The document discusses the Tully Monster, an unusual fossil found exclusively in a single location in Illinois. While complete fossils have never been discovered, they are always found in groups. The Tully Monster likely had a complete digestive system and straight intestine. Its small teeth could not retract into its body. Other fossils commonly found alongside it provide clues to its environment. Questions remain about its phylogenetic classification and reasons for extinction.

[wcatx] Adaptive Images in Responsive Web Design
This document discusses adaptive images in responsive web design. It begins by introducing the speaker, Christopher Schmitt, and his credentials. It then explores using the browser's user agent string and feature detection to determine screen resolution and bandwidth rather than browser sniffing. The document discusses using CSS media queries, jQuery, and the picture element to serve adaptive images. It also proposes some workaround techniques like background sizing and SVG to improve responsive images.
Evolution[1]
This document provides an overview of the theory of evolution by natural selection. It explains key concepts such as variation within species, competition for resources, survival and reproduction of individuals with advantageous traits (natural selection), and accumulation of adaptations over generations (evolution). Evidence that is discussed includes homologous structures, vestigial organs, comparisons of DNA and embryological development between species, observation of species change over time, and the fossil record. The theory of evolution is contrasted with ideas like Lamarckism and creationism.
Animalia
The document discusses the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) project which searches outer space for signs of life. It notes that the US spends millions of dollars annually on SETI to search for aliens. It then asks if readers believe in the possibility of aliens and asserts that there may be aliens on other planets in the universe given the vast number of solar systems.

1) Evolution is the scientific theory that organisms are related by descent from common ancestors and that biological traits can change over generations through natural selection or genetic drift.
2) Evidence for evolution comes from multiple scientific disciplines including fossils, biogeography, embryology, and genetics. Comparisons of DNA, protein sequences, and anatomical structures among different species provide overwhelming support for the theory of evolution.
3) Natural selection is the primary mechanism of evolution. It occurs when heritable traits increase an organism's ability to survive and reproduce in its environment. Over generations, organisms best adapted to their environment will survive and pass on their favorable traits.
Please answer the question in the following discussion. this is an a.docx
Please answer the question in the following discussion. this is an anthropology discussion which talks about fossils.
Questions:
Please address both parts of the prompt in your response.
1) Select a fossil related to human evolution and discuss what types of information scientists can learn from this particular fossil. Feel free to use the textbook, websites listed under 'more resources' in Unit 8, or something that you find elsewhere online.
2) As remains become fossilized, what factors influence our knowledge of the fossil record?
After writing your response for both of the questions please respond to the following responses:
Fossils can teach us so much about the past. Firstly, the book states, "Fossils provide an essential historical record for documenting and understanding the biological evolution of surviving and nonsurviving lineages." Next, fossils provide us with information on both geologic and chronological time. Finally, fossils in different geological settings can shed light on past environments and diets. This reveals important
contexts for understanding how past organisms evolved. All these things can be learned from human skeletons from the past, giving us a better understanding of how we came to be as we are today.
Another cool thing that can be done with human fossils is reconstruction through art and science. The books uses a Dimanisi boy to show this process on page 227. It may take up to four months but, through reconstruction we can learn what humans of the past looked like. Strips of clay are used to imitate muscles, more clay is applied like tissue and the exterior surface is molded, and details are made to make the hominid look real.
I chose to look at the Homo naledi fossils. This species shares the modern human genus Homo. I found this particular species and fossil set interesting because it gives us a more detailed window into the evolutionary process linking quadrupeds and bipeds. The Homo naledi has a very human like foot. In fact, the feet are the most human-like part of their skeleton. Scientists believe that the naledi was bipedal but that they also were arboreal. The other thing about the naledi that I found interesting is that it appears that they honored their dead. They hid the bodies of those who died. Perhaps to keep them from being eaten by scavengers? The idea of emotions is what creates empathy for other species, in my opinion and observation. Those species that we can see emotions, get more of our empathy than those who cannot show emotion in a way that we can readily observe. Thinking about the naledi working to preserve or protect the bodies of their loved ones is really eye opening. This is merely a hypothesis at this point though. I wonder if it is possible that they were just trying to easily distance themselves from the dead because the bodies may have made the living a target for predators. It will be interesting to see how the research plays out and what information they can glean fr.
Cell Theory Evolution
The document discusses cell theory and how it relates to ideas of heredity, genetics, and evolution through natural selection. It explains that cell theory is the idea that cells can only come from other cells, and that cells duplicate and sometimes experience random mutations. This basic idea led scientists to theorize that all life on Earth came from one or a few simple original cells, and that the diversity of life today shows how these related cell groups evolved and changed over time. The document also briefly discusses heredity, genetics, and how traits are passed down and can mutate during reproduction.
Web Qest on Fossils _ 4th Grade
The document provides instructions for a 4th grade science lesson on fossils. Students are directed to various websites to read about topics like what paleontology is, how fossils are formed, examples of large prehistoric animals, and what paleontologists study. They are to answer 16 questions by exploring the websites and resources. The questions cover definitions of key terms, the fossilization process, examples of large dinosaur and mammal fossils, and whether the student would want to pursue paleontology.
fossils ppt.pdf
This document discusses different types of fossils and what can be learned from each. It outlines body fossils, which preserve actual body parts, as either unaltered remains like those found in amber or encrustations, or altered remains through processes like permineralization or replacement. Trace fossils are also discussed, including animal tracks, gastroliths found in dinosaur stomachs, and coprolites which are fossilized excrement. Each type of fossil can provide different insights like anatomical details, DNA evidence, or clues about diet.

