If a population consists only of individuals cloned from a single organism then a Lamarck was right about species change for that populaiton b natural selection would not occur in that population?

Neither.
Lamarckian evolution does not take place at all; almost all of his concepts are now known to be incorrect.
The population will still undergo mutation, and natural selection for beneficial mutations and against harmful ones will still occur.

What consists of groups of different species living and interacting in a given area?
A community
What is a molecule that consists of a piece of DNA from one organism combined with the DNA from a member of another species?
it is artificial selection if it is done by humans, and it is natural selection if it involves two different species reproducing. it is called "morphing".
What is the difremce between a community and a population?
In biology/ecology, a population is a group containing many members of a single species, and a community consists of all the organisms in a particular area.
What do pengiuns eat?
The Emperor Penguin's diet consists mainly of fish although its composition varies from population to population. Fish are usually the most important food source, and the (Pleuragramma antarcticum) makes up the bulk of the bird's diet.
What makes up communities?
by order: organism, species and population... it makes up community
What is the difference between a population and an individual?
A population is defined as:"A group of individuals of one species that live in a particular geographic area."A community is defined as:"All the organisms that inhabit a particular area; an assemblage of populations of different species living close enough together for potential interaction."The difference being that the population consists of just a signal species, and the community consists of a group of species and their interactions.
What represents the process through which evolution occurs?
Natural SelectionIn a population of organisms, a selection pressure favors the individuals whose characteristics are best-fit to survive it. Gradually, more and more of these individuals will live on and reproduce, while more and more of the others will die off (natural selection). Gradually, over millions of years, the gene pool of this ancestral species will change to that of these best-fit individuals, a process called adaptation.To clarify, here's a hypothetical example. A population of beetles living on a rocky beach is composed of gray and yellow individuals. A species of bird new to this beach (selection pressure)appears and makes its home there. Its diet consists of beetles, so it targets the beetle population for its meals. However, the only individuals it can see are the yellow ones because the gray ones blend in with the rocky ground. As a result, fewer and fewer yellow ones are able to survive, reproduce, and generate more of their own kind, and the population becomes more and more gray. This survival of best-fit individuals is natural selection. Give it a few million years, and the yellow variety will be wiped out, while the gray variety will be thriving; a change in the gene pool has occurred (adaptation).
Define the term population?
The amount of living things within an area

Population.
If a population consists of 10000 individuals at time t equals 0 years 'P0' and the annual growth rate is 3 percent 'GR' what will the population be after 1 15 and 100 years 'n'?
If a population consists of 10,000 individuals at time t=0 years (P0), and the annual growth rate (excess of births over deaths) is 3% (GR), what will the population be after 1, 15 and 100 years (n)? Calculate the "doubling time" for this growth rate. Given this growth rate, how long would it take for this population of 10,0000 individuals to reach 1.92 million? One equation that may be useful is:Pt = Po * (1 + {GR/100})nAdditionally, using the current world population from the census website, calculate world population in 2100 with growth rates of 2.3% and 0.5% Why is this important?THAT IS THE ENTIRE QUESTION! COULD SOME ONE PLEASE HELP ME!!!! THANK YOU
