Q

Real populations rarely reach a state of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. What explains this observation?

Q

Which of the following best contrasts concepts of gene pool and genotype?

A

A gene pool refers to all the possessed by a population; a genotype refers to the genes possessed by an individual.

17
Q

What is the best definition of evolution?

A

Changes in the allele frequencies in a population over time.

18
Q

What would be the best to distinguish groups of bilaterally symmetric animals?

A

Type of embryonic development (either protostome or deuterostome)

19
Q

What violates the conditions needed for a population to remain in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium?

A

Organisms carefully choose their mates. Mates should be choose at random.
