Phylogeny
Subject: Biology
Age range: 14-16
Resource type: Lesson (complete)
A concise lesson presentation (20 slides) and associated worksheet that guides students through phylogenetic trees and helps them to be able to interpret these diagrams. The lesson begins by stating three key points about the trees which will form the basis of their understanding. Moving forwards, a series of questions with explained answers are used to show how common ancestors in the past can be used to work out which present day organisms are the most closely related. Students are given lots of opportunities to assess their understanding and check that they can explain.
This lesson has been written for GCSE but could be used as a recap for those students studying at A-level
