Class data for Exercise 1 generated using Avida-ED. a Frequency of different #’s of mutations per run. Data shown are for 90 responses from 30 students, and show that while the mean value for the runs is close to five, individual runs ranged from 1 to 13. b Distribution of mutations across the Avidian genome. The number of mutations is shown as a function of Avidian genome position, showing that all 50 positions in the genome are subject to mutation
