1 Evolution and Natural Selection Evolution in its simplest form is change over time. How much time have organisms had to change? Name: Due: 1 Please describe some of the history associated with evolution and the persons associated with this science theory.
2 Which rock layer is the oldest and which is the youngest, Label them below? Please describe using pictures how changes in the fossil record and relative dating can be used as an evidence of evolution. Remember the Principle of Superposition. 2
3 Is there any connection between lobe-finned fish and early amphibian fossils? Please describe these connections in detail in the space below. 3 Why do whales have leg bones? What is the picture on the right? Why is this important to understanding evolution?
4 What changes do you see in bones of these different horse species over the last several millions years. Sketch in what the missing fossils may look like. 4 Please complete the diagram below so it represents how living things that are on the earth today share a common ancestor. Please make references to extinctions. What words are hidden in the boxes?
5 Write a really good description of why giraffes have long necks. Write a really bad description of why giraffes have long necks. 5 Draw a lion and describe mechanism #1. Draw a small herd of zebra and describe mechanism #2. Draw a giraffe eating from this one tree (#3) Make each zebra slightly different (#4) Make a baby zebra like its parent but slightly different (#5) #3.) #2.) #4.) #5.) #1.) + + = Natural Selection.
6 Summarize how a new species may be formed in divergent evolution? Remember the Hypotheticus. 6 Please describe how this picture represents convergent evolution.
7 Describe how the types of feet below allow the bird to be successful at.? Describe why this is an adaptation. 7
8 EARTH SYSTEM HISTORY Name: Due: 8 This photograph best represents what Principle? Please explain using some of the fossils on the right. Please circle the fossil that is older based on this principle or or or or What happened at #10?
9 Please record the name of time periods from earliest to latest in their chronological order below. Use the boxes beneath to group them according Era 9 H A D E A N C A M B R I A N T R I A S S I C Q U A R T E R N A R Y Eon Eon Eon Period Period Period Period Period Period Period Period Period Period PeriodPeriod Precambrian Super-Eon Many aspects of science including earth system history have,, and components. - Laws of nature do not change over time. What percentage of all species that ever lived still exist today? (Caution! Re-read Question) Research one creature that has gone extinct. Draw a quick sketch, its name, and some relevant information.
10 Please use the line below as the history of the earth from 4.6 billion years ago until present. Record the events on the left in the correct order and space them accordingly along the timeline. 10 Moon Forms Earliest Life Begins Human Civilization Earliest Mammals First Insects First Multicellular Life Carbon Swamps First Flowering Plants Computer Age Dinosaurs Rule K-T Mass Extinction Earliest Humans Age of Exploration Formation of the Earth Age of Fish Last Ice Age Age of Marine Invertebrates First Human Hominid Hadean Cenozoic Proterozoic Mesozoic Paleozoic Archean Today Start End Include a when an extinction event occurs. There have been a few.
11 Please look at the pictures below and describe the best time period that each picture represent. Record some information about each photograph as well. 11 First evidence of life Not K-T Mass Extinction First Amphibian Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

13 13 Human Evolution Name: Please describe why this family portrait is inaccurate according to earth system history What is a hominid? How do Paleoanthropologists know what they know?
14 Below is a copied page from a science textbook, please read this page about human evolution. Note It is the only page on the topic. 14
15 Did this page help you understand human evolution? What did it include, and what did it leave out? Should I teach human evolution from this book? 15 Please rewrite the textbook in the space below. Provide helpful visuals in the open spaces
16 Please put these hominid skulls (1-4) in order from the oldest to the youngest, Provide a rationale for why you choose the oldest, a middle one, and the most recent. 16
17 Sketch out a one square cartoon that includes a fact about any human hominid. Your cartoon must describe the name and something specific / accurate to that hominid. 17
18 Life Origins Name: 18 While looking under the microscope, you observe the object below. How can you determine if this is a living creature? What will it need to survive if it is living? Which, if any of the four ideas on the origin of life mentioned in class do you believe? Why? The only wrong answer is no answer at all, unless you give a good reason as to why you have no good reason, but that reason better be a good reason.
19 Please describe Francesco Redi s (1668) experiment that disproved spontaneous generation. 19 Please use the filmstrip below to take five snap shots of the earth over the last 16 billion years. Record a brief statement of what is happening under your drawing.
20 Please describe as much as possible about Miller-Urey (1953) and their study concerning primitive earth. Please include the SPONCH elements where appropriate. 20 How did water aid in the origin of life? Don t forget, (Solvent, Medium, Participant) NICE WORK! DO NOT LOSE! PUT IN YOUR SCIENCE FOLDER! Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
21 ECOLOGICAL SUCCESION Name: 21 Do this question last! What is the essence of ecological succession? Which picture represents primary succession and which picture represents secondary succession?
22 Why does it take longer for trees to grow when starting from primary succession? 22 Why does growth tend to occur faster during secondary succession? Describe the role of lichens in early ecological succession. Decorate the rock below as a visual to help you explain.
23 Please sketch in plants and animals to show 200 years of ecological succession in six pictures spread out over time. Provide with text some of the plant species represented in your drawings in the space below each box. 23 The early stages Early Middle Middle Stages Late Middle Stages Late Stages Climax Community
24 24 Describe some events that will turn this climax community back to the beginning of secondary succession.
25 25 Describe the order of the pond ages from youngest to oldest based on aquatic ecological succession. Which is Oligio, Meso, and Eutrophic? Youngest, Next oldest Next oldest The Oldest Why did you put them in that order? NICE WORK! THIS WAS A DIFFICULT ASSESSMENT. DO NOT LOSE! PUT IN YOUR SCIENCE FOLDER! Please color the pictures on the next page and record info in the white space. Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
