Answer:
AntherFilamentStamenStigmaStyleOvaryPistilOvum/OvulePetalSepalDr. Nachman and his colleagues collected rock pocket mice across 35 kilometers of the Arizona Sonoran Desert, which included both dark, rocky lava outcrops and light, rocky, granite areas. They recorded substrate color, and coat-color frequencies for each location. Each site was separated from any of the others by at least eight kilometers. The researchers trapped a total of 275 mice. Their data are summarized below (numbers have been slightly modified for the purposes of this worksheet).

1. Calculate the overall frequencies of light-colored mice and dark-colored mice caught on light-colored substrates.
2. Calculate the overall frequencies of light-colored mice and dark-colored mice caught on dark-colored substrates.
3.Using the Hardy-Weinberg equation and data from the table above, determine the frequency of the three genotypes on the light, rocky, granite substrate.
4. Using the Hardy-Weinberg equation and data from the table above, determine the frequency of the three genotypes on the dark, rocky lava substrate.
5. Which fur color seems to have the greatest overall selective advantage?
6.What environmental change gave a selective advantage for one coat color over another?
7. In a separate study, 76 rock pocket mice were collected from four different, widely separated areas of dark lava rock. One collecting site was in Arizona. The other three were in New Mexico. Dr. Nachman and colleagues observed no significant differences in the color of the rocks in the four locations sampled. However, the dark-colored mice from the three New Mexico locations were slightly darker than the dark-colored mice from the Arizona population. The entire Mc1r gene was sequenced in all 76 of the mice collected. The mutations responsible for the dark fur color in the Arizona mice were absent from the three different populations of New Mexico mice. No Mc1r mutations were associated with dark fur color in the New Mexico populations. These findings suggest that adaptive dark coloration has occurred at least twice in the rock pocket mouse and that these similar phenotypic changes have different genetic bases. How does this study support the concept that natural selection is not random?
8. To determine if the rock pocket mouse population is evolving, explain why it is necessary to collect fur color frequency data over a period of many years.
Answer:
1)
frequencies of light-colored mice ≅ 0.74frequencies of dark-colored mice ≅ 0.262)
frequencies of light-colored mice ≅ 0.13frequencies of dark-colored mice ≅ 0.873)
q² = 0.74p² = 0.02 2pq = 0.244)
q² = 0.13p² = 0.42pq = 0.465)
The dark-colored fur seems to have the greatest overall selective advantage
6)
Dark lava, that changed the color of the substrate, from light to dark.
7)
Because to produce dark color, animals from the different regions suffered different mutations that drove them to have almost the same dark fur color. All of the animals are inhabiting dark substrate, which means that this environmental condition is favoring the same phenotype.
8)
To see if the mice population is evolving, you need to take a sample of animals per year, through many years, and analyze if it is changing or not. If the population is evolving, you will notice a change in the allelic and genotypic frequencies over the years, favoring one genotype or the other. If the population is not evolving, the frequencies will keep equal through the years, it will not change.

What if cellular respiration did not occur
Answer:
cellular respiration is a process that needs oxygen, so when oxygen is not present, they do not happen, but there is glycolysis, which doesn't need oxygen. the process of glycolysis produces 2 ATP and that is what is needed, so to continue glycolysis, the cells go through fermentation.
Explanation:
THE ANSWER IS FERMENTATION!!!!
Answer:
If cellular respiration does not occur, then the level of oxygen present in the cell will get decreased as a result cell can die due to lack of oxygen. This is because cellular respiration provides the energy necessary for cellular activities.

refers to the Linnaeus' method of naming species
using a unique two-word name made up of the genus and species name.
O cell organelle
O level of cladistics
O binomial nomenclature
O method of taxonomy
Answer:
binomial nomenclature
Explanation:
Binomial nomenclature as the name implies (binomial = two, nomenclature = naming) is a system of naming organisms that comprises of two unique Latin word names. The binomial nomenclature is a system of naming that was proposed by the man referred to as the FATHER OF TAXONOMY, CAROLUS LINNAEUS.
According to this system of naming organisms, the two names are the generic and specific epithet of the organism respectively. For example, in dog, which is Canis familiaris, Canis is the generic name while familiaris is the specific name.
Molecular anthropology ___________________ Question 1 options: uses genetic analysis of a DNA sequence to assess evolutionary links. is the specialty of the most important member of an archaeological excavation project. studies early hominins through fossil remains. uses microscopic phytolithic analysis to study molecular evolution. uses archaeological survey techniques to gather its data.
Answer:
The correct answer is ''uses genetic analysis of a DNA sequence to assess evolutionary links.''
Explanation:
Molecular anthropology is a relatively recent branch, it refers to the study of biological phenomena (genetic study) at molecular levels, that is, biochemical, it allows us to understand and expand our knowledge about the evolution of the species and the complex phenomena of microevolution . It is closely related to other fields of anthropological study, among which we can mention primatology and genetics.Through molecular anthropology we are more aware of kinship, therefore, we can know human evolution over the centuries .

The new growth rate would result in an increase of 4 thousand fog beetles over the course of 10 years.
The new growth rate would result in a decrease of about 4 million fog beetles over the course of 10 years.
There would be no change to the population after 10 years.

False
Question 13 (2 points)
Assume a new plot of land is added to the park, increasing the carrying capacity to 350 kudu. How will the population size change?
Question 13 options:
The population would continue to grow at the same rate until it hit 200 and then it would grow at a slower rate until it reached 350 kudu
The population would continue to grow until it hit the new carrying capacity.
It would provide more space for the trophy hunters to move in and hunt the kudu.
Question 14 (2 points)
Reset the carrying capacity back to 200. Trophy hunters move into the area, leading to an increased death rate, which decreases the growth rate r to 0.15. How would this impact the population size? (Hint: Look at when the population reaches its carrying capacity, look at the T value)
Question 14 options:
The kudu would grow at a very slow rate for 30 years and then the growth rate would slow down.
It would take about 25 more years for the kudu to reach their carrying capacity.
The population would reach its peak in the first 10 years

Describe the connection between limiting factors and invasive spicies
Answer: factors that limit a population size are limiting factors. Biotic potential is the amount of organisms that could be supported in an ecosystem if plenty of resources were available. Factors that cause a population to increase are 1)births: the number of births in a population in a certain period of time. 2) immigration: when organisms move INTO a population.
Explanation:
some examples of limiting factors are natural hazards, amount of food, amount/quality of water and air, predators deforestation.
What is the reaction for photosynthesis?
Answer:
The carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), and sunlight become new energy (stored in a sugar molecule called glucose, C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2). The original elements that make up carbon dioxide and water are never lost or destroyed during the process.
Answer:
I would most likely react in a positive way. Photosysntesis is pretty cool! I would probably say woow! or gasp loudly. However reactions to vary based on the individual i know many people who find the color green disgusting. For this reason they would probably say "ew" or "urgh" and be fairly negative.
Explanation:
Which of the following does NOT influence population change?
a. immigration rate
b. birth rate
c. emigration rate
e. death (mortality) rate
f. interest rate
