5. Describe how the authors accounted for age in the methods. Why is this important? 6. Explain the results shown in Fig. 1. What was the value for h²? a. For what specific trait, therefore, do they demonstrate heritability? b. Can that trait evolve? C. What if they studied the same trait in a different population and got a value of h²=0.4. Which population would evolve faster? 7. Explain the authors' reasoning for rejecting body condition affecting parasite load (see 3rd paragraph of Discussion). Draw a hypothetical graph that corresponds to their description of why they rejected the hypothesis. 8. Describe the problem of uncertain paternity with respect to this study. How could the authors definitely determine paternity and make sure they correctly identified each offspring's parents? 9. Do you agree or disagree with the authors' conclusions? Why or why not?
