the
corresponding increase in entropy in the environment is greater.

Order in inanimate systems
a) In a liquid layer, molecules are agitated by thermal motion. b) The molecules in the liquid layer are heated from below (red zone) and self‐organize into rolls (drawn in cross‐section) when the temperature reaches a critical value (tc). At this value, the molecules start to move collectively either up or down at point 0, which determines the alternative orientation of the rotation of the rolls throughout the layer. The orientation of the rotation choice is unpredictable and determined by local fluctuations at tc

The boundary: inanimate to animate
„ The concepts of interaction free energies, molecular geometry and entropy, when taken together, furnish a framework for a theory of self‐assembly or self‐organization
„ Micelles and bilayer vesicles assembly are driven by hydrophobic and hydrophilic interaction ‐ of two ʹopposing forcesʺ „ Size of the micelle is determined by ʺoptimal surface areaʺ per head group at which the total interaction free energy per lipid molecule is a minimum.

Urey Miller Experiment
„ In 1953 Stanley Miller and Harold Urey performed the first experiment that produced amino acids in what was assumed to be a pre‐life atmosphere. They passed a mixture of water vapor, methane, hydrogen and ammonia gases through an electric arc to simulate what would happen if these gases were subjected to lightning.
Result: „ 10 biologic amino acid types
25 non‐biologic amino acid types Formaldehyde
Sugars

First proteins
„ In the presence of kaolinite, amino acids are picked up from an aqueous solvent and brought into solid solution
† Amino groups become hydrogen bonded to structural oxygen
† In water, amino acids cannot polymerize because of dipole‐dipole interactions
† In solid solution, however, amino acids will polymerize, because the solvent medium does not interfere
† about 1000 times more amino acids were polymerized to peptides „ Kaolinite is also instrumental in preferentially synthesizing pentoses
and hexoses from formaldehyde and transforming them into polysaccharides
„ Preferential polymerization of L‐amino acids on kaolinite can be attributed to the inherent enantiomorphism of the edges of the octahedral layer of kaolinite
JGomes, SBS IITD
15
Formation of polynucleotides and
polypeptides
„ Nucleotides of four kinds (here represented by the single letters A, U, G, and C) can undergo spontaneous polymerization with the loss of water. The product is a mixture of polynucleotides that are random in length and sequence. „ Similarly, amino acids of different types, symbolized here by three‐
letter abbreviated names, can polymerize with one another to form polypeptides. Present‐day proteins are built from a standard set of 20 types of amino acids.
JGomes, SBS IITD
16
Polynucleotides as templates
„ Preferential binding occurs between pairs of nucleotides (G with C and U with A) by relatively weak chemical bonds
JGomes, SBS IITD
17
Replication of a polynucleotide sequence
„ The original RNA molecule acts as a template to form an RNA molecule of complementary sequence.
„ This complementary RNA molecule itself acts as a template, forming RNA molecules of the original sequence. Since each templating molecule can produce many copies of the complementary strand, these reactions can result in the ʺmultiplicationʺ of the original sequence
JGomes, SBS IITD

Conformation of an RNA molecule
JGomes, SBS IITD
19
Evolutionary significance of cell-like
compartments
„ Any improved form of RNA that is able to promote formation of a more useful protein must share this protein with its neighboring competitors. „ If the RNA is enclosed within a compartment, such as a lipid membrane, then any protein the RNA causes to be made is retained for its own use; the RNA can therefore be selected on the basis of its guiding production of a better protein.
JGomes, SBS IITD

Central Dogma
Suggested stages of evolution from simple self‐replicating systems of RNA molecules to present‐
day cells. Today, DNA is the repository of genetic information and RNA acts largely as a go‐between to direct protein synthesis

Last Universal Common
Ancestor
„ The evolution of the translation apparatus occurred in a series of increasingly complex stages, rather than all at once, „ The stages subsequent to the establishment of the basic mechanism were concerned by and large with increasing the mechanismʹs accuracy, and possibly speed as well

22
Evolution of Metabolic Pathways
„ The cell on the left is provided with a supply of related substances (A, B, C, and D) produced by prebiotic
synthesis. One of these, substance D, is metabolically useful. As the cell exhausts the available supply of D, a selective advantage is obtained by the evolution of a new enzyme that is able to produce D from the closely related substance C. Fundamentally important metabolic pathways may have evolved by a series of similar steps. „ On the right, a metabolically useful compound A is available in abundance. An enzyme appears in the course of evolution that, by chance, has the ability to convert substance A to substance B. Other changes then occur within the cell that enable it to make use of the new substance. The appearance of further enzymes can build up a long chain of reactions. JGomes, SBS IITD

Summary
„ Autocatalytic mechanisms fundamental to living systems began with the evolution of families of RNA molecules that could catalyze their own replication. „ Families of cooperating RNA catalysts developed the ability to direct synthesis of polypeptides. „ Accumulation of additional protein catalysts allowed more efficient and complex cells to evolve, the DNA double helix replaced RNA as a more stable molecule for storing the increased amounts of genetic information required by such cells
„ Present‐day living cells are classified as procaryotic
(bacteria and their close relatives) or eucaryotic.

