How does natural selection lead to evolution

a species can gradually change into new species

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.

When will natural selection occur

Natural selection occurs when four conditions are met:

1. There is variation among individuals.

2. That variation is at least partially heritable.

3. That variation is linked to differential reproductive success.

4. More individuals are born than can survive and reproduce.

How do adaptations affect a species

They make the species more genetically diverse

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

Creation of an unnaturally uniform sample to represent a diverse population can be avoided by

selecting individuals at random. Apex 8)

How are finches in the Galapaagos Islands a good example of adaptation

Finches developed many different adaptations. For example, one type of finch had a short strong beak meant for cracking seeds, while another had a long narrow beak for gathering food from the inside of flowers, and cacti, therefore making each species more adapted to its specific environment and more able to gather food then they would on another island with a different main food source.

A scientist wonders what would happen if 10 million liters of crude oil were dumped into Lake Michigan. what is the most ethical reason for running a simulation rather than dumping

an experiment shouldnt cause harm- apex

What statements is most true about the adoption of cell phone technology by people in Africa

Which statement is ture about all adaptations

A computer will reliably follow a set of instructions without any variation or mistakes. is the best explanation for why random chance is included in a computer simulation

A living thing rarely repeats a behavior in exactly the same way

A sample of a population should be large enough to

span the full spectrum of a population's genetic variation.-apex
