Document Summary
Evolutionary theory is central to biology: a scientific theory: Is a measure of how far a set of numbers is spread out: when zero, means all values are the same, gives a measure of how the data are distributed around the mean.

Test material may include blood samples or ground up samples of organisms. The samples are loaded into separate wells on the gel, and the proteins in each sample migrate toward the positive electrode according to their charge and size. The gel is stained with a biochemical agent to see how far the proteins have migrated. The frequency of allele 1 is: (4x2) + 2 = 10, divided by 16 alleles total in the population = 5/8. The frequency of allele 2 is: (2x2) + 2 = 6, divided by.
