ganism (a virus or bacterium) from an animal species
into humans?

2. What is the distinction between a theory and hypoth- A theory explains
esis? a large range
of patterns and
data, and has
been well support-
ed by many empir-
ical tests, whereas
a hypothesis has
not

3. Does natural selection ALWAYS result in evolution? NO

4. Can natural selection occur without evolution? Yes

5. Can evolution occur without natural selection? Yes

6. Does natural selection operate on phenotypes? Yes

7. True or False: The expected frequency of any het- True
erozygote is two times the product of the respective
allele frequencies in a population following H-W as-
sumptions.

8. True or False: The expected frequency of any ho- True
mozygote is the square of the allele frequency in a
population following H-W assumptions.

9. True or False: The expected heterozygosity is True
1-sum(pi^2).

10. True or False: A failure to detect a departure from H-W False-- cannot as-
equilibrium guarantees that the population satisfies sume!
all model assumptions.

11. True or False: Natural selection requires phenotypic True
variation among individuals.

12. True or False: Fitness refers to the average reproduc- True
tion success of a particular phenotype or genotype.

13. True or False: Any change in allele frequencies can False
be taken as evidence of natural selection.

14. True or False: Selection occurs at the level of the True
phenotype.

15. True or False: A response to selection requires the True
some of the phenotypic variation has a genetic basis.

16. The process of evolution via natural selection re- 1) limiting re-
quires several things, including...? (4) sources, and
therefore, some
kind of competi-
tion for them
2) phenotypic vari-
ation among indi-
viduals in some
trait or traits that
influences how
well organisms
compete
3) a genetic basis
to the phenotypic
variation
4) an iteration of
that process over
multiple genera-
tions

17. What is one thing that the process of evolution via Dominance of
natural selection does NOT require? one allele over
the other (consid-
er incomplete or
codominance)

A formal sci-
entific description
of processes that
produce patterns

19. What statement is true in regards to thinking about Patterns could
how scientists study both patterns in nature, and the have multiple dis-
processes that underlie those patterns? tinct causes, so
multiple hypothe-
ses about the
processes under-
laying a pattern
are advanced, and
then experiments
or models are
used to try to eval-
uate their relative
importance in ex-
plaining the pat-
tern

20. The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium principle yields 1) If no evolution-
what conclusions? (2) ary processes are
operating, then al-
lele frequencies in
a population will
not change
2) If the allele fre-
quencies in a pop-
ulation are given
by p and q, the
genotype frequen-
cies are given by
p^2, 2pq, and q^2

21. A substitution of adenine for guanine could results in 1) a transition
what? (4) 2) a synonymous
mutation
3) a non synony-
