On the Galapagos, birds with greater bill depth (larger beaks) are better at

cracking bigger seeds

During the industrial revolution, which color of peppered moth was most fit?

dark colored

What is natural selection?

differential reproductive success

In the Artificial Selection Lab, the second generation bar graph has the highest bars pushed to the right which is an example of

directional selection

When the most common average trait (for example, beak size) shifts to the left or to the right in a bell curve (becomes larger or smaller), this is called

directional selection

If the two extreme forms of a trait (for example, large beak and small beak) become more common than the average form (medium size beak), then this is called

disruptive selection

earlier

Which of the following is NOT a type of selection (a mechanism for evolution)? natural sexual artificial equilibrium all answers are correct

equilibrium

A lack of genetic diversity in a population can lead to

extinction

In the Artificial Selection lab in our class, what trait will we select for in the Wisconsin Fast Plants (Brassica rapa)?

number of trichomes

If you are asked to solve for allele frequency, what variables will you consider?

p and q

Mr. Anderson describes an adaptation as a process which can include a

both of the other two answers are correct

Genetic drift causes evolution by

chance

What is evolution?

change in a group over time

In the artificial selection lab, the word "artificial" is used because the selection of which organisms will reproduce is made by

people

Phenotypes include

physical characteristics

Henry David Thoreau was a famous writer, but he was also a naturalist. From his journals, we have learned what date certain

plants flowered

What is a bee stick used for?

pollinate plants

After you have solved for q^2, your next goal is to solve for

q and p

q^2

When asking about individuals, you will almost always start by solving for

q^2

When using the Hardy-Weinberg Equation, which of the following do we usually solve for first?

q^2

Genetic drift has the largest impact on _________ populations.

small

What size populations have less variation?

small

Change due to genetic drift takes place when there is a

small sample size

Which of the following would take a population out of equilibrium and cause the population to evolve (not be the same)? no mutations no selection no gene flow small sample size random mating

small sample size

The bottleneck effect is when a large population becomes

smaller

Variation or genetic diversity makes it probable that ________ members of a population will survive during a disease outbreak.

some

When the average form of a trait (for example, birth weight) become more common and the extremes (low and high birth weight) become less common, this is called

stabilizing selection

If you are prescribed antibiotics (to kill a bacterial infection), it is important that you

take all of the medicine that is prescribed or the bacteria will be more likely to become resistant to the antibiotic

People who are immune to HIV today, may be descended from people

that were once immune to the plague or small pox.

Why are the glaciers in Glacier National Park melting?

the Earth is getting warmer

Sexual dimorphism in a species is when

the female and male look significantly different

Sexual selection (a mechanism of evolution) is determined by

the mate's (female's) choice

Mutations (changes in the DNA) lead to changes in

the physical appearance

The smallest unit that can evolve is

the population

their lack of variation or difference between Tasmanian devils

In growing Fast Plants, how long does it take to go from seeds to the next generation of new seeds?

less than a month

lower

malaria

Where do new (novel) traits come from?

mutations

Allele frequencies can range from

0 to 1

If (unlike the example shown in the video) there were 12 blue genes and 8 red genes, what would be the frequency of the blue/dominant allele or p?

0.6

If you have ____ copy(s) of the sickle cell anemia gene, then you cannot get malaria.

1

What does p + q equal?

1

In the Hardy-Weinberg Equation, 2pq stands for the frequency of ______________. (assuming we are using the "D" and "d" alleles)

Dd

32%

Which of the following population sizes would have the least amount of drift (change in the frequency of the dominant (p) and recessive (q) alleles)?

5000

Given the following alleles: A (the dominant allele) and a (the recessive allele), which one would you use if you wanted to calculate p?

A
