In
this
lesson
students
working
in

schemes
vary
arbitrarily.
They
then
see
how
living
organisms
are
classified,
and
note
how
these
groupings
are
natural,
nearly
always
reflecting
the
same
ancestral
relationships
in
nested
hierarchies,
regardless
of
the
deeper
criteria.
Such

natural
selection
illustrates
the
process

science,
and
to
deepen
teachers'
understanding
of
the
theory,
evidence
and
