How does natural selection lead to evolution

a species can gradually change into new species

What body cells undergo melosis

sex cells

What is it called when newer generations are better suited to an environment than the first generation is

Descent with modification

Is it harmful to cut trees down in the rain forest

What do people think about outher people cutting down trees in the rain forest

What did Malthus think would limit the population size

Food supply

What must be true for natural selection to happen

There must be genetic variation in the population

The system must not be in hardy-weinberg equilibrium.

resources must be limited in the ecosystem

What is the name for the process that causes a species to evolve

A) natural selection ( apex (

What idea did Malthus introduce

Mathus felt that population is limited by food supply so we need to limit population growth or starve.

Which best summarizes the peppered moths in England after the industrial revolution

The phenotype changed, which resulted in a black color adaptation.

How do peppered moths after the Industrial Revolution show the process of natural selection

The peppered moth had white bodies and wings, peppered with black. This coloration blended well into the original British countryside, hiding them from their predator the birds. Factories of the early industrial revolution covered everything with soot. Now the white stood out against the black surroundings making them easy targets for birds. Over time the white moths were wiped out. But, a few of them were darker in color, these survived and multiplied such that the white peppered moth was replaced buy the dark ones.

Black moths were selected for when the trees turned black.

the moths with the high fitness were selected for

The black moths were more fit for survival, so their phenotype frequency increased.

What did Malthus predict about the human population

It would grow too large and run out of food.

What best summarizes the peppered moths in England after the Industrial Revolution

allele frequency change Apex :)

What is a reproductive strategy

The method an organism uses to produce offspring

the way that a species creates offspring

What is the name for disturbance that removes most of the organisms and damges the soil

its landslide, in apex!!

In a study involving genetic traits a sample is large enough

Would be too difficult to make even larger
