Chapter 20, Problem 6IQ
Summary Introduction
To determine: The consequences of the experimenters on fliesafter 20 generations that moved from dark towards the light.
Introduction: Animals use the different types of environmental conditions as their behaviorual modifications. For example, some organisms live in the presence of sunlight, whereas others live away from the direct sunlight. The organism that moves towards the light is called the positive phototaxis, and that moves against the direction of light are called the negative phototaxis.

- for clarification which is shown in the graph, the darker blue on the bar graph shows the mass(size) of the eggs and the striped blue represents the number of eggs which is also depicted in the graph. as far as the host plants, its just showing 3 different plants the butterflies were on which is represented by the a, b, and c, also located on the graph. The right side of the graph (mass) represents blue and the left side (number of eggs) represents the striped blue. part a: Describe the relationship between egg size and clutch size shown in Figure 1. (This is not asking about host plants, just about the butterfly eggs.) part b: Describe one possible reason for the relationship between egg size and clutch size observed. (This is not asking about the host plants, just about the butterfly eggs.) part c:Describe one realistic difference between host plants that might be affecting the numbers and sizes of eggs that a female lays on these plants.arrow_forwardPeppered Moth Experiment Researchers wanted to further test the idea that Peppered Moth populations around London really shifted due to their increased visibility to predators on dark trees. Researchers constructed two sample forest plots, each surrounded by bird-proof netting. In both enclosures they captured ALL the moths and ALL the birds. Trees in each enclosure were stripped of lichens so they ALL had dark bark. The treatments for each enclosure were as follows: Enclosure A: 50 dark-colored moths and 50 light-colored moths were released. Enclosure B: 50 dark-colored moths and 50 light-colored moths were released, plus 10 birds. Proportions of dark and light moths were monitored in each enclosure for 10 years by thorough sampling (sampling did not harm moths). Results for moth populations after 10 years are reported in the chart below. In addition, the bird population in Enclosure B was remained fairly constant over the 10 years and no birds appeared in Enclosure A.
