Topic: NATURAL SELECTION ACTIVITY
Simulate a case of natural selection in a predator-prey situation.
STEP 1 Gather your materials. You should have:
. 1 fork, 1 knife, 1 spoon, and a length of tape (each will be used toestablish the distinct predator "feeding apparatuses")· 4 cups (each will serve as a distinct predator's "mouth")· 3 types of prey (such as popcorn, macaroni, and kidney beans)· 1 clearly delineated habitat (such as a table, a box, or a roped-off areaof ground). 1 timer that allows for counting by seconds (such as a watch or cellphone)
STEP 2 Set up the predators. There is variation in predatory feeding apparatuses in this population. You will choose one of the available predator feeding apparatuses: fork, spoon, knife, or four fingers (with your thumb taped to your hand so that you cannot use it). You will also take a cup, which will represent the predator's mouth. Your goal will be to use your feeding apparatus to collect food and put it inyour mouth.
STEP 3 Set up the…

- Consider the figure attached. A student in a course on intelligent design theory claims that the graph in part (a) shows that losing the ability to respire actually is adaptive for yeast cells living in small populations. Please read the incomplete sentence that appears immediately below, assess as possible completions the lowercase-Roman-numeral-labelled statements that follow, and click each uppercase-letter-labelled response that is presented below and completes accurately the sentence. An astute student in an evolution course would respond that i. the graph in part (a) shows that selection among mitochondria within yeast cells can lead to fixation for traits that decrease mean fitness for that yeast population. ii. the student in the course on intelligent design is wrong; the yeast cells in the small population group retained completely the ability to respire, as they otherwise would have been unable to harvest energy. iii. a property (e.g., inability to respire) that is…arrow_forwardQ.

- C1. Compliment Connect Comment Question Generalized and specialized characteristics refer to different types of traits observed in organisms, particularly in the context of adaptation to specific environments or ecological niches. Generalized Characteristics: Generalized characteristics are traits that are relatively simple, flexible, and adaptable to a wide range of environments. Organisms with generalized characteristics are often referred to as generalists because they can thrive in diverse habitats and ecological conditions. Examples of generalized characteristics include a broad diet, moderate body size, generalist feeding habits, and behavioral flexibility. These traits allow organisms to exploit a variety of resources and habitats, enhancing their adaptive potential in unpredictable or changing environments. Specialized Characteristics: Specialized characteristics are traits that are highly adapted to specific environmental conditions or ecological niches. Organisms with…arrow_forwardDirections: Using evolutionary relationships, search for animals that are closely related to each other. Start from a base species and then branch out to related animals.

(1:39) Which of the following correctly explains why the black trait rose from 2% to 95% in moths during the Industrial Revolution in England? A. As the soot concentration increased in the air, dark-colored moths were better equipped to find their mates, making it more likely for them to thrive and multiply. B. As trees became darker, dark-colored moths were less likely to be found and eaten by birds, making it more likely for them to thrive and multiply. C. As the darker trees made conditions more favorable for darker species of moths, dark-colored moths ate light-colored moths more often. 3.

- Q:How are complex structures formed through evolution? Small, incremental changes Preadaptations Non-random selection on random variation All of the abovearrow_forwardTopic: Galapagos Finches Darwin’s readings took him to a predictive theory of how species might change with time: what later thinkers have called microevolution. Darwin’s philosophical worldview then took him beyond his evidence to a conviction that environmental constraints could create whole new structures and organisms. Soon Darwin’s theory of macroevolution replaced the Creator with an environment that could create solely by constraint. For your thread: According to Chapter 13 section 13.1, define microevolution and macroevolution. The Galapagos islands have a great diversity of landscapes – from lush vegetation to nearly barren lava fields yet the Galapagos Finches survive on each island. How can this be explained? Using the varying bills of the Galapagos Finches in figure 13.3 and additional research, explain how microevolution is evidenced.arrow_forward*Define words *I don’t want pen & paper explanation photo( because I never understand the writing) *if you’re using pen & paper pls write clearly *Also short explanations pls tutor write too much explanationsarrow_forward
