Question 12 Which of the following scenarios is the best example of evolution? options:A population of mice lives in a forest. A species of tree is introducedwhich reduces the amounts of nuts available for the mice. There does notappear to be a change in the mice over time.A mouse is nearly caught in a mouse trap. The mouse learns through thatexperience to stay away from mouse traps and teaches her offspring toavoid mousetraps. Mice are no longer caught in mousetraps.A particular species of flowers in a meadow were pollinated by bees forseveral hundred years. Over time, fewer and fewer bees can be found inthe meadow. Some hummingbirds are attracted to a few of the plantspecies with brightly colored flowers. Over time, more of the plantvarieties now have brightly colored flowers.A tidal wave removes all of the grass on an island.Question 13 How does environmental diversity play a role in natural selection whenliving things find themselves in environments that are different fromtheir native environments? options:The members of the population that possess the slight variation intraits that cause them to thrive in their new environment will reproduceothers of their kind, while those with trait variations that are notfavorable to the new environment will not survive.The members of the population that possess the slight variation intraits that causes them to fare poorly in their new environment willreproduce others of their kind, while those with trait variations thatare favorable to the new environment will not survive.All members of the population will adapt to the change in environmentand will continue to produce others with the same variations in traitsthat they presently possess.All members of the population will adapt to the change in environmentbut will produce offspring that will adapt to the new environment. Thenext generations will stop carrying the unfavorable traits.Question 14Which of the following are examples of diversity in evolution? Choose all that apply.options:A single bird is a part of a family of birds that consists of 22 species.Over 400 species of dogs came from one species.An estimated 2 million named living organisms came from the same ancestor.There are over 300,000 types of plants on the earth.Question 15Elements are composed of a single type of atom. options:TrueFalse
