Heredity & Reproduction
Guiding Question
What are the principal mechanisms by which living things reproduce and transmit information between parents and offspring? Learning Outcomes1. Observe variation in traits among members of a population.
2. Manipulate models to determine the relationship between sexual reproduction and inherited variations. 3. Analyze data about changes in a population experiencing selective pressure to identify patterns of evolution. 4. Explain how the traits expressed by members of a population can change over time. 5. Investigate fossils in sedimentary rock layers to gather evidence of changing life forms. 6. Explain why variation within a population can enhance the chances for group survival.
