Natural Selection Simulation Group 6
Names:

Group Number:

Factors to maintain: Make your environment the ARTIC and leave white as the recessive gene. Factors to change: Add the tail mutation. Explore how the three selection factors (predators, food, none) influence the rabbit population

//Answer the following questions.// //1) How will you collect your data from this simulation to explore the influence of the selection factors on the mutation?//

//2)Collect data on the influence of the tail mutation when selection factor NONE was chosen. Insert your collected data as a picture.//

//3) Did the selection factor NONE appear to have an influence on the rabbit population? Why or why not?//

//4)Collect data on the influence of the tail mutation when selection factor FOOD was chosen. Insert your collected data as a picture.//

//5) Did the selection factor FOOD appear to have an influence on// //the rabbit population////? Why or why not?//

//6) Collect data on the influence of the tail mutation when selection factor WOLVES was chosen. Insert your collected data as a picture.//

//7) Did the selection factor WOLVES appear to have an influence on// //the rabbit population////? Why or why not?//

//8) For this simulation, which selection factor most influenced the natural selection of the tail mutation? Justify your respnse.//
