Patterns of Evolution
OUTLINE
(Chapter 16 & 17)
1.
SCIENCE STANDARDS

S4C5-05: Analyze how patterns in the fossil record, nuclear
chemistry, geology, molecular biology, and geographical
distribution give support to the theory of organic evolution
through natural selection over billions of years and the
resulting present day biodiversity.
