Indicator 2: Analyze various patterns and products of natural and induced biological change.

Bloom’s Taxonomy Level

Standard

Supporting Skills

(Synthesis)

9-12.L.2.2. Students are able to describe how genetic recombination, mutations, and natural selection lead to adaptations, evolution, extinction, or the emergence of new species.

Examples: behavioral adaptations, environmental pressures, allele variations, bio-diversity

Use comparative anatomy to support evolutionary relationships.

Explain Darwin’s observations of population variation

· Describe how genetic recombination, mutations, and natural selection lead to adaptations, evolution, extinction, or emergence of new species (Directional, stabilizing, disruptive

selection, Genetic drift, Founder effect)

· Use comparative anatomy to support evolutionary relationships
(homologous structures, embryology)

· Predict the impact of genetic changes

in populations (mutation, natural

selection, artificial selection, gene

shuffling)
