- Question 18 When fitness is lower at both extremes of phenotypic variation for a trait (e.g., the very largest and very smallest beaks in a bird population) than for the median value in a population, the predominant evolutionary force at work is called Group of answer choices Only 1 correct answer phenotypic selection stabilizing selection directional selection phenotypic choiceQuestion:- 1:A missense mutation would decrease Ka/Ks true or false? 2:The Ka/Ks test can potentially detect: Positive selection Stabilizing selection Negative selection All of the aboveQUESTION 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.

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 43 Which of the following statements is true about linkage disequilibrium? a. D= -0.21 indicates that two loci are in greater LD than D= 0.15 b. New alleles are born into a population in LE with the surrounding loci c. Divergent populations that experience a sudden large migratory event will be immediately in LE after mixing. d. Selective sweeps occur randomly along chromosomes as a result of LE and LD alternating at regular intervals.
- 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%. Question 6A very large population of randomly-mating laboratory mice contains 35% white mice. White colouring is caused by the double recessive genotype, "aa". Calculate allelic and genotypic frequencies for this population. Question 7After graduation, you and 19 of your closest friends (lets say altogether 10 males and 10 females) charter a plane to go on a round-the-world tour. Unfortunately, you all crash land (safely) on a deserted island. No one finds you and you start a new population totally isolated from the rest of the world. Two of your friends carry (i.e. are heterozygous for) the recessive cystic fibrosis allele (c). Assuming that the frequency of this allele does not change as…QUESTION 30 Misconceptions (false-truths accepted by the general public) are a constant problem in terms of evolution education. Of the following statements, which one is actually TRUE? a. Natural selection only acts directly on phenotypes of individuals. b. Populations must evolve to avoid and prevent extinction of the species. c. Populations evolve to perfection such that all traits an individual has maximizes all aspects of fitness. d. A new trait cannot evolve within a population while undergoing selection favoring a different trait.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."
