What does natural selection cause
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
What is the fitness of an organism
The ability to survive and reproduce
How does high biodiversity affect an ecosystem
It makes the ecosystem able to survive disturbances.
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.
How do adaptations affect a species
They make the species more genetically diverse
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.
Creation of an unnaturally uniform sample to represent a diverse population can be avoided by
selecting individuals at random. Apex 8)
What must be true for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium to occur
No disruptive circumstances must be present in random mating in
a population for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium to occur.
Mating must happen randomly.
No allele can give an advantage
What is a disterbance that carries energy from place to place
Which is a primary disturbance Logging Snow melting Tree falling Volcanic eruption
Both logging snow melting and a tree falling and a volcanic
eruption are disturbance. The are both a big thing for the
earth.
What statements is most true about the adoption of cell phone technology by people in Africa
Which statement is ture about all adaptations
A snake is bought into a new ecosystem that is hotter than its old ecosystem. the snake cannot survive in the high temperature and dies. which is the best way to describe this snake in the new ecosyst
The inclusion of random chance in an experiment is an attempt to imitate aspects of the natural world A.Each individual in a population behaves in a slightly different manner. B.Some organisms a
Each individual in a population behaves in a slightly different manner.
