BIOSCI101 Evolution - Lecture 3

Questão 1 de 6

1

Which of these is NOT true in regards to Neo-Darwinism?

Selecione uma das seguintes:

  • Ample genetic variation arises and is contained in
    populations.

  • Evolution in populations is influenced by natural
    selection and is characterised by changes in gene
    frequencies.

  • Adaptive genetic variation produces small stepwise
    changes in phenotypes, which accumulate
    gradually over long periods of time.

  • The divergence of geographical isolated
    populations is unimpeded and gradually leads to
    speciation.

  • The gradual accumulation of genetic differences,
    via natural selection, results in new genera and
    families of organisms (macroevolution).

  • This hypothesis predicts that over generations a freely
    mating population will give rise to a uniform population
    of individuals.

What term are these definitions defining?

– changes in allele frequencies in a
population.
– a group of individuals of the same
species that live in the same area and interbreed.
– is the sum of all the alleles of all genes
of all individuals in the population.

Explicação

Questão 3 de 6

1

If only one allele exists at a particular locus or gene in
a population, the allele is said to be fixed.

Selecione uma das opções:

  • VERDADEIRO
  • FALSO

Explicação

Questão 4 de 6

1

If there are two or more alleles for a gene in a
population, individuals will be either homozygous or
heterozygous.

Selecione uma das opções:

  • VERDADEIRO
  • FALSO

Explicação

1

Which of these are TRUE, with respect to the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium?

Selecione uma ou mais das seguintes:

  • Population genetics defines evolution as changes in
    allele frequencies.

  • In a population that is not evolving, allele and
    genotype frequencies will remain constant from one
    generation to the next.

  • A non-changing population is said to be in Hardy-Weinberg
    equilibrium.

  • The Hardy-Weinberg equation allows us to calculate
    the expected genotype frequencies given the
    observed allele frequencies.

Explicação

Questão 6 de 6

1

Match the condition for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium with its definition.

1. . The gene pool is modified if mutations change alleles.
2. . If individuals mate with a subset of the population, genotype frequencies change.
3. . Differences in survival and reproduction of individuals with different genotypes can alter allele frequencies.
4. . The smaller the population, the more likely that allele frequencies will fluctuate by change.
5. . Movement of individuals (alleles) in and out of a population can alter allele frequencies.
