describe and give examples of how natural and artificial selection change the occurrence of traits in a population over generations.
identify and illustrate changes in DNA and evaluate the significance of these changes; and
analyze and evaluate how natural selection produces change in populations and not in individuals;
analyze and evaluate how the elements of natural selection, including inherited variation, the potential of a population to produce more offspring than can survive, and a finite supply of environmental resources, result in differential reproductive success;
analyze and evaluate how natural selection may lead to speciation; and
