UNIT 4.1 Student Progress Monitoring (SPM)
1.
Internal Adaptations- 7.12A
Investigate and explain how internal structures of organisms have adaptations that allow specific functions such as gills in fish,
hollow bones in birds, or xylem in plants.
Vocab:
adaptation
variation
internal structures
functions
gills
xylem
hollow
survival advantage
Questions:
A.
B.
C.
D.
Define internal adaptation. An inside structure that helps the organism survive.
What internal adaptation allows birds to fly?
What internal adaption allows fish to breath underwater?
What adaptation has allowed plants to grow taller and carry water against gravity from the roots upwards in a
plant?
2.
External Adaptations- 7.11B
Explain variation within a population or species by comparing external features, behaviors, or physiology of organisms that
enhance their survival such as migration, hibernation, or storage of food in a bulb.
Vocab:
behavior/ physiology
external structures
enhanced survival ability
migration
hibernation
Questions:
A. Define external adaptation.
B. Explain the difference between a structural adaptation and a behavioral adaptation.
C. What behavioral adaptations (list 2) have allowed organisms to survive a harsh environment that has dramatic
temperature changes from very hot to very cold?
D. When the environment changes, organisms get M.A.D. What does this acronym stand for?
3.
Natural Selection/ Selective Breeding- 7.11C
Identify some changes in genetic traits that have occurred over several generations through natural selection and selective breeding
such as the Galapagos Medium Ground Finch or domestic animals.
Vocab:
natural selection
selective breeding
Darwin’s finches
domestic animals
mutation
Questions:
A. How is natural selection different from selective breeding?
B. Explain how natural selection occurs.
C. Provide 3 examples of natural selection.
-peppered moth as mentioned above
-a bee pollinates a certain flower
-wild animals mating (such as squirrels in the forest)
D. Explain how mutations can positively affect a species in terms of natural selection. Explain how selective
breeding occurs.
E. Provide 3 examples of selective breeding.
4. Dichotomous Keys 7.11A
Questions:
A. What is the function or purpose of a dichotomous key?
B. Examine organisms or their structures such as insects and/or leaves using a dichotomous key for identification.
