AP Biology: Griffin TCHS 2013-2014 CURRICULUM MAP Course: AP Biology Unit 7: Evolutionary Biology Essential Questions: What is evolution? What processes drive evolution? What is the evidence for evolution? How do new species form? How are the relationships between species illustrated? Where and how did life begin on earth? Is evolution a continuing process? Length of Unit: 3 weeks AP Big Ideas: 1,4 1. The process of evolution drives the diversity and unity of life 4.Biological systems interact, and these systems and their interactions possess complex properties Enduring Understandings: Science Practices for AP Biology SP 1. The student can use reprosentations and models to communicate scientific phenomena and solve scientific problems. SP2.The student can use mathematics appropriately SP3: The student can engage in scientific questioning to extend thinking or go guide investigations with the context of the AP course. SP4.The student can plan and implement data collection strategies appropriate to a particular scientific question. SP5.The student can perform data analysis and evaluation of evidence. SP6: The student can work with scientific explanations and theories SP7: The student is able to connect and relate knowledge across various scales, concepts and reprosentations in and across domains. Essential Knowledge 1a.Change in genetic makeup of a population over time is evolution 1b.Organisms are linked by lines of descent from common ancestry 1c.Life continues to evolve within a changing environment 1d.The origin of living systems is explained by natural processes 4a. interactions within biological systems lead to complex properties 4b. competition and cooperation are important aspects of biological systems 4c. naturally occurring diversity among and between components within biological systems affects interactions with the environment 1.A.1: Natural selection is a major mechanism of eolution 1.A.2: Natural selection acts on phenotypic variations in populations 1A.3: Evolutionar change is also dirven by random processes 1A.4: Biological evolution is supported by scientific evidence from amny disciplines, includig mathematics 1.B.1: Organisms share many conserved core processes and features that evolved and are widely distributed among organisms today 1.B.2: Phylogenetic trees and cladograms are graphical representations of evolutionary history that can be tested 1.C.1: Speciation and extinction have occurred throughout the Earth’s history. 1.C.2: Speciation may occur when two populations become reproductively isolated from each other 1.C.3: Populations of organisms continue to evolve 1.D.1. There are several hypotheses about the natural origin of life on Earth, each with supporting scientific evidence 1.D.2: Scientific evidence from many different disciplines supports models of the origin of life.
