WU: Evolution and Fossils 1. What is evolution? 2. Fossils and evolution: What does one have to do with the other?

Evolution and Fossils

What is evolution? Some student responses: Changing over time Changes Adapt to new environment Ancient time change process among humans/animals Change physically or genetically over a period of time How organisms have modified to be suitable for environment When millions of years pass and species of animals evolve to something more complex

Fossils and evolution: What does one have to do with the other Fossils and evolution: What does one have to do with the other? Some student responses: Deep in ground for years Compare past and todays animals How things changed Compare old to new Shows how and when things changed Trace ancestors Show what has changed over time and the relationship between species Record of how animals look Fossils of a species can change due to environmental struggles and we can see how it changed

Archaeopteryx (meaning "ancient wing") is a very early prehistoric bird

Pangea is … the very large area of land that existed as the only land on Earth about 300-225 million years ago, before it broke apart to form two large land masses. These large land masses later broke apart to form the modern continents.

Titanoboa!!!!! Use at least 5 complete sentences to address the following statement: Describe and explain what role the discovery of Titanoboa plays in the relationship between fossils and evolution now and in the future.
