Our warm up today shows an example of an adaptation that made the news this month. Please read the article and watch the video on the alligators in North and South Carolina. Next, we did an around the room activity going through 9 stations on evolution. These stations reviewed Geological Evolution (Pangaea, continental drift) and Biological Evolution(natural selection, genetic variation). Below you can find all of the stations and the questions if you were absent. The answers go on page 59.
Just a heads up----and I will explain next class I placed the following assignment in Canvas on Biological Evolution. We have been covering Biological Evolution for the last couple of weeks and we have covered quite of few pieces of evidence that help support and explain evolution. Choose 3 any three pieces of evidence. Describe in detail that piece of evidence. You can use anything we talked about in class. If you are talking about the bird beak lab, describe the lab. If you are talking about vestigial organs, describe and give examples of vestigial organs. In that same paragraph explain how this example shows/proves/supports evolution. Your assignment should only be 3 paragraphs, one for each example you are choosing to write about. Please start the first paragraph with a short explanation of what is Biological Evolution before leading into the 3 examples you are choosing to write about. FYI - Evolution and Natural Selection Quiz Monday January 29th and Tuesday January 30th, 2018 First formal grade of 3rd Quarter!!!
