Cladograms, Gel Electrophoresis & Evolutionary Relationships Practice Packet.
This focused review sheet supports students preparing for the Relationships & Biodiversity State Lab component of the NYS Living Environment Regents exam.
Students revisit key concepts related to evolutionary relationships, biodiversity, molecular evidence, gel electrophoresis, cladograms, and comparative analysis. Structured Regents-style questions provide targeted practice interpreting data and constructing clear short-answer responses for Part D of the exam.
This resource is designed as a concise reinforcement tool—not a full lesson replacement.
Review of evolutionary relationships and biodiversity concepts
Practice analyzing molecular and structural evidence
Regents-style short-answer and data interpretation questions
Opportunities to strengthen constructed responses
Ready-to-print format for flexible classroom use
Content reflects common Regents question patterns and classroom-tested instructional design to ensure alignment with exam expectations.
Targeted Regents review sessions
Small-group remediation
Independent exam preparation
Quick refresher prior to assessment
This free Boot Camp sheet is part of the NYS Living Environment Regents Review support line.
HS-LS4-1:Communicate scientific information that common ancestry and biological evolution are supported by multiple lines of evidence.
HS-LS4-2:Construct an explanation based on evidence that evolution results from multiple mechanisms.
HS-LS4-5:Evaluate evidence supporting claims that changes in environmental conditions may result in increases or decreases in species numbers.
MS-LS4-2:Apply scientific ideas to construct an explanation for the anatomical similarities and differences among modern organisms and between modern and fossil organisms.
Analyzing and interpreting data
Developing and using models
Constructing explanations and designing solutions
Patterns
Cause and effect
