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 28 Countries that are considered less-developed have more land that is protected from development than other countries, where development prevents the protection of land. True False
Question 1. In total, how many plant populations were established in this experiment? In each of these populations, what was the initial frequency of each plant genotype? Question 2. Did evolution occur in the control populations? If so, what factor or factors may have caused evolution by natural selection in these populations? Explain your answer. Question 3. Did evolution occur in the populations exposed to the generalist herbivore? If so, what factor or factors may have caused evolution by natural selection in these populations? Explain your answer. Question 4. Compare results for the control and generalist herbivore treatments. Why do you think the experiment showed the results that it did? Plant Genotypes Suppose the researchers conduct another experiment to investigate whether a generalist herbivore can affect the natural selection of a plant species. They establish ten replicate populations of the plant and expose each to two experimental treatments: a control (no herbivore) and…

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
