1.Describe the ways that gene number or gene position on a chromosome, might be altered? What implications might that have on evolution? 2.What are the conditions that must be met for a population to stay in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? What happens if these conditions are not met? 3.What type of selection would most likely benefit heterozygous individuals and which will result in a population losing alleles: directional, disruptive, or stabilizing? Explain. 4.How might frequency dependent selection and the heterozygote advantage help maintain multiple alleles in a population? 5.Describe the theory of evolution by natural selection. Include terms like "excess reproduction, genetically distinct offspring, changing allele frequencies, and adaptive traits".

25. Answer the following questions based on the facts and inferences related to natural selection that we discussed in class, as well as the simulations you performed with the Evodots lab. If individuals vary, and variation affects survival and reproduction, and variation is heritable: there will be natural selection resulting in evolution. there will be no natural selection, but there will be evolution due to natural selection. there will be natural selection, but it will not result in evolution. there will be no natural selection, and there will be no evolution due to natural selection.   24.

1. What is true of natural selection? The only way to eliminate harmful mutations is through natural selection. Mutations occur at random; natural selection can preserve and distribute beneficial mutations. Natural selection creates beneficial mutations. Natural selection is a random process. All changes saved
