Biology Unit 3 Day 3

Language Objective: Students will learn about biodiversity and will interpret and analyze maps and data using technical vocabulary: variation, natural selection.

Questions:

1. When do you think a mutation considered an adaptation?
2. Can a trait be an adaptation in one ecosystem but a disadvantage in another? Give an example.

Unit 3 Day 3: So far we've learned about 2 components of natural selection (differentiated survival and adaptations). Based on what you've learned, what is your opinion about only the best surviving?
