Describe the four evolutionary mechanisms that alter the frequencies of existing genetic variation in natural populations. You need to define each mechanism and describe at least one example of its action in natural populations (e.g., genetic drift in overhunted populations resulting in less genetic diversity).

Describe in detail as great a detail as possible the mechanism by which skeletal muscle cells contract. Start with an action potential arriving at an axon terminal of a motor neuron and end with the completion of a single cross- bridge cycle. Be sure you describe all the events and how the operate, and name all the structures, ions, proteins, molecules involved and explain the role each has. Use proper terminology and explain what is happening at each step. Then...
