Explain physical anthro in detail.   show
🗑
Explain archaeology in detail.   show
🗑
What is CRM?   show
🗑

🗑
What evidence do we have of evolution?   show
🗑
show Mutation, genetic drift, gene flow, and natural selection.  
🗑
What is mutation?   show
🗑
What is genetic drift?   show
🗑
show The introduction of new alleles from other populations. A cause of gene flow in humans is immigration.  
🗑
show For natural selection to occur there must be variation within the population. There must be limited resources, which would cause competition. There is usually selective pressure from an outside source, such as the environment.  
🗑
show Mutations are changes in alleles over time, sometimes caused by selective pressure from the environment, that help preserve the species.  
🗑
show Some that cause diseases (sickle cell) remain because they protect the person from other diseases (malaria). The carrier survives and reproduces, creating more carriers.  
🗑
How are resistant genes passed down through generations? (Example of moths and anti-biotics.)   show
🗑
