Suppose that you are a professor and a student comes to see you to ask about the debate between evolution and creationism. What would you tell the student? In other words, how can one believe in both God and evolution at the same time? Answer as if you were a professor speaking to the student. Hints: The best source of information on this topic comes from the online lecture relating to this issue. Do not simply copy information from the lecture presentation. You should answer the question as if you were a professor talking to a student. Make sure you clearly explain how one can believe in both views. Note that much of the information about this question was presented in the previous unit. Suppose you were having a conversation with someone who pointed out that Latinos historically did not perform well academically. The person then made the claim that, “Those who are Latinx are genetically inferior in intellectual capacity.” How would you respond? Describe and apply the three misconceptions about race to the statement. Hints: You should use the information relating to the three misconceptions of race found in the lecture and supplemented in the textbook to answer the question. You will be graded on how well you apply the information to the question asked about people who are Latinx. Note that this is a difficult question and you should put in an appropriate amount of time. Ralph Waldo Emerson, one of America’s best-known 19th-century figures is credited with the following quote: “As we grow old…the beauty steals inward.” This suggests that as people age, they grow less attractive. Most evolutionary biologists would agree. (a) From an evolutionary perspective, explain in detail why men should find younger women more attractive. (b) Adam Wetsman proposed a slightly different explanation for why men are so interested in attractiveness. Explain in detail his pro- posal. Hints: See the lectures relating to mate preferences and the “Looks Paradox”.
