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.

One thing could be little to no fossil records.

Migration of species can cause trouble when determining the center of origin for a species. Removal of a species such as hunting or poaching can also cause issues.

Continental drift can affect it or a mass extinction

Morphological processes can change the landscape and physical conditions of an environment erasing evidence of previous conditions a species may have truly arose in.

If it migrates to another area or if the species dies off.

if the fossil records at the origin are destroyed then we don’t know where they were historically

Decayed or destroyed animal remains can cause challenges in determining a species center of origin

If an animal is found in various places and also if it’s been a long enough time where their remains have moved a significant amount
