Unit Lesson Plan – Evolution and Population Genetics Teacher: Grade: Subject: Click here to enter text. Time Frame: 11 15 days School: PSI Biology AP Instructional Objective: (condition, behavior, standard) Instructional Objective: (condition, behavior, standard) Instructional Objective: (condition, behavior, standard) Instructional Objective: (condition, behavior, standard) Instructional Objective: (condition, behavior, standard) Instructional Objective: (condition, behavior, standard) Instructional Objective: (condition, behavior, standard) Essential Knowledge 1.A.1 - Natural selection is a major mechanism of evolution. Essential Knowledge 1.A.2 - Natural selection acts on phenotypic variations in populations. Essential Knowledge 1.A.3 - Evolutionary change is also driven by random processes. Essential Knowledge 1.B.1 - Organisms share many conserved core processes and features that evolved and are widely distributed among organisms today. Essential Knowledge 1.C.1 - Speciation and extinction have occurred throughout the Earth’s history. Essential Knowledge 1.C.3: Populations of organisms continue to evolve. Essential Knowledge 4.C.3 - The level of variation in a population affects population dynamics. Essential Questions (What questions will the student be able to answer as a result of the instruction?) 1. 2. 3. 4. What evidence do we have which supports the theory that all life has a common ancestor? How do populations change over time? How do random events affect the evolution of populations? How can evolution be described quantitatively? Knowledge & Skills (What skills are needed to achieve the desired results?) By the end of this unit, students will know: DNA bases, RNA bases, and amino acids are conserved and the same in all living things. Some organisms share the same structural plans for a body part which is modified to fit that particular organism’s environment. These structures are known as homologous structures. A population is a group of individuals of the same species which reproduce together. The Hardy-Weinberg Equation can be used to show whether of not a population is evolving. The chance changing of allelic frequencies of a population is genetic drift. Evidence for evolution comes from various fields of science, including genetics, systematics, paleontology, and geography. Organisms best suited to there environment are www.njctl.org By the end of this unit, students will be able to: Use the Hardy-Weinberg Equation to calculate allelic frequencies for the ability to taste PTC. Discuss the importance of genetic variation in a population Support the theory of evolution by natural selection through scientific evidence. Describe the effect of chance occurrences on a population. Define species and speciation. PSI Biology Evolution more likely to survive and reproduce. Assessment (What is acceptable evidence to show desired results (rubrics, exam, etc.)? Attach Copy During the Smart Notebook lesson designed to introduce concepts, students will be continually questioned on these concepts using a combination of class work/homework questions and the SMART Response system. Classwork and Homework questions will be discussed as a class and misconceptions will be addressed by the teacher prior to the formal evaluations listed below. Lab 1: Population Genetics and Evolution Laboratory. Quiz 1: Adaptations & Theories of Evolution Quiz 2: Natural Selection Quiz 3: Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium & Macroevolution Unit Test (What is the sequence of activities, learning experiences, etc, that will lead to desired results (the plan)?
