Document Summary
I want a professor who is knowledgeable about the content, prepared, and respectful to students. I wonder how i will do with this type of learning set up. Biology & evolution: list the three domains into which all living organisms are currently classified. Phenotypic variations exist among individuals and variation is heritable. Those individuals with heritable traits are better suited to the environment will survive: there is variation in trait, differential reproduction, and heredity. It does involve adaption, but not due to a trying or wanting. Genetic variation is due to a random mutation. You either have the genes or you do(cid:374)"t: natural selection gives organisms what they need. It acts on genetic variation in a population. It the genetic variation happens to allow an organism to survive, then it does, and vice versa: natural selection acts for the good of the species.
