Petrified fossil An example would be replacing a cytosine with a thiamine An inherited characteristic that increases the chance of survival Probable outcome to a scientific problem that can be tested Individuals better suited to their environment survive and reproduce most successfully A well-supported, testable explanation of phenomena observed in the natural world A small population of 250 Saint Lucian parrots lives in the small rain forests of the Caribbean island of Saint Lucia. The parrots never leave the island, and parrots from neighboring islands do not come to Saint Lucia. The parrots live in three rain forest areas, but parrots from all the regions freely mate with parrots from other regions. The appearance and characteristics of the parrots have remained the same for generations without variation. Analyze the description of Saint Lucian parrots and identify the conditions and violations of the Hardy-Weinberg rinciple that apply to the parrot population.
