Virtual museum visit – evolution in the dinosaur and bird clades

Go to:

https://www.biointeractive.org/classroom-resources/interactive-assessment-origin-birds and launch the interactive video. As you are watching the video you will need to complete the assessment questions along the way to proceed. Watch the entire video. Think about the evolutionary steps needed to separate a flying, endothermic avian from scaled, running reptiles. What evidence did they give for this transition?

PAPER:

Using the evidence you gathered from the virtual path,discuss evolution in the dinosaur and bird clades.

You will need to gather 2 outside sources to use, in addition to the AMNH information or HHMI information. These sources must be peer reviewed, scientific journal articles. The sources cannot be older than 20 years (so, 2000-2020 publications), cannot be books or review articles, and cannot be websites.

You will paraphrase information from these sources into your own words to construct a valid argument for your thoughts.

• 3 pages paper, 12-point font, double spaced
• Paper  must be well organized with an introduction, the evidence and arguments, and a conclusion.
• Works cited pages listing all sources used (including HHMI OR HHMI). In-text citations should be used for all information that you paraphrased. Works cited can be listed in APA style; in text citation should use APA Style.
