Reading essays about deep-sea expeditions open this instructional activity on crustacean vision. Marine biology explorers study the compound eye and then complete a worksheet in response to all they have discovered. Although the instructional activity doesn't offer an innovative approach, the content is fascinating and a support to your lessons on arthropods, adaptation, or marine organisms.
