Document Summary

Eco: evo in present moment: what is eco, why talk about eco in evo course, adaptations affected by biotic & abiotic env.

Ecology: study of distribution and abundance of organisms. Food for thought: galapagos- single species evolved into 13 finch species. 3 factors of climate: variation in light intensity around earth: affect temp & rainfall, poles, more sun"s rays absorbed bc travel farther thru atm, rays strike earth at oblique angle so more spread out aka.