Why we should clone extinct animals
The document discusses several arguments for and against cloning extinct animals. The key points are:
1) Cloning extinct animals could provide valuable scientific and educational insights, and help undo past human-caused extinctions.
2) However, significant obstacles remain, such as the difficulty of finding intact DNA from animals that died long ago and the challenges of cloning complex organisms.
3) While technology is improving, cloning techniques are still imperfect and cloned animals often have health problems - it may be premature to attempt cloning extinct species.

Evidence of evol2
The document provides evidence from multiple lines of evidence that support the theory of evolution, including the fossil record, comparative anatomy, vestigial structures, convergent evolution, embryological development, and molecular comparisons. It discusses examples for each type of evidence and explains how they all point to life evolving over time from common ancestors.
Classification of organisms
This document discusses the classification of organisms. It begins by noting that over 1 million organisms have been identified but it is estimated that over 30 million still remain undiscovered. It then explains that classification is important for organizing the study of life and exploring relationships between organisms. The key modern classification system divides organisms into 5 kingdoms - Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia - based on features like cell structure, nutrition, and multicellularity. Classification systems help make the immense diversity of life more comprehensible by grouping organisms from the broadest domain to the most specific species level. The hierarchical ordering of taxonomy from kingdom to species was a seminal contribution of Carolus Linnaeus.
Ls 1 Classification.pptx
This document discusses classification of organisms. It explains that scientists group different species into categories called kingdoms, including animals, plants, fungi, and others. Within animals, organisms are classified as either vertebrates or invertebrates, with vertebrates having backbones. Five main vertebrate groups are then described: mammals, fish, reptiles, amphibians, and birds. Key distinguishing features of each group are provided. Invertebrate groups like molluscs, arthropods, and worms are also outlined. Examples are given to identify the odd one out in terms of classification.
HISTORY OF EVOLUTION
Evolution occurs as all living things on Earth are descended from common ancestors. Over billions of years, organisms have diverged into the millions of species alive today through the process of natural selection. Evidence for evolution comes from multiple sources, including fossils that show changes over time, anatomical similarities between related species, and overwhelming genetic evidence from molecular biology. Natural selection is the mechanism driving evolutionary change as it favors heritable traits that increase an organism's chances of surviving and reproducing.
Evolution Presentation
This presentation was created by TIES. A Richard Dawkins organization supporting the promotion of evolution in middle grades science.
Porifera
This document is a personal ad from the perspective of a sponge seeking a mate. It highlights that as a sponge, it is older, more mature, and a low-maintenance partner since it doesn't move or need to eat much. It acknowledges its plain appearance but notes its complex internal structure. It also clarifies that it cannot experience emotions like heartbreak since it lacks tissues, nerves, and organs. The sponge provides its phone number and encourages potential mates who love water and want a settled-down companion.
Rebuking Evolution
1) The document questions the principles of evolution and argues that life is too complex to have originated through natural processes alone.
2) It argues that the first cell could not have formed by chance and notes that the origin of protein and DNA is not explained by evolution.
