Textbook Question
Chapter 21, Problem 4S
Refer to figure 21.5, artificial selection in the laboratory. In this experiment, one population of Drosophila was selected for low numbers of bristles and the other for high numbers. Note that not only did the means of the populations change greatly in 35 generations, but also all individuals in both experimental populations lie outside the range of the initial population. What would happen if the direction of selection were reversed, such that a greater number of bristles was selected for in the low-bristle population, and vice versa? How would the rate of evolutionary change compare with that in the initial part of the experiment before selection was reversed?

(You may not need to use all four images. Stop counting when you reach 100 total cells.) After totaling the cells in each stage, calculate the percent of cells in each stage. (Divide total of stage by overall total of 100 and then multiply by 100 to obtain percentage.) Data Table 1Stage Totals PercentInterphase Mitosis: Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Cytokinesis Totals 100 100% To find the length of time whitefish blastula cells spend in each stage, multiply the percent (recorded as a decimal, in other words take the percent number and divide by 100) by 24 hours.
