SHARK LAB

Today we did a biological key lab. Classification is a way to separate large groups of closely related organisms into smaller subgroups. The key to making a biological key is listing specific characteristics, such as structure and behavior, in a way the organism can be identified.

In this lab we...

(a) used key to identify 14 shark families

(b) study how to make a key

(c) constructs our own key for the fish and leaves(needles)
