Chapter 1, Problem 4FIB
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Evolution is the change in the heritable characteristics of biological populations over successive generations. Natural selection changes the genetic makeup of a population by favoring the alleles that contribute to the reproductive success and selecting against those that do not. Natural selection does not eliminate alleles directly.

Operation: Arthroscopic subtotal medial meniscectomy, left knee Anesthetic: General endotracheal Description of Procedure: The patient was placed on the operating table in the supine position and general endotracheal anesthesia was administered. After an adequate level of anesthesia was achieved, the patient's left lower extremity was prepped with Betadine scrubbing solution, then draped in a sterile manner. Several sites were then infiltrated with 1% Xylocaine solution with Epinephrine to help control bleeding from stab wounds to be made at these sites.
