Evolution by Natural Selection | |
Download Student Handout Download Teacher Notes High School Activity: Principles of natural selection are demonstrated by a simulation involving different color pompoms on different color and texture habitats and student feeders equipped with different types of feeding implement. Students learn how different adaptations contribute to differences in survival and reproductive success, which results in changing frequencies of genotypes in the populations. More... |
