BEGINNING OF NEW UNIT
TODAY WE STARTED ON A NEW UNIT. FOR HOMEWORK WE WERE SUPPOSED TO READ CHAPTERS 1, 2, AND 11 ON YOUR INNER FISH BUT I ACCIDENTLY READ CHAPTERS 1,2 ON SURVIVAL OF THE SICKEST BEFORE I REALIZED I WAS READING THE WRONG BOOK. MR. QUICK PLEASE EMPHASIZE INNER FISH NEXT TIME THE BOOKS LOOK THE SAME. The chapters essentially talked about the Tiktaliik and how it proved evolution because it was a transitional fossil that had characteristics of a fish and an amphibian which shows how certain species evolved to get onto land. We also learned how animals are related to each other through a common ancestor through their homologous structures. The appearance of two bones on limbs are common through most animals because although they all look completely different, they came from the same ancestor probably millions upon millions of years ago.
