Education & Reference - 29 August 2006

At the beginning of starting university. Is it most important to socialise and make new friends and go to parties, or just concentrate on your work, and have fun if you can fit it in? Some people say the first year of uni is so easy. I cant imagine us having to pay £3000 a year for an easy ride. Any tips on keeping a good balance between having fun and doing well in the course? I am a slow worker I admit so always spend longer on my projects than most people as am quite a perfectionist. I wish I wasn't so precise, but it's the way I have always been. But I don't want to miss out on the whole uni life style experience because I am too busy doing my work.

Seashore communities, such Bahamas or Cancun have a lot of tourists in the summer. Many businesses depend on serving the needs of the tourists. How does the geography of your area affect the local businesses? How does it affect your own lifestyle?

BIOLOGY 1108 EVOLUTION AND POPULATION GENETICS

Variations on the ability to taste PTC have no obvious survival value, and yet there is ethnic variation in allele frequencies between different groups. For instance, 63% of Arabs are tasters for PTC, whereas 63% of native Americans can't taste it. At least one condition of the Hardy-Weinberg Theory was not met respect to the gene in the world populations.

1. How do you think this ethhnic variation came about?

2. How could this variation in allele frequency be associated with survival potential of the ability to detect a bitter taste?

3. Assuming there was no selective advantage for this traitt, what other factor might account for the ethnic differences?

This is my homework. Its not for a grade for right or wrong but for effort and I am having a little trouble with this. Does anyone know about this stuff if so please help me. Even though the grade is for effort I still want to understand it so I'll do good on the test. Thank you
