Understanding Evolution: Mutation, Variation, and Adaptation in Organisms

This lesson explores the concepts of mutation, variation, and adaptation in the context of evolution. Students will engage in activities that demonstrate these principles through examples of camouflage and mimicry. They'll define key terms in their own words (IYOW) and discuss the relationships among them. The session will emphasize the evidence for evolution from fossil records and genetic studies. Homework and projects are due soon, so students should come prepared and ready to participate in discussions and collaborative learning activities.
