Standards

Standard 1:
Construct an explanation based on evidence that the process of evolution primarily results from four factors:
1. The potential for a species to increase in number
2. Inheritable genetic variation of individuals in a species due to mutations and sexual reproduction
3. Competition for limited resources
4. The proliferation of organisms better suited to the environment

Standard 3:
Construct an explanation based on evidence for how natural selection leads to adaptations within populations

Standard 2:
Apply concepts of statistics and probability to support explanations that organisms with an advantageous heritable trait tend to increase in proportion compared to organisms lacking such traits.

Standard 4:
Use a computer simulation to model the impact of proposed solutions to a complex real-world problem with numerous criteria and constraints on interactions within and between systems relevant to the problem
