Powerpoint Slides: In this part of the Postlab assignment, you continue to build your final presentation for the semester-long Wolbachia project.

• Your final presentation for this course will include these slides that cover this information.
• Refer to the Powerpoint "Style Guide" to earn a better grade!

Slide 1: Create a slide that contains your drawings of your insect.

• On the drawing(s) indicate and label the specific structures and features that you used in the key to help you identify the Order of your insect.
• For example, if you identified your insect in Order Lepidoptera, you should communicate on the slide that the insect has two pairs of fully-developed wings and long, coiled, tube-like mouthparts. These are the structures that are necessary to identify the insect as belonging to this Order using the key.
• DO NOT write out entire couplets from the key!
• Labels can be hand-written or typed in a textbox in PowerPoint: they MUST be easy-to-read.
• Images should be clear and without distortion and should fill most of the slide area.

Slide 2: Create a slide that presents the following information about your insect Order using these resources that provide reliable information about insects: UF Featured Creatures (contains peer-reviewed information) and/or Encyclopedia of Life (contains peer-reviewed information)

• the habitat of insects in the Order
• the diet of insects in the Order
• the life cycle of insects in the Order
• at least one unique trait of insects in the Order

Slide 3: Insert a completed table (similar/identical to the one from step #9 in Part six on page 67) that presents information about Wolbachia infection in your insect Order:

• You must include information from two peer-reviewed scholarly journal articles for your insect's Order and information from local insects collected by former BIOL 1107L students. The local information is available again here
• Be sure to include information about prevalence, reproductive phenotype, location, climate, and habitat when applicable from all three sources.

Slide 4: Present your prediction about Wolbachia infection in your insect sample, and state your rationale for this prediction.

• You should have written this prediction in step #10 on page 67.
• You should state a prediction regarding the presence or absence of Wolbachia in your insect.
• Remember that a prediction includes a method of testing AND a predicted outcome.
• After your prediction, you should include the rationale for your prediction.
• You should explain why you made the prediction that you did based upon the information about prevalence in the two peer-reviewed articles AND information about insects previously collected here by BIOL 1107L students.

Slide 5: You need to provide references for your work in the proper format

• The PowerPoint Style Guide provides directions for how to do this, and these directions are also detailed in for final slide under Exercise 2 Postlab Instructions
