Author(s): Christopher Portosa Stevens*
What shapes and organizes biological variation? Scientists have long suspected that factors in addition to Darwinist natural selection shape and organize biological variation, and scientists also have suspected that increasing culture plays a role in shaping and organizing brain Encephalization in the evolution of the genus Homo. I compare a population of clones to the natural population from which the clones are derived to generate new predictions regarding the evolution of species, and also to facilitate the identification of an unrecognized branching pattern or series of branching patterns in the evolution of the human species. In the case of an individual organism taken at random to produce a population of clones, it is possible to predict that the distribution of characteristics of the species population or natural population from which the clones were derived collapses in the po..
