Teacher Notes

A. Prior to the lesson:

1. Arrange students into groups. Each group needs at least ONE person who has a mobile device.

2. If their phone camera doesn't automatically detect and decode QR codes, ask students to

3. Print out the QR codes.

4. Cut them out and place them around your class / school.

B. The lesson:

1. Give each group a clipboard and a piece of paper so they can write down the decoded questions and their answers to them.

2. Explain to the students that the codes are hidden around the school. Each team will get ONE point for each question they correctly decode and copy down onto their sheet, and a further TWO points if they can then provide the correct answer and write this down underneath the question.

3. Away they go! The winner is the first team to return with the most correct answers in the time available. This could be within a lesson, or during a lunchbreak, or even over several days!

C. TIPS / OTHER IDEAS

4. A detailed case study in how to set up a successful QR Scavenger Hunt using this tool can be found here.

Questions / Answers (teacher reference)

Question

Answer

1. 1. What are the three types of distribution for selection for evolution?Stabilizing, Directional, Disruptive
2. 2. What is genetic drift? The tendency for the genetic frequencies to change over time due to random chance.
3. 3. Explain the bottleneck effect.A disaster randomly wipes out a large chunk of a species, and only a random few survive, and future descendants are limited to only have their genetics based on survivors.
4. 4. Speciation is what? Formation of a new species
5. 5. Breathing, reflexes, are examples of what type of learning? Innate
6. 6. Helping others without immediate reward for self is an example of what biological term? Altruism
7. 7.Ants, Bees, Mole rats are all examples of what kind of social animal? Eusocial
8. 8. Allopatric speciation is what? Speciation based on differenes in geography.
9. 9. Name two examples and explain of sympatric speciation? Explain here
10. 10. Pre-Zygotic Barriers are what, name two examples.
11. 11. Post-Zygotic barriers are what, name two example.
12. 12. Adapatations that might not help survival, but increases one's reproductive fitness (male peacock feathers), are examples of Sexual Selection
13. 13. As climate change causes a general increase in temperature, what would we expect to happen to the ranges of plants and animals?They would have to shift towards the poles, or disappear.
14. 14. The most frequent cause of mass extinction is what? Quick climate change, brought about by some event.
15. 15. Mass Extinctions can be bad for many species, but it also does what? Open's up niches, leads to adaptive radiation.
16. 16. Mammals diversifying after the K-T extinction is an example of divergent evolution or adaptavie radiation.
17. 17. Animals live in groups because benefits outweight costs
18. 18. H-W problem, If I have a population of 100 monkeys, with brown fur being dominant to white fur, what are the allele and genotype frequencies if 12 of them have white fur. Solve