Development and Evolutionary Change
Lecture 2
Development and Evolutionary
Change
„ All anemonefish (clownfish) begin life as males. The largest male in the social group will change sex to become the group’s only female
„ The social environment determines its sex
„ If the female is removed, the largest male changes into a female

Evolutionary Developmental Biology
„ Evolutionary developmental biologists investigate how the course of evolution has been influenced by heritable changes in the development of organisms
†
To study how genes have changed during the course of evolution. † To understand large evolutionary changes, such as the evolution of eyes, wings, and flowers, biologists study both developing and adult organisms, because the agents of evolution work not only on adults but on the “recipes” for making adults.
JGomes, SBS IITD

Early Development Similarities
„ Adult barnacles do not clearly resemble adults of other crustaceans
„ The similarities between their larvae shows that these animals share a recent common ancestor
JGomes, SBS IITD
31
„ The instructions for forming embryos are provided by homologous genes in vertebrates and invertebrates, even though the structures formed from those instructions are very different. „ The enormous variation of morphological forms found in the animal kingdom is underlain by a common set of instructions

ancestor
„ In the insect lineage (blue) of the arthropods, a mutation in the Ubx gene resulted in a protein that inhibits a gene that is required for legs to form. Because insects express Ubx in their abdominal segments, no legs grow from these segments. Other arthropods, such as centipedes, do grow legs from their abdominal segments.

Plant development
„ Plant cells do not move relative to one another
„ Plant cells do not move during development whereas cells move significantly during animal development and determine the final shape of the adult
„ Future reproductive cells are not set aside early during plant development
„ Instead, throughout their lives, plants continue to produce clusters of undifferentiated, actively dividing cells, called meristems. Meristems allow a plant to develop and form new organs, such as stems, roots, leaves, and flowers, as long as it grows
„ Plants have tremendous developmental plasticity
„ If an herbivore eats part of a plant, leaf meristems may grow out and replace the lost part.

„ Natural History of Animals, which contained a clear statement of the possibility of evolution
„ He also noticed that the legs of certain mammals, such as pigs, have toes that never touch the ground and appear to be of no use
„ He found it difficult to explain the presence of these seemingly useless small toes and suggested that the limb bones of mammals might all have been inherited from a common ancestor

Lamarckian Evolution
„ Jean‐Baptiste de Lamarck (1744–1829)
†
First Law: A lineage of organisms could change gradually over many generations as offspring inherited structures that had become larger and more highly developed as a result of continued use or, conversely, had become smaller and less developed as a result of lack of use.
† Second Law: All the acquisitions or losses wrought by nature on individuals, through the influence of the environment are preserved by reproduction to the new individuals which arise, provided that the acquired modifications are common to both sexes JGomes, SBS IITD

1.
Darwin’s theory rests on three observations and one conclusion he drew from them.
Observations:
The reproductive rates of all organisms, even slowly reproducing ones, are sufficiently high that populations would quickly become enormous if death rates were not equally high.
Within each type of organism, there are differences among individuals.
Offspring are similar to their parents because they inherit their parents’ features.
Conclusion:
The differences among individuals influence how well those individuals survive and reproduce. Any traits that increase the probability that their bearers will survive and reproduce are passed on to their offspring and to their offspring’s offspring.

Mendelian Inheritance
„ The inheritance of each trait is determined by ʺunitsʺ or ʺfactorsʺ that are passed on to descendents unchanged „ An individual inherits one such unit from each parent for each trait
„ A trait may not show up in an individual but can still be passed on to the next generation.
JGomes, SBS IITD
44
Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium
„ The Hardy‐Weinberg Theorem deals with Mendelian genetics
„allele frequencies in a population will not 1. change from generation to generation.
„if the allele frequencies in a population with two alleles at a locus are p and q, then the expected genotype frequencies are p2, 2pq, and q2. This frequency distribution will not change from generation to generation once a population is in Hardy‐Weinberg equilibrium.
JGomes, SBS IITD
45
„ Assumptions:
Hardy-Weinberg
†
Natural selection is not acting on the locus in question (i.e., there are no consistent differences in probabilities of survival or reproduction among genotypes).
† Neither mutation (the origin of new alleles) nor migration (the movement of individuals and their genes into or out of the population) is introducing new alleles into the population.
† Population size is infinite, which means that genetic drift is not causing random changes in allele frequencies due to sampling error from one generation to the next. Of course, all natural populations are finite and thus subject to drift, but we expect the effects of drift to be more pronounced in small than in large populations.
† Individuals in the population mate randomly with respect to the locus in question. Although non‐random mating does not change allele frequencies from one generation to the next if the other assumptions hold.

