Tinbergen's questions sorting activity - crossing road - phylogeny vs. trait function
Completion requirements
Students sort different causal explanations for a behavior into Tinbergen's four questions.
This activity is about the example of crossing a street when the traffic light turns green. This activity only concerns causes in phylogeny and students have to differentiate between the appearance of a trait in phylogeny and the trait's function.
