All terms must be included. You may create this concept map however you like. You may use pen and paper or you may choose to use a computer program/digital tool. Another option would be to use index cards to write the terms on them and then organize them on a flat surface and take a picture to submit when complete. This could be done with “sticky notes” on a wall too. There are lots of terms and you must consider how they will be organized together. Notice how, in the example above, the categories or ‘groupings’ that were not official scientific classifications (for example, simple invertebrates, worm-like invertebrates, complex invertebrates, joint-legged invertebrates, invertebrates, and vertebrates) do not have kingdom, phylum, or class in front of them. They are just classifications that scientists use to help them understand the living world. In your concept map, make…arrow_forward
