Question
1.) What is meant by an Evolutionary Stable Strategy in terms of behavior?
a.) behavior which gains the most food for an individual
b.) behavior that allows many different species to survive
c.) behavior that allows the most reproduction
2.) Which of the following is least likely to be preserved as a fossil?
a.) a bone
b.) a leaf
c.) an eye
d.) feathers
3.) Darwin concluded from his observations of nature and readings that
a. ) an individual's likelihood of survival and reproduction are mostly due to chance and changes in the environment.
b.) Species do not appear to change over time.
c.) individuals compete with one another for limited resources and only the fittest reproduce.
4.) What is the difference between Density-Dependent and Density-Independent Factors on populations?
a.) density-dependent factors exert a greater influence when there are more individuals; density-independent exerts the same influence on all individuals regardless of their number
b.) density-dependent factors exert a greater influence on larger, more dense individuals; density-independent factors exert the same impact on individuals of all size
c.) density-dependent factors exert the same influence on all individuals regardless of their number; density-independent factors exert a greater influence when there are more individuals regardless of their number
5.) What is the potential genetic basis behind the complex behavior of Social Insects?
a.) populations of social insects display tremendous genetic variation
b.) social insects are genetically more like their parents than they are like their siblings
