What accounts for the fact that polydactylism is prevalent and Tay-Sachs disease virtually absent in one human population in the United States, while Tay-Sachs disease is prevalent and polydactylism virtually absent in another?
◦ Natural selection has promoted these differences since humans live in many different environments.
◦ Mutation rates differ between different loci.
◦ There is little gene flow between the two populations.
◦ The populations are small, and therefore genetic drift is a major factor in the determination of allele frequencies.
◦ Genetics is an unpredictable science.

Fatal fungal infections may be able to resist newer antifungal drugs. Globally, fungal infections are often fatal due to the lack of access to multiple antifungals, which may be required to be utilized in combination. Single antifungals may not be enough to stop a fungal infection from causing the death of a patient.
