heh

how about you get the ball rolling ?

I used the out of africa hypothesis, I used mitochondrial DNA evidence, transitional fossils ( most found in africa ) and the genetic diversity of the native african's is the greatest of any group ( had the longest time to accumulate the diversity )

I don't think I went well in the blood groups Q's

thansk for the human summary notes telepathateic...like u sent me any anyway..nvm i did my own and managed..

i did the out of africa model about the mitchondrial DNA from the fossil in neanderthal and how it accounts for the time when species evolved from the common ancestor and how ppl migrated from land bridges it was the biggest load if shit ever!..i managed to write one page though..

and for the blood groups i wrote that the other indians and aborigines were isolated and therefore culd not genetically mix causing a limited variation in blood types

I like Human Story..i filled about 4 pages in writing about the Out of Africa model and referred to mt-DNA, the similarities between Aus. aborigines and H. erectus fossils, polymorphism representing how species did NOT interbreed as the regional continuity theiry outllines, etc.

Blood group has no relation to evolution theories. All that can be said was the Aus aborigines and Peruvian indians simply did not interbreed with populations where the B blood group is prevalent.

Hmmm, the gather, analyse...blah blah part was a complete load of BS for about 2 1/2 pages...we never even did the research, so i made it up. But the option was DEFINITELY the best part of the exam...i was quite happy

i dodn't like 'the human story'option questions.
It wasn't the main part of the human story syllabus. If that makes any sense.

It tested wierd things, rather than short answer rote-learned questions.
