Many have excellent evolution exhibits that provide teachers and students with opportunities for learning through direct experience with ideas, evidence, and evolution research.
Biology school teachers in the USA rely on poor to excellent evolution state education standards that guide their teaching practices (sample 15 states, analysis by Moore 2002, based on data by Lerner 2000; see Lerner 2006 for newer statistics).
Conversely, among patients with conventional bacteria almost 25% were treated at home with excellent evolution.
When controlled and focused, that impulse is an excellent driver of evolution, but when not properly grounded in the reality of where you are, it becomes quite dangerous.
For instance, because of its high species diversity, algae is an excellent model for evolution studies.
It is really quite brilliant and makes an excellent story about evolution of an enzyme that adapts to obtain extended mechanical features over those of simpler polymerases.
The argument is based on the generalized theory of evolution which does not only apply to biological evolution but also to cultural evolution (cf. Mesoudi et al. 2006 for an excellent overview on generalized evolution theory; see Strößner forthcoming for a recent discussion).
Biology school teachers in the U.S. rely on poor-to-excellent evolution state education standards that guide their teaching practices (Mead and Mates 2009; for a historical account of these types of assessments, see Moore 2002; Lerner 2000, 2006).
Yi qi is not a direct ancestor of birds, and more particularly has nothing to do with the origins of the mammalian bats, but its wings are an excellent example of convergent evolution.
Ornithopods constitute an excellent case study in evolution because, as the various lineages arise and die out from the latest Triassic to the latest Cretaceous, trends in size, complications and elaborations of teeth and chewing mechanisms, adaptations for quadrupedal posture in some forms, and other changes emerge clearly from their phylogenetic patterns.
