The population genetics power point covers the mechanisms of how species evolve over time. It begins with an overview of Hardy-Weinberg and then delves into genetic flow, genetic drift, bottleneck effect, founder's effect, the types of selection, the types of isolation and the types of speciation. The power point is filled with examples of the mechanisms and pictures, graphs and charts to help emphasize the concepts. The concepts are heavy within population genetics so I would advise to chunk the information up into segments instead of teaching them all the way through in one day.

This is an editable lab. Students will be given ten objects that they need to measure mass and volume for in order to calculate density. I based my lab from a set of ten density cubes that can be purchased from any physical science catalog. You can also find a collection of objects to use as long as you calculate the densities. I also created a file that has six density tables on it to reduce the number of copies needed. This lab only requires a scale, digital or manual, a beaker or graduated cylinder and ten objects of various materials. * You could also include the same materials for enrichment and understanding.
