  1. I have read a lot of information about this subject and the answer is an obviously yes.
    All the standards that we had at the moment are the consequences of what evolution considered that was better for our survival.
    An example is the grade of sunlight use: depending in the place you were born (or your where your relatives were from) your skin could be very different to people from another place.
