Learning Objectives

At the end of this simulation, you will be able to:
  • Examine the phenomenon of evolution closely.

           a. Analyze the significant contributions of evolutionary processes to the current state of life on Earth

           b. Outline the historical development of the theory of evolution.

           c. Elaborate on the principles of natural selection, genetic drift, and mutation.

           d. Utilize the Hardy-Weinberg principle as a tool to illustrate genetic diversity in the context of evolution.

  • Provide a description and comparative analysis of the structural and functional organization found within the primary life kingdoms.

           a. Elaborate on the evolutionary connections that connect and differentiate the five kingdoms.

           b. Foresee the physiological and anatomical characteristics exhibited by organisms belonging to specific kingdoms and their subgroups.

           c. Clarify the reasons behind the exclusion of viruses from classification within any kingdom.


How do virtual labs work?