What is Evolution
„ Evolution is change in the inherited traits of a population through successive generations. When living organisms reproduce, they pass on to their progeny a collection of traits.
† patterns in a butterflyʹs wing or the number of scales on a crocodile or the spots in a leopard
† Changes (mutations) in the sequence of nucleotide bases that make up an organismʹs DNA
„ Evolution does not progress toward an ultimate or proximate goal (Gould 1989). Evolution is not ʺgoing somewhere“
„ It just describes changes in inherited traits over time. Occasionally, and perhaps inevitably, this change results in increases in biological complexity, but to interpret this as ʺprogressʺ is to misunderstand the mechanism

Principle of polymerase chain reaction
(PRC) to amplify target DNA sequence
„ It is possible to take a small sample of tissue to obtain enough DNA for study. „ This contrasts with earlier approaches that often required large amounts of DNA or protein, which often meant killing the organism of study

Molecular Eecology: Chetahs
„ The development of molecular markers has led to an explosion of studies that have used them to answer questions ranging from 1. relatedness among species
2. evolutionary history of populations
3. amount of genetic variation within a species
4. patterns of behavior
5. how patterns of gene expression can vary among closely related populations
JGomes, SBS IITD

Species Divergence
„ Radio telemetry to track the migration of animals. However, their mating behaviour
cannot be tracked using this method
† Reproductive success is an indication of fitness and, therefore, of the long‐term survival of a population — a fundamental issue in ecology
† A DNA‐based approach can provide much more insight into the mating behaviors of dispersing animals.
JGomes, SBS IITD
54
Limitations of Molecular Ecology
„ Marker development can be time‐consuming and expensive. „ While it can be beneficial that molecular ecology is not dependent on direct observation of behaviours, this benefit can often be a limitation
„ Behaviour is not directly observed, there can often be multiple explanations for the same observed pattern
„ It is not practical to look at the entire genome of all organisms, so one must look at a small subset of markers
„ Hence the choice of marker may affect the pattern observed

Mutation for Evolution
„ Definition: A changeinthe DNA sequence of the organism
„ What causes mutation
„ Radiation, Chemicals in the environment
„ Errors during DNA replication
„ The human genome, for example, contains over 3.1 billion bases of DNA, and each base must be faithfully replicated for cell division to occur
„ About one in every 1010 (10,000,000,000) base pair is changed

Diverse Life Histories
„ Environmental variation
„ Life histories evolve in response to the environment (i.e., extrinsic factors) as well as to internal constraints. The environment is continually changing, giving natural selection a ʺmoving target“
„ Random Variation
„ Increased mortality and variability in mortality in the juvenile
period both favour the evolution of delayed reproduction, provided that delaying reproduction increases the chance of producing viable offspring
„ These variations may force short term reduction of fitness to achieve the long term goal of survival
…
…
Vegetative dormancy in plants
Orchids produce fruits with thousands of dust seeds
„ Predictable Environmental Variation
„ Cycles are routine and repeated, and do not change dramatically in any random or deterministic way
…
one genotype produces different phenotypes under different environmental conditions

58
Environmental Influences
„ How should organisms respond to signals from the environment in order to develop adaptively?
† No single way of responding to signals from the environment results in adaptation because what environmental signals tell an organism varies with the type of signal
„Environmental signals that are accurate predictors of future conditions
„Environmental signals that are poorly correlated with future conditions. JGomes, SBS IITD

Evolution of Hominins
„ Features common to all primates include limber joints, grasping hands and feet with opposable digits, face altered for stereoscopic vision and good touch sensitivity. „ These characters probably originally evolved as adaptations to arboreal life about 65 million years ago.
„ Two major groups of primates:
†
Prosimians are the most basal primates, and are small, arboreal species that move among trees by brachiating. These include lemurs, lorises and tarsiers.
† Hominoids (= apes) are within the Anthropoids, and generally have higher brain to body weight ratios and rely more on sight than on smell.
JGomes, SBS IITD
61
Features of Hominins
„ Hominins probably evolved from an ancestor common with apes and chimps about 5‐7 mya. „ The lineage includes Australopithecus, which shows features intermediate between man and other anthropoids „ The lineage shows evolutionary trends in five major features: 1. Bipedal posture: upright posture and two‐legged walking. 2. A more juvenile facial shape, such as shorter jaws, flatter faces and more pronounced chins 3. Increased brain size relative to body mass, with language, symbolic thought and ability for complex tools (occurred AFTER bipedal posture)
4. Reduced size difference between sexes, probably correlated with a more monogamous lifestyle.
5. Family structure: increased pair‐bonding between mates as well as the period and larger extent of juvenile dependence on parental care.

Footprints
„ In 1976, members of a team led by Mary Leakey discovered the fossilized footprints of human ancestors in Laetoli, Africa. The footprints were formed 3.5 million years ago when at least two individuals walked over wet volcanic ash. The wet ash hardened like cement and was then covered by more ash
„ The footprints also look remarkably like a humanʹs. In fact, they looked so human‐like, some scientists had a hard time believing that they were made by Australopithecus afarensis
(Lucyʹs species), the only human ancestor known to have lived at the time

Neanderthals: larger eyes and
smaller brains?
„ Neanderthals had larger eye sockets – and a larger brain area devoted to sight – than in modern humans. When the larger visual system is subtracted from total brain size, our extinct cousins actually had a smaller rest of the brain than did fossil Homo sapiens.
Homo sapiens (Cro‐Magnon, left) and Homo neanderthalensis (Amud, right): Despite having the same total brain volume, the large eyes of Neanderthals suggest that less of the brain focused on other mental tasks.
