Statements Forces of Evolution 1. Giraffes developed long necks to reach food sources higher up in rees, so members of the giraffe population who didn't develop a long neck died out. 2. Pollen from trees is blown far, far away to a completely separate group of trees and pollinates their flowers, producing trees with characteristics of each population. 3. A certain type of plant can produce blue or yellow flowers. During a fire, many yellow flowers are destroyed, and now since blue is he dominant allele, the plant reproduces plants that only produce plue flowers. genetic Page

Question
Let the FORCE be with you! Directions: Identify the FORCES/MECHANISMS of Evolution describe in the following statements below. Write your answers on a separate sheet of paper. Statements Forces of Evolution 1. Giraffes developed long necks to reach food sources higher up in trees, so members of the giraffe population who didn't develop a long | neck died out. 2. Pollen from trees is blown far, far away to a completely separate group of trees and pollinates their flowers, with genetic producing trees characteristics of each population. 3. A certain type of plant can produce blue or yellow flowers. During a fire, many yellow flowers are destroyed, and now since blue is the dominant allele, the plant reproduces plants that only produce | blue flowers. 10 |Page 4. When the plants that grow back on previously damaged land through secondary succession are different from what was originally there. 5. Make an organism in a population produce enzymes that will allow them to eat certain food materials. 6. Some birds with shorter beaks enter into a population of birds with much longer beaks, resulting in the hatching of birds with medium-sized beaks. 7. A mother with blue eyes and a father with brown eyes can have children with brown or blue eyes. If brown is the dominant allele, even though there is a 50% chance of having blue eyes, they might have all children with brown eyes by chance. 8. Certain lizards in one region developed longer leg bones to help them climb up during periods of flood and to escape predators in the ground; shorter-legged lizards of the same population died out until only the lizards with the long legs survived. 9. The more a pesticide is used, the greater the chance that the insects targeted will develop immunity to the chemical. 10. If you save seeds from a squash or cucumber plant and the resulting fruit does not look like the fruit from the original plant.
