An island of the Galápagos archipelago is home to a medium ground finch that subsists mainly by eating seeds. A severe drought struck the island. During the drought, plants produced fewer seeds, and the finches soon depleted the stock of small and soft seeds, leaving only large and hard seeds that were difficult to process. In this environment, finches with deeper beaks were more likely to survive and pass their advantageous traits to their offspring by means of the principle called the 'inheritance of acquired characteristics'. Question 11 options: A) True B) False
Lamarck’s proposed mechanism for the inheritance of acquired traits was correct. Group of answer choices: True False

In one species of finch, there are alleles for yellow color and red color, but neither of these alleles is dominant over the other. When a finch of this species has both of these alleles, its color is orange. If an orange finch is bred with a yellow finch, the phenotypes of the offspring will occur in what ratio? (Hint: Construct a Punnett square to help you answer this question.) A 1:1 ratio of yellow and orange A 1:2:1 ratio of yellow, orange, and red A 1:3 ratio of red and yellow A 1:1 ratio of orange and red In this species of finch, the alleles for color are an example of codominace or imcomplete dominance?
