Document Summary
Just a guess on how you think data is gonna look like. Like the chihuahua example we would infer that changes have occurred. Researchers were concerned that the soapberry bugs may have changed their beak lengths due to enviromnetal factors/ Variation results in differences in # of offspring. Process that results in changes in gene frequency in a population. Phentotype-features expressed by genetic makeup (physical appearance due to genes) Even though the environment is acting on the phenotype you get the change of gene frequency over tie. Conclusion: akcknowledgement that humans are members of the animal community- all living soecies share the same basic mechanism of heredity (dna/rna, disease control- bacteria evolving resistance to antibiotics, pests-evolved resistance. Film finches held a secret to the origin of life he shoulda said finches held the secrets of orgin to species diversity. Bill curtis said it is only a theory what he said but its actually considered a hypothesis.
