Imagine a population of pea plants growing in Petaluma. 50% of the gene pool is P alleles, for purple flowers and 50% is p alleles, for white flowers. How can the frequency of the alleles change in this population over generations? Select all the correct answers. Group of answer choices genetic drift natural selection mutation gene flow
Which of the following observations about populations shaped Darwin’s principles of natural selection? Select all that apply. As a population expands, resources that are used by its individuals eventually become limited. Individuals within a population naturally vary in the details of shared traits. Individuals of a population that are better able to survive tend to leave more offspring. Natural populations have an inherent capacity to increase in size over time. When resources are limited, the individuals of a population compete for those resources.
Each of the following has a better chance of influencing genotype frequencies in small populations than in large populations, but which one has the greatest influence in small populations? Group of answer choices Non-random mating Natural selection Gene flow Genetic drift Mutation PreviousNext
A. Use the genotype frequencies, relative fitness, and the mean relative fitness to calculate the genotype frequencies expected to be found in the next generation Show your work, include 3 decimals. p2’ = 2pq’ = q2’ = B. Is natural selection acting in this population in this new environment?
According to the principle of Hardy-Weinberg, which of the following will NOT change the frequencies of genotypes in a population? Select one: Genetic drift Natural selection Mutation Random mating
How do the rest of the vocabulary terms (the ones you didn't use below) apply to what you observed in the images? Vocabulary terms: Natural Selection, Adaptation, Fitness, Genetic Diversity, Phenotype, Polymorphic, and Selective Pressure
Imagine a population of beetles living in someone's backyard. The beetles inhabit several different areas of the backyard, including the garden, patio, and storage shed. One day, the owners spray the garden with insecticide, killing off about half of the beetle population. What effect will this have on genetic variation and what evolutionary force is this an example of? Group of answer choices Reduces variation; genetic drift Increases variation; natural selection Reduces variation; natural selection Increases variation; genetic drift
The Hardy-Weinberg principle states that allele and genotype frequencies remain constant from one generation to the next, as long as specific conditions are met. Choose Yes or No for the conditions that must be met from the providied statement below. 1. Mutations are exponentially occuring 2. All member of the population breed 3. Everyone produces the same number of offspring 4. The population is infinitely large 5. There is no migration in or out of the population 6. No net mutations are occuring 7. Natural selection of beneficial traits is occuring 8. Natural selection is not occuring 9. All mating is completely random 10. Offspring are able to migrate out of the population
Hardy Weinberg equilibrium in a population refers to Group of answer choices equal numbers of females and males. lack of mutations affecting the observed phenotypes. equal numbers of dominant and recessive alleles. unchanging allele frequencies in successive generations. proportional numbers of each genotype.
Populations evolve by means of natural selection Group of answer choices True False Population genetics is the study of the frequency of alleles in a population Group of answer choices True False
Which aspect(s) of natural selection is(are) illustrated by the figure below? Check ALL answers that apply. A. Variation among individuals must be genetically transmissible to the next generation. B. Variation must exist in a population. C. Variation among individuals leads to differences in lifetime reproductive success. D. More individuals are produced each generation than the environment can support, resulting in competition for survival.
Which colors are least represented, or absent, in the 2nd population? Use at least one buzzword (term) to explain why. Vocabulary terms: Natural Selection, Adaptation, Fitness, Genetic Diversity, Phenotype, Polymorphic, and Selective Pressure
