- L.O. 1 - The student is able to convert a data set from a table of numbers that reflect change in the genetic makeup of a population over time to apply mathematical methods and conceptual understandings to investigate the cause and effect of this change.
- L.O.2 - The student is able to evaluate evidence provided by data to qualitatively and quantitatively investigate the role of natural selection in evolution.
- L.O.3 - The student is able to apply mathematical methods to data from a real or simulated population to redict what will happen to the population in the future.
