       Lab 1: Biological Life at AU

In our lab today, we examined the variations in organisms of the same species that can occur due to evolution. In specific, we examined specimens that were each members of Chlorophyta, a green algae group. The specific line that was examined was the Volvocine Line. Three members of this line were examined in this experiment in order of their evolutionary complexity; Chlamydomonas, Gonium, and Volvox; characteristics of group of organisms were then recorded in the lab book.


The second portion of this lab was to go outside and examine our group's designated transects. My group received Transect 3, which was located by the bronze AU Eagle statue and referred to as "Tall Bushes". While at our transect, we took photos of the area and recorded all biotic and abiotic features of the area.
