Central Question:What do different evolutionary paths look like and how can we map them? Guiding Thought Question: Explain one of the things that will complicate determining a specie's Center of Origin. Center of Origins: Geographic location from which a certain species expanded from. Today's Learning Objective: Students will work through a mapping activity to learn about the diffusion of animals and how to trace their evolutionary paths from a common center. |

location and adaptations because they can move around a lot and develop different adaptations which makes it hard to find them

Human activity can complicate things because humans can move species to another area accidentally or intentionally.

One thing that would complicate determining a specie's center of origin is if it is not similar to any animals that are alive today. It would also be hard if the animal was extinct so we don't have many fossils to help us.
