The second attachment below provides the PowerPoint for Dr. Linksvayer's presentation, "The Genetic Basis and Evolution of Social Traits". The antibiotics farm animals activity file presents a discussion activity,"Evolution of Antibiotic Resistance – What Restrictions Should Be Put on the Use of Antibiotics in Farm Animals?"

The last attachment below provides instructions for dissecting a mammalian eye (from Biol 102 Lab Manual). You may want to use this dissection as an introductory activity before the discussion and analysis activity "How could complex eyes have evolved?"
