Herbivores, carnivores and constrictor jaws

It sounds like a mouthful because it is (and don’t forget omnivores)

Diet, dentition and digestion in animals are the focus of Herbivores, carnivores and constrictor jaws (And, don’t forget omnivores).

Examining teeth is an effective method of understanding the dietary requirements of animals. Students will meet a Discovery Centre animal and examine a variety of animal skulls in a session that unravels the importance of diet; what animals eat, how they eat, and the discoveries of what comes out the other end!

On completion of the student trail students can write up a summary report that can be assessed for the School Assessed Coursework (SAC) for Outcome 2 (practical activity) VCE Biology Unit 1.
