Question

B. before versus after meiosis 0 C. before versus after gamete formation E What is the difference between microevolution and macroevolution? A. microevolution is small changes within a species, macroevolution is the formation of new species C B. microevolution is small changes within a species, macroevolution is large changes within a species C. microevolution is slight changes that make a new species, macroevolution is large changes that make a new species What was the difference between the theories of Lamarck and Darwin? OA. Lamarck hypothesized that that natural selection favored certain traits; Darwin hypothesized acquired characteristics were inherited OB. Lamarck hypothesized that acquired characteristics were inherited; Darwin hypothesized that natural selection favored certain traits E C. Lamarck hypothesized that natural selection did not favor certain traits; Darwin hypothesized that natural selection favored certain tr E Buffalo were hunted to near extinction, but numbers have recovered. However, they have decreased genetic diversity. This is A. a founder effect B. a bottleneck C. gene flow E: If an environment changes rapidly, organisms with _ will be more likely to survive and reproduce. A. the correct allele frequency B. existing neutral mutations OC. existing beneficial mutations

Explanation / Answer

1. A.

within a single population, Microevolution occurs on a small scale, while macroevolution occurs on an order that exceeds the confines of a single species.

2. B.

Lamarck's theory states that Traits defined by DNA/genes are transferred onto offspring. Traits obtained during a lifetime are not.

3. A.

the founder effect is the loss of genetic variation that transpires when a new population is formed by the small number of individuals from a larger population

4. C.
