There is a fierce competition among individuals within any species,
humans included, to gain access to reproductive privileges. The fittest
a term that signifies the largest, prettiest, and most sexually attractive
members, succeed in predominantly mating and having offspring, while
the less attractive ones often do not. What is the role of such sexual
selection from an evolutionary standpoint?

- A gene will direct the making of polypeptide chains, and polypeptide
chains form proteins. All enzymes are proteins. Therefore, how would
you explain carrying a gene for a trait that does not show up in the
offspring?
- In order for DNA to pass genetic information to the next generation,
DNA must replicate successfully. Mistakes in replication could result in
major problems in heredity.

If these and other such DNA-based technologies become widely used,
how might they change the way evolution proceeds, as compared with
the natural evolutionary mechanisms of the past almost 4 billion years?

Consider the human eye, an exquisitely adapted organ that gives rise to
stereo vision in full color (see, for instance, The Evolution of Primate
Color Vision by Gerald H. Jacobs and Jeremy Nathans, Scientific
American, April 2009 issue, pp. 56-63).
Explain, strictly from within the framework of Darwinian evolution, how
natural selection crafted such an organ.

How do you think we could trace back the evolution of organs within our
body by hundreds of millions of years from our reptile ancestors by
examining coevolution patterns and fitness landscapes?
Discuss, for instance, the missing link, Tiktaalik, that has made
headlines around the world (see Your Inner Fish by Neil Shubin).

mimicry and camouflage.
