Essential Science for Teachers: Life Science

Variation, Adaptation, and Natural Selection Bottle Biology

Bottle Biology Spotlight

The Bottle system that has been designed to accompany Session 5 – Variation, Adaptation, and Natural Selection – and Session 6 – Evolution and the Tree of Life – is called the “Field Population System.” In this system, three types of plants are grown together, and subjected to a voracious herbivore. Does one of these plant populations have an advantage over the others? Check out Bottle Biology Spotlights to track the progress of our very own Essential Science for Teachers systems.
