Whale Form and Function
Students identify similarities and differences in specializations of morphology among a variety of cetaceans and approximate the reasons for these specializations.

Animal Life Histories Derived From Morphology
Learners learn the mechanisms of natural selection by deducing information from the physical appearance of the animal.

The Physiological Tolerance of Two Species of Protozoans
Students examine the differences in pH tolerance between the two species and relate these differences to their respective niches.
