#ROCK POCKET MOUSE VIDEO QUESTIONS ANSWERS CODE#
They then use a genetic code chart, to determine the amino acids encoded by a sequence of the Mc1r gene in different mouse populations. If dark-colored rock pocket mice had a competitive advantage of 0.1 it would take more than 1,000 years for 95 of. When dark colored fur gives mice a 1 competitive advantage and 1 of the population begins with dark fur, in about 1,000 years 95 if the population will have dark fur. The activity begins with students reading a magazine article and watching the film. Mutations are always a change in an organisms DNA. Students analyze genetic sequence data and draw conclusions about the evolution of coat-color phenotypes in the rock pocket mouse. The activity begins with students reading a magazine article and watching the film.
