Please help me with these questions and please answer all of
these questions to get a thumbs up.
1) The statement that "populations evolve - not
individuals" best describes
a. Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection.
b. the Hardy - Weinberg principle.
c. Lamarkism
d. genetic equilibrium.
2) The existence of ubiquitous genes and proteins
(performs the same function in all organisms) strongly support the
theory that all life evolved from a common ancestor. With that in
mind, what kind of genes might be evolutionarily conserved and
universally found in bacteria, plants and animals?
a. genes that code for the synthesis of ribosomes.
b. genes that code for the enzymes of glucose metabolism
c. genes that code for the synthesis DNA and RNA polymerase
d. all of the above.
3) Convergent evolution may lead to development
of
a. analogous structures.
b. vestigial organs.
c. homologous structures.
d. disappearance of a structure from gene pool.
4) A particular allele is more like to disappear from
______________ populations than from ___________________
populations.
a. large/small
b. diverse/similar
c. small/large
d. all of the above
5) The ultimate source of new alleles is
a. mutation. b. evolution. c. natural selection. d. random
mating.
6) Which one of the following criteria does not describe
a species?
a. they must reproduce sexually.
b. usually produces a fertile hybrid when mated outside species
lines.
c. they share a common gene pool.
d. they are reproductivey isolated from other species.
7) Much of the evolution of different body shapes and
forms occurs through mutations in:
a. genes that time the development of and maturation of young
animals.
b. genes that provide new/novel traits.
c. genes that time/regulate the development in the embryo.
d. genes that regulate metabolism of glucose, proteins and
fats.
8) Constant washing with antibiotic soap initially kills
most of the bacteria on your hands but eventually selects for a
population of bacteria that are antibiotic resistant. This is an
example of natural selection that is:
a. stabilizing b. disruptive c. homologous d. directional
