Extra Credit over the break

Below you will find a link to the extra credit that students are able to complete over the Winter Break.  The specifics are outlined on this worksheet but the basics of the activity are that students need to choose an organism and predict how it would evolve over time based on the environmental changes they predict will occur.  My only request is that students be sure they understand that evolutionary changes are the result of environmental factors and that must be reflected in their prediction.
