Figure 2 illustrates the prototype example for evolutionary branching that forms the basis of the model of competitive speciation by Dieckmann and Doebeli (1999).
Thus, to illustrate the evolutionary perspective, in this paper we give a variety of examples for which evolutionary explanations are known or hypothesized.
Teaching students about cancer from an evolutionary perspective would not only enhance the students' understanding of cancer, but would provide highly relevant examples for why evolutionary biology is so important.
All APC subunits and activators were found, and they contained the predicted conserved domains, providing one of many examples for the evolutionary conservation of the eukaryotic cell-cycle machinery [ 29, 30].
Yet this science is surprisingly missing from most science curricula, state science educational standards, and national science educational standards at almost any educational level except for scant examples of evolutionary change in bacteria (e.g., inefficient use of antibiotics) and RNA viruses (e.g., the need for new seasonal influenza vaccine every year).
We are unaware, for example, of evolutionary or functional comparisons among NIRVs.
For example, the evolutionary time for 4 vertebrate species to develop to humans, rhesus to humans, and chimpanzee to humans represents approximately >100, 70, and 5 million years, respectively.
In this view, for example, evolutionary strategy dictates our preferences for kin over strangers, and makes us more likely to display altruism toward people we can see first-hand.
