  1. Chapter 29 Evolution Pg 605

  2. Scientific Method: Turn to page 15 in textbook • Problem • Hypothesis- Statement that can be tested- what you think will happen… • Experiment- Testing a hypothesis using a series of steps with controlled conditions • Conclusion- Was the problem solved? • Theory- A hypothesis that has been tested again and again & received similar results each time

  3. Lab #1: Problem How is color an adaptation? This lab we will be conducting at the end of class after we have learned some key evolutionary concepts. You need to understand all of the steps of the Scientific Method in order to be successful in your first lab!

  4. PG 606How do scientists explain the fact that living things are well suited to where the live? Adaptations What is adaptation?

  5. Adaptation: A trait that makes a living thing able to survive in its surrounding Example of an adaptation: Webbing bw the toes of a bird How does this help the bird? The bird can swim faster. The webbing creates more surface area, allowing the bird to apply more force against the surrounding water. 

  6. How do adaptations help living things survive? Mice & Owls page 607 Volunteer Reader Key Vocab Word: Unfavorable trait

  7. Lab Time!!!

  8. Today’s Agenda:1. Finish Collecting Lab Data2. Discuss Post-Lab Questions Briefly3. Page 609- Topic Natural Selection4. Discuss Peppered Moth Study
