T/F Mendel's work on inheritance was published after Darwin's lifetime. | show 🗑

show | He did not know the source of the variation that was so central to his theory. He could not explain how inheritable traits were passed from one generation to the next

T/F The gene pool typically contains just one allele for each inheritable trait | show 🗑
|
||||
The number of timmes that an allele occurs in a gene pool compared with the number of times other alleles occur is called the __________ of the allele. | show 🗑

T/F Mutations always affect an organisms phenotype | show 🗑

T/F Mutations always affect an organisms fitness | show 🗑
|

T/F Sexual reproduction can change the relative frequency of alleles in a population | show 🗑
|

T/F The number of phenotypes produced for a given trait depends on how many genes control the trait | show 🗑
|
||||
show | false
🗑
|
||||
T/F Natural selection on single-gene traits cannot lead to changes in allele frequencies | show 🗑
|
||||
show | It would disappear from the gene pool completely or fewer copies of an allele would be passed down to future generations

If a trait had no effect on an organisms fitness, what would happen to the alelle for that trait? | show 🗑

show | 1Directional selection 2Stabilizing Selection 3Disruptive Selection
🗑
|
||||
What is directional selection? | show 🗑
|

show | Individuals near the center of the curve have higher fitness than individuals at either end
🗑
|
||||
show | Individuals at the upper and lower ends of the curve have higher fitness than individuals near the middle

Random change in allele frequencies in small populations is called ________ | show 🗑
|
||||
show | founder effect
🗑
|
||||
What is an example of the founder effect? | show 🗑
|
||||
show | Allele frequencies in a population will remain constant unless one or more factors cause those frequencies to change

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.
