So... microevolution is referring to the evolution of one small part of something rather than the whole. A fingerprint is like microscopic gripping on your finger that makes it easier for you to hold onto things. The length of your thumb is (hopefully) proportional to your hand. If your thumb was too short- it would be hard to hold onto larger objects, if it where too big it would be hard to hold smaller objects.

I'm not 100% about this question BUT, I'm going to take a guess. I'm thinking...if I'm even close...that an example could be the way we can't bent the tip or our pinky without moving our ring finger! Try it, it's ridiculous :P
