Description
This worksheet has students examine how disease, the founder effect, the bottleneck effect, and gene flow affect biodiversity. Through visual representations, students come to the conclusion that decreasing the population size often leads to decreased biodiversity; and that increased biodiversity can help populations survive disease.

great short review
nice and quick review of microevolution mechanisms with visuals
Excellent Resource
Met expectations

Really provides a simple way to understand the concept. Easy to use visuals without getting lost in the content.
Used this resource for curriculum and lesson development.
This was a great resource. It helped my students engage and kept their interest. I highly recommend it!
Great for visual learners! Easy to use online with Kami.
Great resource for a quick review of the mechanisms of evolution! I used it as a break within our note taking, and it allowed students to connect the content to real world examples.
Great way to allow students to work independently on the different mechanisms for evolution
Some of my students struggled with this, mostly because of their reading level. I like that this clearly defines and models the bottleneck effect and founder effect
