Fast Plants got ahead of us!

1.  Class agrees upon a trait to select for
      Survey your plants; save only 'top' 15% for trait
      Remove any opened flowers from those 15%

2.  Copy class data for this P generation
     Find average, standard deviation values
     2A: you may group the data into pairs; use midpoint of group in  SD calculation (midpoint of group value - mean)
    

HW:    Finish  POGIL+: Reproductive Isolation
            Read/SOAPS: Zonkeys are my Favorite Animal
            Quiz Thursday: Know/show vocab Origins 1
            Work on Project
