Question
Answer
organisms change over time.   conclusion by Darwin  
🗑
evolution that focuses on changes in the gene pools of populations   microevolution  
🗑
evolution that focuses on changes that give rise to new species   macroevolution  
🗑
a change in the genetic characteristics of a population of organisms over time.   evolution  
🗑
differences in DNA sequences between the individuals in a population.   Results of Mutation  
🗑
Arise from mutation   different alleles  
🗑
new individuals contribute their alleles to the gene pool of a population   gene flow  
🗑
Chance events that affect the survival and reproduction of individuals in a population   genetic drift  
🗑
Three quarters of the flowers will be gray and one-quarter will be white.   phenotype frequency of progeny of heterozygotes  
🗑
is the principal cause of evolutionary change.   variation acted on by natural selection  
🗑
Evidence that support the hypothesis because dark-colored mice were attacked more in light environments and light-colored mice were attacked more in dark environments   adaptation by natural selection  
🗑
Natural selection acted on the genetic variability present in the organism’s genomes.;   evolution  
🗑
Adaptation by natural selection   nonrandom selection  
🗑
Evidence that a humans and chimpanzees share a recent common ancestor   homologous structures  
🗑
Number of individuals in a population with 200 alleles for each gene   100  
🗑
The frequency of q when p= 0.8   0.2  
🗑
Genotype frequency   genotype/total genotypes  
🗑
Rate of evolution of an organisms that reproduces slowly   slow evolution  
🗑
Effect of stable environmental conditions on evolution   does not stimulate evolution  
🗑
high mutation rate of HIV.   stimulate rapid evolution leads drug resistance  
🗑
appear without regard to environmental pressures   mutations  
🗑
makes the genetic composition of the two populations more similar.   gene flow  
🗑
Greater effect on small populations than on large populations   genetic drift  
🗑
Frequency of an allele = 1   allele fixation by genetic drift  
🗑
Bottleneck effect   type of genetic drift loss of genetic variation  
🗑
Stabilizing selection   emliominatoin of extreme in a bell curve  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
