  4. The barriers to successful interbreeding between individuals of different species in the same community is referred to as: • Sexual dependency • Reproductive isolation • Geographic isolation • Adaptive radiation • Balanced dimorphism

  5. B. Reproductive isolation Barriers to interbreeding are caused by reproductive isolation.

  6. In a population that is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the frequency of a particular allele a is 0.4. What is the percentage of the population heterozygous for this allele? • 4% • 16% • 32% • 48% • 64%

  7. D. 48% The question provides q, and so the other allele, p, is 1-q or 0.6. The heterozygous genotype is represented by 2pq, totaling 48%

  8. Human newborns usually weigh between 6-8 pounds: type of selection? A. Stabilizing B. Disruptive C. DirectionalD. Artificial

  9. A.stabilizing

  10. According to Hardy-Weinberg, the dominant allele is represented by: • p • q • p2 • q2 • 2pq

  11. p • According to Hardy-Weinberg, p is the dominant allele, and q is the recessive allele

  12. Miller’s experiment demonstrated that a discharge of sparks through a mixture of gases could result in organic compounds. Miller used all of the following gases except: • Methane • Ammonia • Water • Oxygen • Hydrogen

  13. D. Oxygen Remember, scientists believe oxygen was not available in the early atmosphere. It was not introduced until the development of photosynthetic bacteria

  14. The differences in sparrow songs among sympatric species are examples of: • Geographic isolation • Convergent evolution • Parallel evolution • Physiological isolation • Behavioral isolation

  15. E. Behavioral isolation A bird’s song is a behavior; therefore, this is an example of behavioral isolation

  16. Darwin’s finches is an example of: A. Founder effect B. Adaptive radiationC. Convergent evolution

  17. B. Adaptive Radiation

  18. The fitness of an organism refers to its ability to: • Find nutrients and reproduce • Be the largest of its kind • Be the strongest of its kind • Find water • Grow adaptations to environmental conditions

  19. Find nutrients and reproduce • An organism’s relative fitness is directly measured by the number of viable offspring it produces

  20. Which of the following pairs of structures are analogous? • Foreleg of a cat and foreleg of a dog • Wing of a bird and wings of a penguin • Wing of a bird and wing of an insect • Arm of a human and flipper of a dolphin • Heart of a human and heart of a whale

  21. C. Wing of a bird and wing of an insect

  22. If you were looking for fossils, you would look for an area with: • A lot of sedimentary rock • A lot of igneous rock • A lot of metamorphic rock • Large ice fields • A lot of trees that produce amber

  23. A lot of sedimentary rock • Sedimentary rock is formed by the continuous addition of layers of rock. Thus, it would be most conducive to the formation of fossils

  24. Comparing the DNA of proteins of organisms to investigate relatedness is looking at: • Comparative anatomy • Comparative embryology • Comparative biochemistry • Fossils • Biogeography

  25. C. Comparative biochemistry DNA and proteins are the chemical components of a cell

  26. Which of the following is an aspect of punctuated equilibrium? • It occurs over very long periods of time • Darwin proposed this explanation • Long periods of stasis are punctuated by times of rapid change • All of the intermediate forms are likely • One species graded into a new species

  27. C. Long periods of stasis are punctuated by times of rapid change

  28. The founder effect and the bottleneck effect are special cases of • Mutations • Gene flow • Non-random mating • Genetic Drift • Natural Selection

  29. D. Genetic Drift

  30. If populations of different species remain isolated from each other, ________ did not occur • Mutations • Gene flow • Non-random mating • Genetic drift • Natural Selection

  31. B. Gene flow Immigration and emigration are examples of gene flow, and require direct contact between members of different populations

  32. Which of the following isolating mechanisms is based on breeding periods of the species? • Habitat isolation • Temporal isolation • Behavioral isolation • Mechanical isolation • Gamete isolation

  33. B. Temporal isolation Temporal isolation deals with barriers of time and seasons

  34. The distribution of fossils of similar kinds found on different continents is best explained by: • Divergent evolution • Adaptive radiation • Mass extinctions • Continental drift • Disruptive selection

  35. D. Continental drift

  36. Which of the following best explains the rapid formation of many new species after a mass extinction? • Adaptive radiation • Divergent evolution • Disruptive selection • Plate tectonics • Microevolution

  37. Adaptive radiation • The key words in the question are “the rapid formation of many new species”

  38. The tailbone and pelvic bones of a whale are an example of a(n): • Analogous structure • Convergent evolution • Vestigial structure • D. Adaptive radiation • E. Balanced polymorphism

  39. C. Vestigial structure Whales have no use for a tailbone or pelvic bone, and this structure is most likely the remnant of a common ancestor

  40. A mule is a hybrid between a horse and donkey. The offspring is viable, yet is unable to reproduce. This is an example of: • Temporal isolation • B. Reduced hybrid fertility • C. Gametic isolation • D. Habitat isolation

  41. B. Reduced hybrid fertility A mule is unable to reproduce and so is infertile. The others are all examples of prezygotic barriers.

  42. Humans breed cows to produce 100 pints of milk, this is an example of what type of selection: A. Stabilizing B. Disruptive C. Directional D. Artificial

  43. Answer! D. Artificial selection

  44. The population of moths in England changed from black to white in fifty years because of changes in the environment, this is an example of what type of selection: A. Stabilizing B. Disruptive C. DirectionalD. Artificial

  45. Answer! C. Directional selection

  46. In one region, there exist two distinct types of one species of snake, with few intermediate types, this is an example of which type of selection: A. Stabilizing B. Disruptive C. DirectionalD. Artificial

  47. Answer! B. disruptive

  48. Genetic drift is affiliated with which of the following: A. Founder effect B. Adaptive radiationC. Convergent evolution

  49. A. Founder effect

  50. The development of similarities between unrelated groups resulting from adaptation to similar environments is which of the following: A. Founder effect B. Adaptive radiationC. Convergent evolution
