Results from our forumRe: Re:... be judged by different means, morphological is basically a matter of "this one looks different to that one", phylogenetical is genetic variance. Two individuals may look different but be genetically similar or the other way around. I'm not sure if data on such changes even exists yet, ...

Natural selection is proven wrong... of disappearing traits when favorable environmental factors return. This could indicate that the DNA contains pre-programed material which allows variance in traits --or adaptation to environment. That is some traits may lie dormant in genetic material depending on environmental conditions. Then ...

Re: Uses for the PCR technique?... skin….plus they don’t do forensic testing like that anymore due to the low success rate :P For Forensic, Using DNA sequencing and Microsatellite Variance tests it is possible to determine if two skin samples at different crime scenes belong to the same person and their DNA can be tested against ...

Re: Does anything affect absorption spectrum of chlorophyll?... has both chlorophyll a and b peaking at totally different wavelengths than the other plants, so I just thought it would be cool to talk about the variance in chlorophyll molecules because of things becoming ionized, or bonding, or who knows what. I thought the results would allow for a cool topic ...

Re: Role of animals in the ecosystem... source like this without farming many different types of nuts and cereals. -The dramatic drop would leave populations with a much smaller genetic variance which would leave them more vulnerable to virus and bacterial outbreaks. So many factors would come into this that i don't think even the most ...
