Today in class Mrs. Stein started off the day by speaking to us a little bit about our newest project on endangered species! More information can be found on the project on page two of the newest biology packet. Then, we all took some notes on Jean Baptiste de Lemark and Charles Darwin.

Jean Baptiste de Lemark

*First to recognize that organisms change

*theory was disproved

3 key assumptions;

-desire to change
-law of use and disuse
-inheritance of acquired characteristics
Charles Darwin
*Created for the theory of evolution
*HMS begle sailed in 1831-galapagos islands
*published origin of species in 1858
Darwin’s observations;
*observed tortoises, iguanas, and finches.
*The islands had different climates and vegetation

*animals were similar, but had noticeable differences.

After taking these, awesome and utterly interesting, notes we continued watching the video on Charles Darwin’s adventure to the Galapagos islands. Just before leaving the room, I fortunately remembered to copy down the homework. This concluded the class period of Tuesday, January 5th.

Our next scribe will be Delia!
