A farmer wants to make a better corn plant that produces more and bigger kernels. In the chart, information is provided on two ways organisms can change over time. Natural Selection Selective Breeding Humans are not involved in the evolution process Human intervention is involved More generations are involved in natural selection, so it is a slower process Selective breeding is a faster process Survival of the fittest increases species' chance for survival Adaptations may not necessarily improve survival Mutations that result in natural selection occur randomly The desirable charactenstics are artificially chosen What is the best way for the farmer to improve his crop and why? Use evidence from the table to support your reasoning. Please write in complete sentences.
Dog breeders use selective breeding, also called artificial selection, to maintain a closed genetic lineage, and produce offspring with desirable traits. This violates which Hardy-Weinberg condition? a reproduction b no mutation c random mating d no natural selection
Cana a change in the physical enviroment of a population result in evolution by natural slection?(hint: remember the peppered moth's camouflage and color changes of tree bark due to pollution)
