Tracing Life's Roots
In this Digital Exploration, you will act as zoologists to investigate common ancestry and will obtain information about four different species to determine which two animal species are the most closely related. You will compare embryotic development stages, anatomical evidence and genetic evidence to support your conclusion. Although species may look very similar, you will find that physical appearance doesn’t always signify close relation between animals. Finally, you will examine the diverse range of careers in zoology.
