    We study anthropology to learn about natural selection and become sleepy.

      Good code and good decode. Well done to both of you.

      Here is my decode for reference:

      DNA: GCTAATTACCACGGCTTGAACGCAAGCCCCAGTGGACTCATCCGCGCGCT
      RNA: CGAUUAAUGGUGCCGAACUUGCGUUCGGGGUCACCUGAGUAGGCGCGCGA
      Codons: AUG GUG CCG AAC UUG CGU UCG GGG UCA CCU GAG UAG
      (start) We study anthropology to learn about natural selection and become sleepy. (stop)

      Narongtham, you will need to decode a new code. This one is already taken by Kevin.

Homology and Analogy

Image
1. a. Cats and humans are both mammals. Cats have evolved to be hunters in the wild while humans have evolved to be omnivorous and hyper intelligent. This being said, the common ancestor between humans and cats is closer than that of many other animals.  Among their similarities is the distinct bone structure of cat paws and human hands. b. They both have a joint structure and individual digits. The primary difference between them is that humans have thumbs, allowing them to grab onto things. Cats do not have this ability but they do have claws that help them hunt. These two species evolved separately from each other, developing traits that gave them distinct advantages in the wild. Cats became agile and stealthy while humans began to walk on two feet and make usable tools with their thumbs. c. The common ancestor between cats and humans was likely a small mammal with paw-like appendages. We know that this common ancestor had these is because humans and cats both have

Human Variation & Race

1.  Cold climates pose a threat to humans by presenting the possibility of frostbite among other survival risks. 2. Goosebumps that raise the hair on the skin in order to retain warmth are an example of a short-term adaptation to the cold. Gaining weight to stay warm is an example of a facultative adaptation. Facial hair is an example of a developmental adaptation to retain warmth. Clothing is an example of a cultural adaptation. 3. The benefit of studying human variation from this perspective gives an unbiased and scientific reasoning behind the traits that various humans around the world exhibit. These findings can help us better figure out the nature of human adaptation. This information could be used in developing products that can help to enhance or act in lieu of natural human adaptations. 4. Adaptations happen often within a population as a whole. This makes it easy to understand race and its geographical relationship. Understanding environmental influences
