How the Peppered Moth Changed Colour

Produced by Nelson Thornes, this resource helps students look at aspects of how science works. In this activity students are presented with raw data from a natural selection simulation and need to record it in a suitable format, draw an appropriate graph and make a conclusion linked to their understanding of the concepts of natural selection and evolution. They also need to suggest a way of making the results more reliable.

HEALTH and SAFETY
Any use of a resource that includes a practical activity must include a risk assessment. Please note that collections may contain ARCHIVE resources, which were developed at a much earlier date. Since that time there have been significant changes in the rules and guidance affecting laboratory practical work. Further information is provided in our Health and Safety guidance.
