Question
Chapter 31.5, Problem 1MC
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The study to suggest the function of discontinuous breathing in the Atlas moth pupa.
Concept introduction:
Insects have spiracles which allows for the exchange of air inside the body of the insects. The example includes the species of the Atlas moth (“Attacus atlas”), in which the scientists have discussed this phenomenon from the larvae to the pupa stage and analyzed the concentration of the oxygen in the tracheae.

The pesticide DDT was widely used in the 1940s as a method of insect control. In
the late 1950s the first DDT-resistant mosquitoes were discovered, and
eventually DDT-resistant mosquitoes were found globally. When DDT is used
now, the development of DDT resistance in mosquito populations occurs in
months rather than years.Which of the following best explains the observations
concerning DDT resistance in mosquitoes? *
The proportion of DDT-resistant mosquitoes in a population remains constant due to
the metabolic costs of DDT utilization
DDT is a chemical signal that delays normal reproductive cycles in many mosquito
populations.
Natural selection favors DDT-resistant mosquitoes that are already present in a
population when DDT exposure occurs.
Competition for limited resources causes mosquitoes to migrate to geographical
areas that have richer supplies of DDT.
