Plant vampires?Here are some pictures of aphids, like the ones we saw in the school garden plants.<br />Aphids are many times plant<span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold; color:

What is a pest?<br />Ask in class.<br /><br /><img style="cursor: -moz-zoom-out;" alt="http://cache.eb.com/eb/image?id=62561&rendTypeId=4" src="http://cache.eb.com/eb/image?id=62561&rendTypeId=4" /><br /><br />Aphids can have several colors. They can be green, red, black, white, etc. What color are the aphids we saw last time?<br /><br /><img alt="The image “http://www.shawnolson.net/media/1_887_5.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors." src="http://www.shawnolson.net/media/1_887_5.jpg" /><br /><br />Ladybugs eat aphids.

Then, what kind of tires would you pick?<br /><br />Now, let's look at these structures, they look very alike, right? Why is that?<br />Count how many bones are there?<br />It is the same number, isn't it? Only the shape and disposition of the bones has changed.<br />Such changes, despite being random, bring at least one advantage to the animals that carry them.<br />For example, if you lived in the ocean would you need legs?<br />Compare the bones of the whale "arm" with those of the rest of animals in this graph.<br /><br />Although they are organized in a basic and very similar way, they are not identical.<br /><img src="http://www.cbu.edu/%7Eseisen/homology.jpg" height="497" width="945" /><br />What looks like the best limb if you want to run?<br />What about flying??<br /><br />When animal structures look very alike but they are not quite the same, these structures are referred as <span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">homologies</span>.<br /><br />Homologous structures are structures that have a similar origin (they come from very similar processes), but still are not quite the same. Evolution refers to the adaptations in these structures and how they bring certain advantages to the animals that change.<br /><br /><p align="center"><img src="http://www.cbu.edu/%7Eseisen/embryos.jpg" height="382" width="449" /></p><br /><br />Look how the babies of different animals develop. Do you think they look quite similar during their very early ages?<br /><br /><br />Now, try to draw these bone structures.<br /><br /><br /><img src="http://www.mun.ca/biology/scarr/139393_forelimb_homology.jpg" />Lazear Science After School Programhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07640431385019086025noreply@blogger.com0
