What is an adaptation

a camel has humps to store water

a rabbit that has fur that blends in with snow

a trait that makes an organism more likely to reproduce

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.

Which freshwater ecosystem is most productive

marsh or swamp in warm sub tropical climates

What is a reproductive strategy

The method an organism uses to produce offspring

the way that a species creates offspring

What principles is not part of Darwin's original theory of evolution by natural selection

Random processes are not part of the theory of evolution by natural selection.

What phenotype frequency in a population changes after each generation which would most likely be causing this

Competition between organisms would most likely cause the phenotype frequency in a population that changes each generation.

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.

You mama

The allele frequency does not change.

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

Which statement is ture about all adaptations

In a study involving genetic traits a sample is large enough

Would be too difficult to make even larger

A biologist measures the allele frequencies of pea plants in a very controlled environment. The plants can either have a dominant tall allele (T) or a recessive short allele (t). Which of the followin

one off the pea plants mates more than the others

tall plants are more likely to survive

Random chance is an important part of a simulation because it is a way to imitate the complexity of the natural world. By incorporating random chance a scientist ensures that a series of steps are fol

A sample of a population should be large enough to

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

A parachute helps a person jump from an airplane and reach the ground without injury . Which of the following common items would best imitate the fragility of the human body in a simulation of a parachute jump

A raw egg (ApexLearning)

A fly has two alleles for the color of its eyes. The green allele is recessive, and is represented by blue allele is dominant, and is represented by p. If 28 of organisms are green , what is p

0.47 (apex)

a trait has 2 alleles and there frequencies are represented by q and p if p = 0.90 what is q
