The correct option is e) both a and b.
Natural selection favors phenotype which are better adapted to the environment.
It favors trait having higher chances of survival and reproduction in the given environment.
It is not a random process but mutation is.
It does not lead to perfectly optimal organisms but organisms having traits better suited in the environment.
Natural selection afavors phenotypes that increase survival bitsvors phenotypes that increase reproductive output c) is a...
Question 5 4 pts Natural selection a.) favors phenotypes that increase survival O b.) favors phenotypes that increase reproductive output O c.) is a random process O d.) leads to perfectly optimal organisms e.) both a and b
Evolution by Natural Selection can be described as: A) individuals with traits that increase survival will become more common, even if they don't reproduce B) individuals with genes that allow them to sacrifice themselves for the species are the more evolved C) Species evolve as a whole with all individuals within the population evolving at the same time D) Individuals with traits that increase survival and produce more offspring as a result, their genes become more common in the population
Adaptation is NOT: a. linked to survival b. adjustment to changing environmental conditions c. linked to reproductive success d. genetically determined e. increased in frequency by natural selection
False Question 10 1 pts Choose the statement or statements that are CORRECT about natural selection and evolution According to Darwin's hypothesis, natural selection is the primary mechanism for evolution the theory of evolution includes the idea that all living organisms share a common ancestor organisms that are closely related will have similar DNA and protein sequences natural selection is a random process natural selection will increase the prevalence of gene that improve fitness 1 pts Question 11
6. Which of these conditions will lead to evolution by natural selection? a. Heavy metal pollution reduces reproductive success of all phenotypes of green algae in the pond. b. Variation among individuals is not genetic; instead it results from learned behavior or physiological environmental responses. c. Introduction of an exotic predator species results in one native prey phenotype evading predation while other phenotypes get eaten. d. Individuals of the population are clones (genetically identical). 7. Which one is used as...
Which of the following statement relate to natural selection f select all that apply diferential reproductive Success competition for resources heritable vallation I breeding to Increase the frequency of desired traits
homologous structures uniformity analogous structures natural selection e. measured by reproductive success f. insect wing and bird wing g. survival of the fittest h. characteristic of radioisotope 11. Match the person with the correct description. Charles Darwin Jean-Baptiste Lamarck Alfred Wallace Georges Curvier Thomas Malthus a. Naturalist who entertained the idea of common ancestry b. Proposed that many species had become extinct c. Believed species become more perfect over time d. Individuals of a population must compete w/each other e....
The process by which humans selectively breed organisms for a favorable (for humans) character is Oa. None of the answers are correct Ob. Natural selection C. Random mating d. Artificial selection The differential survival and reproduction of individuals from an evolutionary perspective is a. Genetic Drift b. Artificial Selection Bottle Neck d. Natural Selection
heterozygote disadvantage Natural selection is the process by which organisms with the best adapted phenotype are selected for by environmental conditions. anthropogenic events such as the use of DDT heterozygote advantage Allelic frequencies can change due to selection or they may change due to genetic drift. environmental conditions The process of natural selection relies on the presence of of a gene within a population. genetic drift Deleterious alleles may persist in the population particularly if they confer a single allele...
Match one of the following terms to each part: Natural selection, speciation, disruptive selection, allele frequencies, directional selection a)Through time organisms change morphology making them different species is called? b) When an organism is fit and withstands change in their environment they can adapt and are selected to live longer and breed more is called? c)When traits change in populations the genotypes change which leads to this in the population?
