We know evolution has occurred because of the evidence that has been gathered. Much of this evidence is subject to interpretation by different scientists because the span of a human life makes it difficult for humans to directly observe evolution occurring. Because of this, many people do not accept these concepts as part of the natural process. However, almost all scientists today accept the theory of evolution by natural selection as the driving force behind the diversity of organisms on earth today.
Each group will be creating a single presentation slide describing a different evidence for evolution. When completed, ALL members of the group will present their information to the class.
1. Explain how the evidence supports the theory of evolution. Explain why we mention this observation of natural phenomena while talking about evolution. What makes us more convinced of the process of evolution because of this?
2. Relate Picture to your topic.
* You will present your slide to the class. This will be the only time this material is covered, so don’t let your classmates down.
