About this activity

This activity is designed for biology students in the 9th or 10th grade. This game pertains to the topic of evolution, which is part of the biology curriculum. The questions within this game are for the Virginia Biology SOL. Students should know about Lamarck, Charles Darwin, the Inheritance of acquired Traits theory, and other topics relating to evolution. Once students become an expert at this game, they should try to find other games that involve more of a higher thinking level. The material included was borrowed from another Educaplay user. Thank you for that.
