Objective: I will use a model to collect data about spawning behavior in fish that may have more than one cause, and determine that probability can be used to describe some cause and effect relationships. Standards:  MS-LS1-4. Use argument based on empirical evidence and scientific reasoning to support an explanation for how characteristic animal behaviors and specialized plant structures affect the probability of successful reproduction of animals and plants respectively.  Do Now:  1. EduCanon: Plant and Animal Reproduction 2. StemScopes: Which behavior has more success? Achieve3000:  The Return of the Sturgeon
