Movie to Watch - October 6th and October 10th


Anthropology Assignment for Monday


Watch What Darwin Never Knew on PBS video online.  Start about 40 minutes into the film.  You won’t be able to watch the whole thing, although it’s very interesting.

Here’s the link       http://video.pbs.org/video/1372073556

Please answer these questions as you watch.  Give yourselves the last ten minutes of class to answer them.

Describe an example of modern genetic discovery that "Darwin never knew". 

Describe the problem or mystery that needs explanation.

Tell about the method used to solve the mystery.

Describe the solution

What do scientists call this discovered evolutionary process? 

Why did you choose this example and how does it add to your understanding of evolution? 

You may hand-write, type or verbally report your answers to me after class on Monday.  You may use class time on Monday...in other words it's In-class work.

Please have this ready for me on Tuesday or e-mail to hilary@deckhouseschool.org.
