Next, you’ll build a simulation based on what you think will happen because of natural selection. Here are two considerations:

Some individuals with harmful characteristics can still successfully reproduce, but they have an overall lower chance of doing so compared to organisms with neutral or beneficial traits.
Natural selection may affect distribution of traits. It’s possible that harmful traits could eventually disappear from the gene pool.
Don’t worry about precise population numbers. Based on your understanding of natural selection, you’ll be modeling only one scientifically plausible trend that can occur. There are several correct variations of this diagram. You’ll explain the justification for your choices in part E.

Assume that these plants have a life expectancy of about one year, but the rate of reproduction keeps their population consistently around 2,500 organisms. Using the same elements you used in part C, draw simulations for year 5 and year 10. Clearly label each simulation.

(PART C)
You will build a simulation of a population using the same elements as the simulation pictured here and show how the traits in this population change in years 5 and 10.
Start off with 2,500 plants of which 50% have medium-tip leaves, 25% have wide-tip leaves, and 25% have drip-tip leaves. Each circle in your simulation will represent 125 organisms. Calculate how many circles you need for each trait, and then create your simulation. Be sure to include a key that states the color coding for each trait.

Some technological solutions to problems like global warming meet the specific needs and situations of local communities. an example from india involves converting the solid waste from cattle into clean-burning fuel for cooking. this reduces the amount of greenhouse gases, specifically methane and carbon dioxide, released into the environment from wood fires. when evaluating the feasibility of implementing this solution, computer models are used to weigh costs against benefits. what factor is least likely to impact the decision on adopting this technology?
