What else can I help you with?
Did you evolve?
Populations evolve, individuals are selected.
Why is DNA mutated?
It is how populations evolve.
Why do populations evolve?
To ensure its survival in its certain environment.
Which does natural selection affect populations or individuals?
Populations evolve, but individuals are selected. Natural selection affects individual organisms.
What did you evolve from?
I did not evolve from anything! Individuals are naturally selected and populations evolve. Understanding this simple fact can explain certain things that creationists do not seem to understand. Such questions as, " where did the first man find the first woman? " When you understand that populations evolve and individuals are selected then you will see that questions as the one you asked and questions as the one I used as an example are just silly.
The smallest unit of evolution is the population?
Yes, populations evolve. Individuals/genes are selected.
Describe what is occurring when a population is said to evolve?
The allele frequency of the populations gene pool is changing.
How do populations evolve over time?
Populations evolve over time through the process of natural selection, genetic drift, gene flow, and mutations. These mechanisms can lead to changes in the genetic makeup of a population, resulting in adaptations that increase the population's fitness and survival in its environment.
Which of the types of organisms would a scientist most likely observe to gain an understanding of how populations can evolve?
Bacteria
What is meant by the statement Populations evolve individuals don't?
This statement refers to the fact that evolution occurs at the level of populations over generations, with changes in allele frequencies leading to evolution. It emphasizes that individual organisms do not evolve within their lifetimes, as they do not change genetically, but rather it is the population as a whole that evolves.
Do genera populations phyla kingdoms or individuals evolve?
Individuals evolve through natural selection, leading to changes in the characteristics of populations over time. These changes can eventually lead to the evolution of new species within a specific genus, which may contribute to the diversification of higher taxonomic groups such as phyla and kingdoms.
An earthquake creates a chasm that separates a population of squirrels. The two populations of squirrels evolve into two separate species. What is the name of the process by which isolated populations?
cheating on study island? Speciation
