Remember! Evolution is a genetic change in a population.

Remember! Evolution is a genetic change in a population. In order for that genetic change to occur, there has to be some genetic variation within the population. Can we see evolution occurring in a population just by observing the phenotypes?. Evolution & Selection of Traits in Populations.

CIAO Plots

CIAO Plots. George Rush Modified by Dr. T. Motivation. Coevolution is hard to visualize & analyze in traditional ways, such as eval -fitness plots; CIAO plots are a way to accomplish this. This is also fair game for Exam 3 & Final Exam. What Are CIAO Plots?.

Stages of Natural Selection

Stages of Natural Selection. Variation exists in the phenotypes of a population. There are either brown or yellow shelled snails There is a selective pressure. A predator arrives in the habitat Phenotypes with a higher fitness level pass on genes.