3) The document also argues against common mechanisms of evolution like natural selection and mutation, noting a lack of transitional fossils between major animal groups.
Cloning Essays
This document discusses cloning and provides arguments both for and against human cloning. It begins by explaining the two main types of cloning: embryo cloning and adult DNA cloning. While cloning could have benefits like helping cure genetic disorders, many argue that human cloning raises ethical issues because it may be considered immoral. The document also notes some proposed therapeutic uses of cloning like generating stem cells for medical research. Overall, the document presents a balanced perspective on the cloning debate.
Comparative Anatomy
The document discusses evidence for evolution from comparative anatomy, focusing on homologous and vestigial structures. It provides 10 examples of vestigial structures in various animals, including wings on flightless birds, hind leg bones in whales, the human tailbone, blind fish eyes, and wisdom teeth in humans. It explains that these structures provide evidence of evolution from common ancestors with structures that had different functions.
Animals-class-and-char.ppt
- Animals are multicellular, heterotrophic organisms that lack cell walls and have tissues that allow movement and response to stimuli. They have complex internal structures and usually bilateral or radial symmetry.
- Organisms are classified based on their physical characteristics and internal structures, grouping those with greater similarities together into taxonomic ranks like kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus and species.
- The scientific name uses binomial nomenclature, specifying both the genus and species of the organism. This provides a standardized classification system.

Animal Cloning Controversy
This document discusses animal cloning and the controversy surrounding it. It begins by defining animal cloning as a process that produces genetically identical offspring through transferring somatic cell nuclei into oocytes. It then notes that when Dolly the sheep was cloned, public interest in cloning grew. The document concludes by stating that cloning has the potential to modify genetic traits in individuals and could be applied to plants as well. Overall, the document provides a brief overview of animal cloning and touches on some of the debate around its applications and implications.
Protists
Organisms in the kingdom protista are some of the most varied life forms on the planet. Some are unicellular, some multicellular. Some are heterotrophs, some are autotrophs.
Bacteria
Bacteria are a very interesting form of life because of their various shapes and reproductive capabilities. In this session, we'll look at their role in the ecosystem and see examples of them. If you have a microscope, consider looking at prepared slides.
Viruses
This covers some of the reproductive charachteristics of viruses. For example viruses are non-living and have to attach to a host to reproduce.

This document provides 5 math activities and 5 formative assessment strategies that can be used in the classroom. The math activities are designed to engage students and help develop basic math skills, and include games like card games and number puzzles. The formative assessments are quick ways to check understanding of all students, such as thumbs up/down, holding up fingers to indicate level of understanding, and anonymous exit interviews. The goal is to integrate these activities before, during and after math lessons.
International boiling point project
Mr. Gary Johnston's document discusses factors that affect the boiling point of water, including temperature, volume of water, elevation, and heating device. It outlines an experiment to test how these factors impact boiling point using different volumes of water. The experiment found that with 300ml of water, the average boiling point was 98.38°C; with 500ml it was 100.5°C; and with 700ml it was 99.25°C. All experiments were conducted at similar room temperatures near 25°C. The document analyzes how volume of water may influence boiling point.
