Variation lab day2
1. Reminders End of the semester is in a week a half! Check your student view Make an appointment with Miss Baker for make-up work! Re-take for Natural Selection Exam Due Friday
7. How we look at our data: Did you all get measurements in cm? If you didn’t take all your measurements in cm, can you easily compare heights using different units of measurement? Why or why not? Did you all measure the apple circumferences the same way as neighboring groups from which you received data? How can you be sure? Why were our graphs so problematic? Do your graphs tell you anything with a degree of certainty about a population of spinach plants? Why or why not? Can we learn about selective pressures from our small amount of data? Why or why not? Why do we need a larger sample size?
8.
9. Write down the total variation for spinach leaf width in the population in a data table in your lab and create a new graph.
16. Re-evaluating the data: What are some possible reasons (selection pressures) for the shape of the class spinach leaf graph? How could we test these hypotheses?
17. Make some predictions: If we saw the population of an apple-eating-insect grow in size, and we saw an apple fruit circumference size grow over time, what could we call this evolution pattern?
