Background Information: Darwin was amazed by the variation in the characteristics of plants and animals he encountered on his journey. In any habitat, food is limited and the types of foods available may vary. Animals that have variations that enable them to take advantage of available foods will be more likely to survive. We call beneficial inherited variations adaptations. Adaptations are inherited characteristics that increase an organisms chance of survival. Those with the most helpful adaptations will be the most likely to live long enough to pass on their genes to the next generation. This process ensures that beneficial adaptations will continue in future generations, while disadvantageous characteristics will not. Materials scissors, plastic spoons, tweezers, large binder clip, paper clips, rubber bands, toothpicks, dried macaroni, plastic cups, cardboard box lids or trays Procedure: 1. What I Know: Write a sentence or two about what you already know about adaptations. 2. Each student will be given a spoon, tweezers, binder clip, OR pair of scissors. Each student will also get a plastic cup. 3. You are now a very hungry bird. The tool you have selected is your beak. You can only use your beak to pick up food. 4. The cup is your stomach. It must remain upright at all times. You must hold your beak in one hand, and your stomach in your other hand, close to your body. Only food that is placed in the cup by the beak has been eaten. 5. Food items will be placed in your habitat. When the teacher says go, you will have 20 seconds to feed (or until the food runs out). Collect as much food in your stomach as possible until the teacher says stop. 6. When the teacher says stop, students will empty their stomachs and count the contents. Record data in Individual Data Table. We will collect data from the class and you will record it in the Class Data Table. Clean up food items. 7. Prediction: Make a prediction that states which will be the best type of bird beak for each type of food and explain why you think that. (Food types: paper clips, rubber bands, toothpicks, or macaroni), Food TypeBest Bird Beak Type for Food Type Paper clipsRubber BandsToothpicksMacaroni 8. What I Did: Write a short summary of the procedure you used to complete this activity. 9. What I Observed: Complete the individual and class data tables.

Tweezers  4.Scissors  10. What I Learned: Write a summary that describes what you learned from completing this activity. Remember to refer to the learning goal and to include examples from your data. 11. What I Wonder: Pose a how or why question that you may still have concerning the topic of this activity. 12. Questions: Answer the questions posed in complete sentences. Which beak was best adapted to each type of food? Which beak was least adapted to each type of food? Would you change your feeding strategy if you had another opportunity to feed? Explain. What would happen if all of the bird types in this activity flew to an island where no birds had been before and the only food available was macaroni? Which birds would be most successful? Which birds would be least successful? If you came back to this island (from c) in 50 years, what should you expect to see? (What type of birds will live on the island?) How does this lab simulation provide support for the theory of evolution? Class Data: Average the data together for each beak type.
