This is a presentation on the Evolution of Human Skin Color


The question you need to answer in you paper is- Why is there such a variety of skin colors for Homo sapien. Include in your answer the evolutionary pressures that has lead to these trends. Support you argument with evidence. Make sure you explain why humans today don't follow the same geographic distribution of skin color that our ancestors did.
