I'a. The degrees of freedom is 6
c. 40.06 is the Chi squared value d. No because the chi squared value is considered significant if one looks at the chart which means that it is more likely than not, not just based off of a coincidence. e. All of the green worms were subjected to positive selection pressure because their green color blended in with the grassy environment. The other brighter colors were subjected to negative selection pressure because their colors stood out and made it more likely for them to get picked off. f. The ones that are subjected to negative selection are more likely to have their population thinned in order for them to adapt to the changing environment quicker. The ones with positive selection are less likely to adapt because they are already adapted for their environment. g. Birds tend to either hunt at night or early in the morning, which would make the darker colors less susceptible to getting picked off from a distance by birds. Predatory birds have good vision so the ability of them to see certain worms actually makes a big difference. h. The grounds in which we have the woolly worms is either brown or green so all of the worms that are similar to those colors have a higher chance of surviving compared to the other, brighter colors. In 10 years I'm sure the population of worms will have shifted more to one of those of green and brown colors.

1. Staff Lot-1.581858349 Student Lot-1.657796 Post-lab questions 1. I predicted the diversity of the staff parking lot to be more than that of the student one because they had the possibility of buying more cars than students. The numbers refute my prediction because it sows that the students had more diversity in their lot. 2. The staff parking lot has Ford as the most abundant species, and the student lot has Chevy has the most abundant. This is probably due to the fact that we have a ton of rednecks at our school, and rednecks generally prefer Chevy over Ford. 3. The minimum number is 1.581899349 and the maximum number is 1.649194577. 4. In a mall parking lot the diversity index would be way higher than the school diversity because the sheer amount of cars would most likely have more brands. 5. At a new car dealership the diversity index would be low because dealerships generally only deal in a few brands of cars. This is why the dealership would have lower diversity than the parking lot.

This is the difference from average temperature in 2015. It is only one year apart from the 2014 trend that was followed for at least 14 years and it changed this much in one year. This shows that the world is definitely heating up and it is becoming increasingly rapid. This is a map of drought severity in the United States. It is interesting because it shows which areas are being affected by changing wind currents the most. This was taken in 2010 and it corresponds with the below graph. This is a graph f precipitation in the United States in 2010. It displays the amount of precipitation in the US, and it is interesting because one can see that California received almost zero inches of rain in this year. This is a probability calculation of severe weather on June 14. This is interesting because right around this time it hits its peak from an upward trend and then goes on a downward trend. It shows that near the middle of the year the US is more likely to have weather that causes damage. If it is compared to a temperature map, one can see that the higher the temperature is, the more likely that severe weather occurs. This is the corresponding temperature chart for the same month. It turns out that temperature actually peaks in July, but the trend-line for both temperature and severe weather is the same.
The population is stable because Turlock is growing very slowly.
The population is restrictive. This is probably because people do no want children.
The population of Modesto is pretty stable and it is probably because not too many people have a bunch of kids in Modesto.
The population of New York is constrictive. This is because New York is running out of room and gets expensive very quickly so large families are not ideal.
The population of Portland is constrictive. It is a big city so it seems understandable that not too many kids are born.
The population of England looks to be slowly expanding. It is a fairly small town so there is still room for more people.
The population of Houston is slightly constrictive. This is because Houston is a bigger city and it doesn't have infinite room.
