The document outlines learning goals for unit F on evolution. It lists 9 activities that focus on evolutionary concepts like explaining how evolution accounts for diversity, examples of adaptations that confer survival advantages during environmental changes, and inferring relatedness between species based on anatomical features. The learning goals are to explain evidence for evolution and diversity, give examples of adaptations, and infer relatedness using anatomical evidence.

- 1. Unit F: Evolution Learning Goals Activity Content Standard Performance Expectations Learning Goals Activity 89: Here Today, Gone Tomorrow? Activity 90: Figuring Out Fossils Activity 94: A Meeting of Minds Activity 95: Hiding in the Background Activity 96: Battling Beaks Activity 97: Origins of Species Activity 99: A Whale of a Tale Activity 100: DNA – The Evidence Within LS3A:The scientific theoryofevolution underlies the study of biology and explains both the diversityof life on Earth and similarities of all organismsat the chemical, cellular, and molecular level. Evolutionis supported by multiple forms of scientific evidence. Explain and provideevidenceof how biological evolutionaccounts for the diversityof specieson Earth today. I I can explain using evidence how biological evolution accounts for the diversity of species on Earth today. Activity 89: Here Today, Gone Tomorrow? Activity 94: A Meeting of Minds Activity 95: Hiding in the Background Activity 96: Battling Beaks Activity 97: Origins of Species LS3E: Adaptationsare physical or behavioral changes that are inherited and enhance the ability of an organismto survive and reproduce in a particular environment. Give an example of a plant or animal adaptationthat would confer a survival and reproductive advantage during a given environmentalchange. I can give examples of plant and animal adaptations that increase the success of an organism during an environmental change. Activity 90: Figuring Out Fossils Activity 94: A Meeting of Minds Activity 97: Origins of Species Activity 99: A Whale of a Tale LS3G: Evidencefor evolutionincludes similarities among anatomical and cell structures, and patternsof development make it possible to infer degree of relatedness among organisms. Infer the degree of relatedness of two species, given diagrams of anatomicalfeatures of the two species(e.g., chicken wing, whale flipper, human hand, bee leg). I can infer how closely related two species are based on their anatomicalfeatures LEARNING GOALS: I can explain using evidence how biological evolution accounts for the diversity of species on Earth today. I can give examples of plant and animal adaptations that increase the success of an organism during an environmental change.
