a. There were 6 degrees of freedom in this lab.
b.N/A c.Chi-square value is 79.23 d. No it was not all chance it was significant not random. e. The green and dark worms were subject to positive selection and the bright colorful worms were subject to negative selection. f. The worms that are a part of positive selection will repopulate at a faster rate potentially eliminating the negative selection species. g. Birds are a little ways from the ground so their eye sight has to be pretty good to be able to spot small things such as wooly worms. With wooly worms blending into their habitat, it makes them less likely to be spotted by predator birds especially if feeding at night. Also, the skinnier worms would have a better chance compared to the thick worms. h. If the environment was unchanged based on our results the think green worms, both light and dark, would go extinct faster. With them going extinct more boogie colored worms would survive due to positive selectivity, and there for be a majority of the wooly worm population.

1. Identify the parking lot that was the most diverse. Based on your observations during the lab, explain why your prediction in question #1 of the prelab was supported or not supported. * The parking lot that is most diverse is the student parking lot, because there was more variety of color. 2. List the single most abundant species in each set of data, and write a plausible explanation to explain why these are the most abundant species. * The most abundant species in the teacher's parking lot is the grey species. The white and grey species were tied for most abundant in the student parking lot, likely because they are neutral colors and easier to take care of. 3. Determine the maximum and minimum values for the Shannon Diversity Index in the parking lot you surveyed. 4. If you conducted this lab in a shopping mall parking lot, predict whether the Shannon Diversity Index would be high or low, and how it would compare to the school parking lots. * The highest Shannon Diversity index is 1.727173038 for the student parking lot and the minimum Diversity index is for the staff parking lot at 1.70504673. 5. If you conducted this lab at a new car dealership, predict whether the Shannon Diversity Index would be high or low, and how it would compare to the school parking lots. * The diversity would likely be less, because often dealerships have several different cars in all the same colors making new dealerships not have much diversity in color.
Turlock's population is stable to declining slowly. I think a lot of people move here for job opportunities and have kids, but not many people want to retire in Turlock.
The city of Los Angeles has a slowly expanding population with a boom between 15 and 44 years old. I believe this is because of the large amounts of job opportunities in a nice area with a lot of activity.
Chico has a steady population with an extreme boom from ages 19-29. This is because it is a college town, and that is the ages which people often go to college.
San Luis Obispo has a steady population with a boom between ages 19-29. This is a college town, and people go to college between these ages most often.
St. Paul has a steady population with a boom between ages 15-34 and declines at age 65.
The population in New York City is less kids and more working class aged people. There is a lot of work opportunity here, but not a good place to retire with how busy and chaotic it is which is shown by the drop off in the older population.
The population in Houston is scattered with a majority being middle-aged men and older women. There is a large amount of children as well showing families are common here.
