I contacted him to find out how he could help me and he told me never to be worried that he would help me with the natural herbs medicine! After 2 days of contacting him he told me the medicine is ready and he sent it to me via DHL COURIER SERVICE and it got me in 3 days! I used the medication as he prescribed for me (MORNING and EVENING) and I was cured! It's really like a dream, but I'm so happy! For people suffering from the following diseases Eczema,Shingles,MS,Bullous Pemphigoid,Diabetes, cancer,Pcos, hypothyroidism,vaginal rashes, Herpes, COPD, HIV, arthritis, Hpv, liver disease, autoimmune diseases, Parkinson's disease, Lupus and more should contact him for his herbal medicine, because I am a living witness and I was cured of herpes virus. and DR James medicine is legitimate.

Dang. It seems as if the "natural order" of the Hamilton-Zuk hypothesis does not work in the favor of those that can only own a car. It is a fortunate thing that we live in a society where we can "cheat" this hypothesis. Actually, it would be more accurate to say that we are fortunate to live in a a society where the H-Z hypothesis does not apply (since we lack a significant threat of parasites and we have more "free will" than animals.) Life would be more miserable if we had to go through it worrying about a heavy load of parasites. The misery only compounds when you add in the courtship we have to go through in order to find a mate.Think of building up muscles while dealing with several intestinal parasites; I'd think twice about lying on the bench. But, this is a great supplement to our previous studies on the H-Z hypothesis. I didn't know that Carotenoids played a role in this. Enlightening.

This further supports the Hamilton Zuk hypothesis and goes back to the car house paradox in which individuals who can afford a nice car can typically afford a nice house. I guess if you added carotenoids it would be the car, house, yacht hypothesis. Although we can theory craft scenarios in which the H-Z would not work, as mentioned before, I think it's a solid foundation to start when looking at sexual selection. Overall, it has proven effective in most scenarios.

I do believe however, that there is still a way to trick nature. Say a partridge who was genetically weaker, grew up in a region where the foods that are full of caratenoids are surprisingly for at least a few years. This partridge would be able to reproduce as successfully with a genetically stronger partridge simply because the weaker had so much more caratenoids in its system. In this way, lek participation seems to be much more definitive. A weaker bird that may have avoided infection, in order to participate in a lek, would necessarily expose himself to other birds who may be parasitized, eventually reducing the weaker bird's participation. And to Emily's comment: it is true.

In one of my classes last semester we discussed the traits that are favorable to humans, such as larger breasts and fair skin in women. Of course in high school and college every girl wants to be tan, but apparently lighter skin has a greater evolutionary benefit. Lighter skin is indicative of more vitamin D production, so if humans ever needed to move towards the poles, fair skin would provide a benefit that darker skin could not. Larger breasts also provide an evolutionary benefit: they're associated with higher production of estradiol and progesterone, both of which promote fertility. BUT I don't want to give men the excuse of sexualizing women (big boobs, small waist, big hips) "for evolution"!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14529136305320443169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4490037155917753470.post-5395529017491250042014-04-15T00:18:06.691-04:002014-04-15T00:18:06.691-04:00I enjoyed how you linked the idea of our own beaut...I enjoyed how you linked the idea of our own beauty to the Hamilton-Zuk hypothesis. Not only could acne and hormones be a sign of sexual maturity...there are many other secondary sexual characteristics that we find more attractive in a potential mate. What I wonder is, does this make us appear more healthy, and therefore more attractive? Like say, does a bigger beard or larger breasts indicate higher parasite tolerance, or is that completely ridiculous? (Probably, but it's worth a thought...) And even if we are not so lucky to grow these characteristics, are humans so evolved that we can still be attractive to a partner without them? I think that the Hamilton-Zuk hypothesis is a pretty good explanation for the animal world, but as you mentioned, we have so many ways of hiding sickness and lack of (or too much) secondary characteristics for this hypothesis to completely hold true to humans.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10368196569080582838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4490037155917753470.post-87924116892461766942014-04-14T19:24:32.020-04:002014-04-14T19:24:32.020-04:00When reading your blog and this section of the boo...When reading your blog and this section of the book I think about aging and how people in countries with less processed meats and more fruit age slower than we do as Americans. Our diets here for the most part consist of antibiotic loaded meats and overgrown vegetables and fruits which are probably grown under chemical conditions. I like to think that this could have something to do with how our body ages and handles the chemicals. Of course, that could be a long shot, but it is interesting to think about.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08678415896633273246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4490037155917753470.post-17619349520228076472014-04-14T18:44:40.377-04:002014-04-14T18:44:40.377-04:00Another problem with using the Hamilton-Zuk hypoth...Another problem with using the Hamilton-Zuk hypothesis is the handicap of immunocompetence (Folstad 1992). This is where the trait that attract females-like bright ornamentation- are secondary sexual characters. The expression of horns and antlers are dependent on testosterone, which acts as an immunosuppressant. So although the male has an advantage with more weapons (horns and antlers) the male also is more susceptible to parasites. This creates the paradox that although sexual selection favors reproduction by individuals more resistant to parasites, the involvement of testosterone in the signaling mechanism renders these individuals more vulnerable to the same parasites.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12843951475946772548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4490037155917753470.post-21721862612700263492014-04-14T13:01:25.152-04:002014-04-14T13:01:25.152-04:00While the Hamilton-Zuk is a great way to predict t...While the Hamilton-Zuk is a great way to predict the fitness of an individual, there are exceptions. In some cases, the parasite isn't common making the parasite more difficult to detect or the females are attractive too causing selection not to be associated with parasites. Despite knowing this, I like how you integrated diet into the discussion of selection. As humans, we often think about how diet affects our health. Those with the most money have access to more food and better quality of food. However, we seldom think about how the fruits and vegetables that we need are also needful for animals as well. In areas where there is an abundance, it makes selection less of an obstacle. On the contrary, in low income country, the animals do not have such easy access causing them to have compromised fitness as you so eloquently pointed out.
