Select the option that contains three evolutionary forces
a) natural selection, genetic drift, gene flow
b) somatic cells, chromosomes, natural selection
c) non-random mating, genomes, variation
d) proteins, genetic drift, alleles
e) natural selection, DDT resistance, environment
There are five forces that contains three evolutionary forces.
1)natural selection
2)genitic drift
3)mutation
4)population mating structure
5)culture
So option a is right.
Select the option that contains three evolutionary forces a) natural selection, genetic drift, gene flow b)...
During the evolutionary synthesis, biologists conclusively identified natural selection, gene flow, genetic drift, and mutation as the major causes of evolution within species. Using the scientific definition of evolution, explain how these forces cause populations, species, and higher taxa to evolve.
Of the following evolutionary forces; crossing over, directional selection, mutation, speciation, stabilizing selection, sex, gene flow and genetic drift which promote or maintain genetic variation within a population? a) crossing over only b) directional selection and sex c) directional selection, mutation, and speciation d) crossing over, mutation, sex, and gene flow e) only sex Of the following evolutionary forces, crossing over, directional selection, mutation, speciation, stabilizing selection, sex, gene flow and genetic drift which promote genetic differentiation (divergence) among populations?...
5. Using the following evolutionary concepts (speciation, macroevolution, microevolution, gene flow,genetic drift, and natural selection), represent your idea of how these evolutionary concepts are related to another. Use lines to connect and show the relationship between concepts. Write a word or short phrase by each line to specify the relationship between cocnepts.
are these correct Stopping which of these evolutionary forces can lead to speciation? A. genetic drift OB. gene flow OC. natural selection OD. sexual selection O E. mutations QUESTION 2 Speciation is most commonly a result of A. copatry OB. antipatry OC. allopatry OD. sympatry O E. sexual 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...
Which of the following factors may, in different situations, either increase or decrease genetic variation in a population? natural selection gene flow non-random mating genetic drift stabilizing selection
Describe the four basic causes of evolution: natural selection, mutation, genetic drift, and gene flow. The paper should be 400- 500 words (~ 1 double-spaced, APA formatted page). Refer to the attached document for the grading rubric.
1. Genetic variation _____. A. is created by the direct action of natural selection B. must be present in a population before natural selection can act upon the population C. arises in response to changes in the environment D. tends to be reduced by when diploid organisms produce gametes 2. What is a genetic correlation? A. When selection favoring alleles for one trait causes a correlated but suboptimal change in an allele for another trait. B. When two offspring inherit...
Select the statements that accurately describe the effect of natural selection on genetic equilibrium: a. It can cause allele frequencies in a population to be in genetic equilibrium. b. It can cause a dominant allele for a gene to become more abundant in a population. c. It can cause an allele to become more abundant in a population if it provides a fitness advantage over other alleles for that trait. d. It is an evolutionary force that prevents natural populations...
Technical: Create a concept map with these terms: genetic drift, adaptation, mutation, gene flow, natural selection, inbreeding. Make a minimum of 5 connections Reflection: One paragraph: Think of an example that you have witnessed where an environment seemed out of balance in terms of # of autotrophs, or heterotrophs. If you cannot remember a situation where you noticed this, think about your neighborhood. Look outside, what do you see in terms of balance of trophic levels? Include the following in...
