2. Warm-up 09/19
Explain what is happening in this picture.

3. Agenda 09/19 Essay Hand-in Lab Write-up Expectations Wooly Worm Lab
Collect Data

4. Lab Write-up Include the following sections:
Title: The title should indicate clearly & concisely the subject and scope of the report. 
Introduction: The introduction should give background information about and state the purpose of the experiment.
Hypothesis: The hypothesis should be a single statement telling the exact thing you are trying to prove in your experiment.  Never write this statement using "first person".
Materials: This section includes a list, written in paragraph form, of all the materials and equipment used.  Be sure to include specific amounts and concentrations of chemicals used. 
Methods: This section includes one or more paragraphs explaining the step-by-step procedures used.  The description should be so thorough that someone else could use your listed materials and procedures to conduct the same experiment & get the same results. 
Results: All data should be collected and organized in a logical order.  Results should be illustrated as charts, tables, graphs, &/or diagrams. All graphs should include a title, the independent variable on the horizontal axis, and the dependent variable on the vertical axis.  All lab questions and answers should be included also with this section. 
Discussion and Conclusion: In this section, you should interpret the collected data and relate it to the restated hypothesis.  Explain the significance of the results. Include any important factors that you think may have actually affected your results.If additional research and experimentation is needed, explain in this section. 

5. POP QUIZ Label paper 1-5 What is your null hypothesis?
How many degrees (df) of freedom will we be using in this lab?
At what value (p) is the null hypothesis supported?
At what value (p) is the null hypothesis rejected?
What does the chi-square value tell you?

6. POP QUIZ What is your null hypothesis?
H0 = If the same number (expected) of each color of wooly worms is collected, than color DOES NOT have an effect on selection.
H1 = If different numbers (than expected) of each color of wooly worms is collected, than color DOES have an effect on selection.
How many degrees (df) of freedom will we be using in this lab?
12 – 1 = 11
At what value (p) is the null hypothesis supported?
.95 to .10 means a 95% to 10% of the time the observed numbers will be different from the expected.
At what value (p) is the null hypothesis rejected?
.05 to .001, means 5% to 0.1% chance factors are likely to cause variance.
What does the chi-square value tell you?
The probability that the value you obtained is either caused by chance or by selection

7. Random vs Selection
If random, should get ~equal amounts of each color.
If not random, colors may will be “selected” in unequal amounts.

8. Warm-up 09/20
Which of the following cannot be present for Natural selection to occur?
There is variation in traits.
There is no differential reproduction.
There is heredity.
There is a trait that increases the probability to survive.
Explain your answer.

9. Lab Questions What was your original null hypothesis.
What was your Chi-square value for this experiment?
How many degrees of freedom were there for this experiment?
What was the probability that your null hypothesis was acceptable?
Did you accept or reject your null hypothesis? What does this mean?
Which color worm had the best chance of being eaten?
Which color worm had the best chance of survival?
What will happen to the gene frequencies for the various colors of worms?
What determines which genes will be an advantage and which ones will be a disadvantage?
How does this experiment illustrate Darwin's theory of Natural Selection?
