ROUND 2
1. A pesticide is sprayed, yet some beetles in the area still thrive and reproduce. What is the best explanation of this? A. These beetles were smart enough to avoid the spray. B. Upon contact with the spray, these beetles produced an enzyme to break the spray down and allow them to live. C. Upon contact with the spray, these beetles developed a resistance to the pesticide. D. These beetles have a genetic variation which leaves them resistant to the pesticide.

5. If the beneficial genes are passed to their offspring, then which of the following will most likely increase? a. The frequency of the genes in one individual b.The frequency of the genes in the population
5. If the beneficial genes are passed to their offspring, then which of the following will most likely increase? a. The frequency of the genes in one individual b.The frequency of the genes in the population
There are 500 people in a population. 28 are homozygous recessive. What is the number of heterozygous people? 180 (rounded)
ROUND 3
1. If evolution occurs rapidly in a species because one extreme variation is more favorable, which type of natural selection is most likely in effect? A. convergent B. stabilizing C. directional D. disruptive
A. convergent B. stabilizing C. directional D. disruptive 1. If evolution occurs rapidly in a species because one extreme variation is more favorable, which type of natural selection is most likely in effect?
2. If the frequency of a recessive allele is 23%, the frequency of the dominant allele would be? 77%
3. Why is the Founder Effect a mechanism for change over time?
Because the newly established smaller populations have different allelic frequencies that the original population.
4. If the frequency of a recessive genotype is 19%, the frequency of the recessive allele would be (rounded)? 44%
5. Type of natural selection that favors the most common organism of the species?
Stabilizing
