[edit] Please Explain
Phylogenetic constraints are generally factors that might stop certain lineages developing certain behavioral or morphological traits. Hence, it is no coincidence that generally birds are able to fly and mammals cannot. The evolutionary history of these lineages have made it profitable for birds to fly and for mammalian feet to remain planted on the ground.
Please explain what you mean by this, so I can rewrite it. What "factors" are you talking about?

[edit] Optimization should be written
The current article on optimization is maths based and shows little mention of biological optimality. Some one should either add it to the existing article or create Optimization (biology) or Optimality modeling. Jack (talk) 16:31, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
