“Evolutionary psychology is silly!” exclaims Julie.  “If we are so adapted to the environment, why haven’t we evolved away from racism?” A reasonable response to this, based on the explanation of evolutionary psychology presented by the authors of your text, is that
   a.   evolutionary psychology simply can’t explain social behavior.
   b.   evolutionary psychology can only explain mating behaviors.
   c.   evolution occurs very slowly, and thus genetic adaptations have not “caught up.”
   d.   we do have evidence for a racism gene, but it is unethical to tamper with the human genome.
