课程名称：生物学导论：进化 课程概述：进化是生物学中最有趣且至关重要的领域之一，理解现代生物学需要掌握这个概念。课程开始于查尔斯·达尔文如何形成自然选择的进化理论，并探讨自他生平以来生物学家如何推进进化科学。随后，我们将学习进化生物学在日常生活中的多种应用。 课程大纲： - 欢迎来到进化 - 模块1：进化的起源 本模块将探讨从古希腊到维多利亚时代的进化观念变化，以及两位自然学家如何独立发展自然选择的进化理论。 - 模块2：进化是如何运作的 学习达尔文关于自然选择的进化理论，其他进化机制的工作原理，以及如何使用哈迪-温伯格原理来判断种群是否在进化。 - 模块3：大进化 本模块将讲解物种形成的过程，如何使用系统发生树描绘进化关系，以及系统发生学的一些实际应用。 - 模块4：进化证据 学习多种进化的证据，包括化石记录、生物地理学、比较解剖学和直接观察，并认识到进化在耐药细菌发展中的作用。 - 课程最终评估与总结 此课程旨在深化对进化生物学的理解，并展示其在生活中的实际应用。
Name:Welcome to Evolution
Description:
Name:Module 1: On the Origins of Evolution
Description:In this module, we will learn how ideas about evolution changed from ancient Greece to Victorian England, when two naturalists independently developed a theory of evolution by natural selection.
Name:Module 2: How Evolution Works
Description:In this module, we will learn what Darwin proposed about evolution by natural selection, how the other mechanisms of evolution work, and how the Hardy-Weinberg Principle can be used to determine whether a population is evolving.
Name:Module 3: Macroevolution
Description:In this module, we will learn about the process of speciation, how evolutionary relationships can be depicted using phylogenetic trees, and some of the practical applications of phylogenetics.
Name:Module 4: Evidence for Evolution
Description:In this module, we will learn about the many different types of evidence for evolution– including the fossil record, biogeography, comparative anatomy, and direct observation– and gain an appreciation for the role of evolution in the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
Name:Course Final Assessment & Conclusion
Description:
Evolution is one of the most interesting fields within biology, and one that’s central to a complete understanding of modern biology. We begin by tracing how Charles Darwin developed a theory of evolution by natural selection and the many ways that biologists have advanced the science of evolution since his lifetime. We then go on to learn about the many applications of evolutionary biology to our everyday lives.
