If fossil evidence of the most recent common ancestor of A and B (10 million years ago) was found on both sides of the river (that formed 20 million years ago), then the distribution of A and B is best explained by vicariance. ( choose true or false) 2- It is possible that species C will speciate. ( choose true or false) 3- The distribution of the two species-C populations cannot be explained by two totally independent dispersal events by the common ancestor species of A and B. ( choose true or false) 4- B must share a more recent common ancestor with C1 than it does with C2. (choose true or false)

QUESTION 14 Darwin’s finches on the Galapagos Islands are a group of species of finches. One of the major features noted is the variation in beak depth. We spent some time talking about the variation in the ground finch population and how that changed overtime and how that change corresponded to changes in environmental conditions, which affected food item characteristics and abundance. The changes in beak depth over time is a result of… a. natural selection b. gene flow c. sexual selection d. artificial selection
QUESTION 22 Tiktaalik and Archaeopteryx are very important transitional forms. They provide evidence for evolution through examples of: a. microevolution b. macroevolution c. migration d. speciation
QUESTION 8 Morphological differences are abundant among many species. We make assumptions about why adaptations exist, but to understand whether a specific trait is a adaptive and why, researchers must create experiments that have all the following, EXCEPT: a. replication of each treatment to ensure reliability of results. b. hypotheses that are testable and falsifiable. c. include control groups. d. exceedingly small sample sizes in each treatment group. e. experimental design that enables all full interpretation of differences.
QUESTION 23 Allele frequencies for eye color in a population of hippogriffs is p=0.73. How many individuals would you expect to be heterozygous in a population 150? (Assume HWE)
QUESTION 38 All of the following are true statements about the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium (HWE) principle, EXCEPT: a. HWE concludes that allele frequencies change over time. b. HWE principle assumes that all of the individuals in your population survive and reproduce equally. c. HWE concludes that if given the allele frequencies we can then accurately predict the genotype frequencies in the population. d. HWE principle assumes large, completely isolated populations.
Question 5 A rather large population of organisms have 396 red-sided individuals and 557 tan-sided individuals. Assume that red is totally recessive. Please calculate the following: a) The allele frequencies of each allele b) The expected genotype frequencies. c) The number of heterozygous individuals that you would predict to be in this population. d) The expected phenotype frequencies. e) Conditions happen to be really good this year for breeding and next year there are 1,245 offspring. Assuming that all of the Hardy-Weinberg conditions are met, how many of these would you expect to be red-sided and how many tan-sided?
QUESTION 18 Describe: Population aging and increased longevity are creating more multi- and intergenerational families in the U.S. Give two examples of ways in which family structure and family roles are changing because of these changes.
QUESTION 16 You are examining a beloved population of trillium in the backyard of your childhood home. You recall as a child that flowers were bright white. As you return to the population you note that many (but not all) of the flowers have a faint purple vertical stripe in the middle of each petal. List each of Darwin’s postulates and what must be true about your population if it has undergone evolution by natural selection for petal color.
Question 1: In the land between the lakes, Elk and Bison Prairie, we currently have 125 bison and 15 elk. These species are known to compete for some but not all of their resources. We are able to determine that the carrying capacity of the bison K1 is 200 and that the alpha (competition coefficient) is 4. The carrying capacity for Elk (K2) is 100 and the beta (competition coefficient) is 1. Part a) At what population size of elk will the isocline of the bison intersect (K1/alpha)? Round up to the nearest whole number

Question 1.You have sampled a population in which you know that the percentage of the homozygous recessive genotype (aa) is 36%. Using that 36%, calculate the following: A) The frequency of the "aa" genotype. B) The frequency of the "a" allele. C) frequency of the a allele, then the frequency is 60%. D) The frequency of the "A" allele. E) frequency of A is by definition equal to p, so the answer is 40%. F) The frequencies of the genotypes "AA" and "Aa." G)The frequencies of the two possible phenotypes if "A" is completely dominant over "a."
