Bio3.4.1

 * Summarize the hypothesized early atmosphere and experiments that suggest how the first cells may have evolved and how early conditions effected the type of organism that developed.
 * Summarize how fossil evidence informs our understanding of the evolution of species and what can be inferred from this evidence.
 * Generalize what biochemical similarities tell us about evolution.
 * Generalize what shared anatomical structures tell us about evolution.

Bio3.4.2

 * Develop a cause and effect model for the process of natural selection.
 * Illustrate the role of geographic isolation in speciation.

Bio3.4.3

 * Develop a cause and effect model for the role of disease agents in natural selection.
