PPT-Building Beasts

Objective To show your understanding of adaptations and how they drive evolution Background Adaptations are structures or behaviors by which a species or individual improves its ability to survive in its environment For example bats have large ears and aerodynamically shaped noses to allow their highpitched screeches to reach their ears easily Zebras stripes help them to confuse predators when travelling in large groups Plants that live in dry environments have a thick layer called a cuticle to help them to retain water In fact nearly everything about an organism is an adaptation of one kind or another Think of a trait that an animal has and then think of how that trait helps it to survive and reproduce in its environment Different adaptations are helpful for different environments the white peppered moth was able to survive easily against the white bark of the tree however after the Industrial Revolution the white coloration of the moth made it more easily seen by predators when against the sootcovered trunks of the trees and their population began to decline.

Almost every early culture once had a system of symbols that was eventually replaced with a spoken and then written language. In Chinese culture, the evolution of symbols and their meanings took a slightly different and unique path. Rather than the visual symbols being replaced by the written language, in China, the symbols themselves evolved into the written language. In SYMBOLS AND REBUSES IN CHINESE ART, author Fang Jing Pei catalogs the hundreds of symbols in Chinese artistry, and describes each of their meanings. (A rebus is a pictorial representation of a word or syllable.) He explains, for instance, why a depiction of a bat can mean happiness, and why some beautiful images, such as sparrows and pears, are rarely seen. Using myths, folklore, history, and religion to explore the significance of each symbol, Fang presents a comprehensive understanding of the important role symbolism has played, and continues to play, in Chinese culture.An A-to-Z catalog of the hundreds of symbols represented in the Chinese arts, with images and text to explore their meanings.Includes more than 200 color and black-and-white images of ceramics, porcelains, carvings, lacquers, embroidery, paintings, and wood blocks depicting the various symbols.
