Abstract
The mean and variation of a population are easily seen by graphing the number of individuals that have a trait of a given value. In this experiment, we will investigate color variation found in a mealworm population using ADI.
In this investigation, we will use digital images and ADI to measure the increased surface area created by villi located in the small intestines.
