Rock Pocket Mouse Evolution
by Brad Charles
This is an adaptation of an HHMI BioInteractive activity. Students use graphics of scenes from two different areas where Rock Pocket Mice are evolving due to a change in environmental conditions (ie. lava flow). Students interpret the scene sequence from evidence in the illustrations. Students then use the data to figure out how the mice evolved.
