2. AGENDA 10/26 QUIZ Over notes #3 Ch 3 Notes #4 Adaptations Video Clips * Grades today

3. Looking at the lab Common mistakes - #4, 8, 11 and 9 Looking at a group, what traits do they have in common? **The group they are in PLUS all the groups above them.

6. QUIZ All items put away at desk NO TALKING during or after quiz until everyone is done. When done with QUIZ – copy: LEARNING TARGET #4 I can explain what adaptations are, give examples, and explain how it relates to diversity of life.

7. Adaptations

8. The enormous diversity of species in the five kingdoms is in part a result of the wide range of adaptations to the many types of environments on earth. Within all the variations of the species, which were a result of mutations in their DNA, the best adapted survive. Through this evolution, a new separate species would develop that kept becoming more different from the old one. In the end, that is why all life started as bacteria and now we have millions of different organisms on earth.

9. The wide range of adaptations to the many types of environments is the reason we have an enormous diversity (differences) of species on earth. Which kingdoms have adaptations? *** ALL living things have adaptations – animals, plants, fungi, protista, and monera

10. ADAPTATION – something that helps an organism survive in its environment. 2 types: 1. STRUCTURAL (physical) – a trait; something you can see on the organism * caused by mutation in DNA 2. BEHAVIORAL – way the organism acts; something it does

11. REMEMBER ALL organisms need to be adapted to their environment in order to survive. Organisms CANNOT CHOOSE an adaptation, it must happen through a mutation or learned behavior.

12. VIDEO 1: List all the changes and adaptations of elephants over time

13. EX of structural adapt. 1. camouflagecamouflage 2. thick fur / shedding 3. spines/ tusks 4. spray smells 5. body part size/shape 6. mimicry tons more!

14. Mimicry allows one animal to look, sound, or act like another animal to fool predators into thinking it is poisonous or dangerous.

16. Teeth in rows pop up CHAMELEON SNAKE

17. All birds have similar characteristics. But many water birds have features that are different from those birds live on land. Long legs are good for wading These wings act as flippers Webbed feet for swimming

18. Adaptation to temperatures Layers of fat keep the seals body warm, and small ears stop heat loss. Polar bears are kept warm by their body fat. Deer have a warm layer of fur.

19. OTHER COOL ADAPTATIONS Polar bears have hollow hair, so they can trap more heat.

20. WARM UP #5 11/18 DOUBLE CREDIT DAY – have 7 minutes to do 1.What is the definition of an adaptation? 2.What were the two types we were talking about? 3.Do all living things have adaptations? (ex, bacteria and fungi?) 4.REVIEW: What kingdom is eukaryote and unicellular? 5.REVIEW: Which of the 7 levels is most diverse? RAISE YOUR HAND WHEN DONE TO GET a SIGNATURE!

21. TODAY 11/18 1.Go over ACT practice questions – fill in our sheet 2.Get quiz back 3.Finish our Ch 3 NOTES #4 from Friday 4.Assignment 3.13 on plant adaptations 5.Get your grades today!

24. ACT PREP QUESTIONS

27. QUIZZES BACK - Put your ACT practice score on your sheet

28. QUIZZES BACK Short answer essay

29. GET OUT CH 3 NOTES #4 camouflage WHAT WERE SOME STRUCTURAL/ PHYSICAL ADAPTATIONS WE TALKED ABOUT?

30. Some crickets and toads can freeze solid, and come back to life after they thaw out. For many reptiles, the sex of their offspring is determined by temperature, and not sex chromosomes.

31. Albatross bird can sleep flying Birds bones are hollow so they are lighter – they also do not have a bladder.

32. Birds do not have a bladder

34. A human adaptation – skin color

35. EX of behavioral adapt. 1. Moving in herds 2. Migration 3. hibernation 4. Playing dead 5. Sitting on rocks to keep warm 6. Digging holes for protection

40. ANNOUNCE- MENT about TUES. I am going to be in school here conducting a learning walk. You will have an assignment for you. 1. It is a 20 point grade to be on the “good behavior list”. 2. The assignment 3.14 is DUE IN CLASS ONLY – no late or makeup 3. The assignment is DOUBLE CREDIT - TWO GRADES 4. Expect a good class report - +5 or -5 on competition

41. REST OF THE HOUR – 3.13 You are going to look at PLANT ADAPTATIONS by reading an article, highlighting the adaptations, then writing them into “leaves”. TURN THIS IN WHEN DONE YOU WILL BE GETTING YOUR GRADES WHILE YOU WORK IF YOU FIND ANYTHING THAT YOU HAVE TO TURN IN, GET IT IN!!!!

42. EXIT TICKET I can describe what adaptations are, give 3 examples of the 2 types, and explain how it relates to diversity of life. 1. Write the answer to the above target to show me that you understand.

43. Human adaptations Sweating to cool off Opposable thumb Language to communicate Skin colors Body shapes and size Layers of fat Clothes / shelter Agriculture Use of oxygen by our cells Malaria/ sickle cell

45. PLANTS HAVE ADAPTATIONS TOO Can you think of any? VIDEO – ditto to fill in

46. PLANT ADAPTATIONS EX: Spines Waxy leaves Deep roots Wide leaves Covered seeds Thick bark Drop leaves Tons more!

47. Even plants have adapted to their habitats. The cactus has fleshy stems that store water. The water provides support for this lily as it has less developed roots to hold it in place. Dandelions seeds are easily dispersed.

48. How did plants first begin? Where did they live? How did they evolve? READING ON CELL TO SEED

49. WARM UP #6 10/9 (7 pts) 1. What is the definition of adaptation? 2. What are the two main types? 3. Give 3 examples of each type. 4. Do you think plants have adaptations? If so, can you name any? * HAVE BOOK OUT TO GET YOUR 5 pts

50. For example, imagine a bird species. One day a bird is born with a beak that is longer than the beak of other birds in the species. The longer beak helps the bird catch more food. Because the bird can catch more food, it is healthier than the other birds, lives longer and breeds more. The bird passes the gene for a longer beak on to its offspring. They also live longer and have more offspring and the gene continues to be inherited generation after generation. Eventually the longer beak can be found in all of the species. This doesn't happen overnight. It takes thousands of years for a mutation to be found in an entire species.
