1. A population of snails that has striped and unstriped individuals has recently moved into a new region. Birds break the snails open by dropping them onto the rocks. The birds eat the bodies of the snails and leave the shells. In one area, researchers counted both live snails and broken shells. The data are summarized below. Number of Snail Shells Striped Shells Unstriped Shells Snails living snails broken (dead) 264 296 486 277 snails a) Analyze the data. Which form of snail (striped or unstriped) is more likely to be caught by the birds for food? Explain how you know. b) Suggest a hypothesis to explain what is happening to the snails. c) Predict and explain how the frequencies of striped and unstriped individuals in the population might change over many generations.
QUESTION 7 You are working on an undergraduate project, studying an insect species. A recent study showed that the pigmentation pattern used for camouflage is made by an enzyme K. However, it has been shown that, when compared to the Kk individuals, the KK homozygotes would have a higher chance of dying from pigment overdose before growing up, while the kk individuals can easily fall to predation before becoming adults. In fact, when compared to the Kk individuals, the estimated selection coefficients for KK and kk are 0.25 and 0.5, respectively. You are interested in what would happen to these alleles. At present, you have conducted a population survey and have 1000 larvae in your collection. Among them, 360 are KK, 480 Kk and 160 kk. How many larvae would survive to adulthood? O 170 O 417 583 750 830 (Following up on Question 7.) What would be the KK genotype frequency at the adult stage? O 0.090 O 0.270 O 0.325 O 0.360 O 0.529 QUESTION 8

Which variable increases the likelihood of allopatric speciation taking place more quickly? a. lower rate of mutation b. longer distance between divided groups c. increased instances of hybrid formation d. equivalent numbers of individuals in each population
3. Can the populations make hybrid offspring? Is there evidence that individuals from the popula- tions interbreed to make hybrid offspring? If so, are the offspring plentiful, healthy, and able to reproduce? Example: Lions and tigers don't normally mate in nature, but in captivity they sometimes produce hybrid offspring. These offspring are rare, short-lived, and unable to reproduce. Evidence: Healthy offspring Offspring are rare or less likely to reproduce No Consider the evidence together. Do you think the populations make healthy hybrid offspring? offspring N/A 1 2 3 4 5
