1 Go to Section: Interest Grabber Yes, No, or Maybe Some traits, such as a widow’s peak, fall into neat categories: You either have a widow’s peak or you don’t. Other traits, such as height, aren’t so easy to categorize. Section 16-1

2 Go to Section: Interest Grabber continued 1.Make a list of physical traits that you think are influenced by genes. Then, write next to each trait whether you have the trait or not (e.g., a widow’s peak) or whether there are many variations of the trait (e.g., hair color). 2.Are most of the traits you listed clear-cut or are they mostly traits that have many variations? Which traits in your list are difficult to categorize? 3.Compare your list with that of another student. Did he or she think of any traits that you missed? Why do you think some traits are clear-cut, while others are not? Section 16-1

7 Go to Section: Interest Grabber... All the Help I Can Get Natural selection operates on traits in different ways. You might be able to predict which traits natural selection would favor if you think about the demands of an organism’s environment. Section 16-2 1. Choose an animal that you know something about, such as a deer, and write its name at the top of a sheet of paper. Then, divide your paper into two columns, and write the heading Trait in one column and Advantage in the other. 2.Under Trait, write in several of the animal’s traits. 3.Under Advantage, write in how you think the trait would be helpful to the animal.

15 Go to Section: Interest Grabber Country Cousin/City Cousin What happens when a population or group of living things is divided into two separate groups in two separate environments? To understand what goes on, think about someone who lives in another part of the United States or in another country. Section 16-3 1.Make a list of everyday things that this person encounters that you don’t. For example, does he or she eat different kinds of food? Does he or she live in a climate different from yours? 2.All humans are the same species. What might happen if groups of humans were separated for millions of years in very different environments, such as those you have just described?

19 Section 1 Answers Interest Grabber Answers 1.Make a list of physical traits that you think are influenced by genes. Then, write next to each trait whether you have the trait or not (e.g., a widow’s peak) or whether there are many variations of the trait (e.g., hair color). Students’ answers will include dimples and detached earlobes. 2.Are most of the traits you listed clear-cut or are they mostly traits that have many variations? Which traits in your list are difficult to categorize? Most traits listed likely have many variations. 3.Compare your list with that of another student. Did he or she think of any traits that you missed? Why do you think some traits are clear-cut, while others are not? Some students may suggest that patterns of inheritance for traits with many variations (polygenic) are more complex than for clear-cut (single-gene) ones.

20 Section 2 Answers Interest Grabber Answers 1. Choose an animal that you know something about, such as a deer, and write its name at the top of a sheet of paper. Then, divide your paper into two columns, and write the heading Trait in one column and Advantage in the other. Animal choices should be sufficiently familiar that students can describe several traits. 2. Under Trait, write in several of the animal’s traits. Students should list traits such as size, color, and specialized behavior. 3. Under Advantage, write in how you think the trait would be helpful to the animal. Students should indicate that adaptive value is clearer for some traits than for others. For example, white-tailed deer raise their tails upon sensing a predator. This may be an alarm signal for other deer, or it may induce the predator to chase the now-conspicuous deer.

21 Section 3 Answers Interest Grabber Answers 1.Make a list of everyday things that this person encounters that you don’t. For example, does he or she eat different kinds of food? Does he or she live in a climate different from yours? Students’ lists should include several social/environmental factors. 2.All humans are the same species. What might happen if groups of humans were separated for millions of years in very different environments, such as those you have just described? Students may understand that humans would evolve separately in response to different environmental pressures.
