PRIMATE CLASSIFICATION: Evolution, Cladograms,
Students transfer examples (names) of primates from their location in an outline hierarchy of primate groups into a set of nested boxes reflecting that same hierarchy. A cladogram can then be drawn illustrating how these groups are...
Curated OER
Primate Evolution
In this evolution activity, students review 9 terms associated with the evolution of primates. Students place 6 terms into a crossword puzzle and 3 terms into fill in the blank statements.

From Restriction Maps to Cladograms
Biology aces analyze restriction maps to determine the relationships among different primate species and then complete a cladogram. Preface this lesson with an explanation of how restriction enzymes are used to create the DNA maps....
Curated OER
Molecular Biology and Primate Phylogenics
By counting differences in amino acids, biology stars examine the relationships between different primates. With information gleaned, they map out a phylogenic tree and discover common ancestry. You will need to create printable versions...
Curated OER
Molecular Biology and Primate Phylogenetics
Pairs of high school biologists compare amino acid differences in the beta hemoglobin of different primates. They use the information collected to construct a phylogenic tree. Follow-up discussion questions are provided. This is a...
Curated OER
Primate Evolution
For this primate evolution worksheet, students will review the structures and functions that are characteristic of primates. Students will identify the differences between Old World monkeys, New World monkeys, and prosimians. This...
Curated OER
Primate Evolution
In this primate evolution worksheet, students will compare 3 characteristics that all primates share. Then students will compare the traits of current primates to early man by completing 5 short answer questions.
Curated OER
Primate Evolution
For this primate evolution worksheet, students use an idea map showing how primates have evolved into the different groups to complete 1 true or false and 2 short answer questions.
Curated OER
Primate Classification 2006
Students examine groups of hierarchy and see how primates are categorized. In this primate classification lesson students view video and slides then examine the taxonomy of primates.
Curated OER
Apes To Man
Students study primates and their evolution history. In this role play lesson students view a video on evolution then demonstrate how primates walked and other observations they noticed in the film.
Curated OER
Ape Genius
Students watch a video and discuss the research on the intelligence of apes. In this primate lesson plan, students view a NOVA video about ape intelligence. They work in groups to take notes on the observations and conclusions of...
