Natural Selection & Adaptations

Part I

We will define evolution and its key drivers. We will then look at how natural selection is the process by which populations of organisms are better suited to their environment. This is a SMART board presentation.

Part II

Utilizing some of the animal ambassadors at the Zoo, we will look at how specific adaptations give them an advantage in their environment and in reproduction.
