Topic

Number One

 

Question:

What can separate one species from reproducing with another species?

 

What “barriers” between species can be crossed?

 

What is an example of a “boing” situation?

 

Using the hand out on snails, can you give examples for 4 isolation mechanisms in other species.

Topic

Number Two

Question: How can a family tree be used to show changes in the structures found in elephant teeth?

 

Note

1.   Record data on graph with family number

2.   Connect related family tree names.

3.   No graph line can go vertical. Why?

4.   Plates on the teeth are linked to types of food the elephant can eat.

5.   How is this related to the evolution of the elephant?

 

 
Topic

Number Three

 

Directional Change is a slow and gradual change. An example is the case study of evolution of the horse.

 

In the elephant lab there is both directional and nondirectional change.

 

How are these changes related to isolation mechanisms?

Take Home Message Isolate a species and that can change how it evolves.

Some changes may be linear and other may branch. Why?

 

Why would a wooly mammoth not survive if it was genetically engineered today?
