Rock Pocket Mouse Evolution
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.
