6. Explain briefly, in your own words, why an isolated population of individuals may exhibit a

Greater prevalence of albinism or red hair (those are examples; you do not have to incorporate

Them specifically in your answer).

7.

In your own words, describe how photosynthesis the basis for survival of all complex lifeforms

On earth.
