3. Explain the process by which the modern Northeast (Maryland) coyote population changed from the historic (North Dakota) population over the past 70 years. In your response, be sure to include: • Identify specific environmental factors which have/will impact the coyote population • Describe traits that would most likely be beneficial for a coyote's survival in the deciduous forest • Explain how genetic variation is related to changes in the coyote population over time Include evidence of a change in the distribution of traits over time in response to a new environment .

5) A mutant red coat color allele (Yr) arises in island B and is present in the adult population in a heterozygous individual in the population of 117 adults of year 2000. Yr is recessive to the other alleles at the Y locus. What is the probability (p) that, purely by the action of genetic drift, the allele will rise to fixation (reaching a frequency of 1.0) at some time in the future? (A) 0.0 < p < 0.2 (B) 0.2 < p < 0.4 (C) 0.4 < p < 0.6 (D) 0.6 < p < 0.8 (E) 0.8 < p < 1.05 6) For the same genetic scenario, what if the single red allele arose in the island A and was present by 1990 in a heterozygous individual, one of a population 12 individuals. Would this red mutant allele have a better or worse chance of rising to fixation relative to the island B population of problem 5? (A) red allele more likely to reach fixation in A island beginning in 1990 compared to B island beginning in…
(3) TRUE OR FALSE: it is thought that populations with more genetic diversity will be less likely to persist because there exist fewer incidents of pure genetic alignment which are always more robust in the cases of environmental change.

Please help with the following: The United Nations predicts that the human global population is most likely to stabilize at 9 billion within the next 100 years. If the population level remains at this level for the next 10 KY, what would you predict about the strength of selection required to overcome the effects of genetic drift, compared to today’s values? A. It would be the same. B. The future strength of selection would be greater than today’s values. C. Not enough information. D. Today’s strength of selection would be greater than in the future

40. Which of the following microevolutionary forces act upon existing variation within a breeding population? gene flow and natural selection natural selection and genetic drift gene flow and mutation genetic drift , gene flow, and mutation natural selection, mutation, genetic drift, and gene flow
For these experiment assume allele A = red, allele a = white . There are three flower colors (phenotypes and genotypes) for this species where AA=red, Aa = pink, aa = white. • A population of Four O-Clocks is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and no evolutionary forces are acting on the population. Bees are introduced into the population. Individual bees only visit a single color of flower so that red flowers only mate with red flowers, pink with pink, and white with white. Assume you start out with a population where the frequency of the A allele is 0.2 and the population is initially in Hardy Weinberg equilibrium. What would the frequency of the Aa genotype be in the the next generation where positive assortative mating is 100% (i.e. there is no random mating)?
