Evolution
Evolution There are three parts to this lab. In part one, you will explore a fossil site, sketch a fossil, and write a short paragraph about the fossil and one of the fossil sites you visited. In part two, you will create a phylogenic tree, print and cut out all the caminalcules (you don’t have to be precise, and should leave the numbers attached), and glue the caminalcules to the tree following the instructions provided. In part three, use the tree to answer the six problems at the end of this document. Part 1: Fossil Record1. Write a short paragraph about one of the sites you “visited”.I visited National Geographic and looked through lots of pictures and facts about fossils. There are so many different types of fossils, coming in all different shapes and sizes. There would be a picture of a fossil with a paragraph next to it sharing information about the fossil. The website was very informative and helpful. 2. Make a sketch of your favorite fossil.3. Write a one-paragraph description to accompany your sketch.I sketched an example of a Stromatolite fossil. These types of fossils are the oldest fossils found at the Grand Canyon. I found this fossil to be very pretty and unique, and that’s why I chose it to be the fossil I sketched.
