Question

Concerning Evolution, match the term with the definition.

Microevolution, Gene pool, Evolution, adaptation

A) used to indicate that a population has undergone changes in the alleles in the gene pool over time

B) a trait that increases the chance of an individual surviving

C.) change in the line of descent

D.) Sum fall genetic information ina population

Answer 1

Ans:

Microevolution - A) used to indicate that a population has undergone changes in the alleles in the gene pool over time.

Gene pool - D) Sum fall genetic information in a population

Evolution- C) change in the line of descent

Adaptation- B) a trait that increases the chance of an individual surviving

Explanation: Microevolution is the change in DNA sequence and allelic frequencies with in species over time. This changes occurs due to mutation, gene flow, selection and genetic drift. Gene pool is the sum total of all the alleles or all the genetic information present in the population. Evolution is the change of characteristics of all the descent over the generations. Adaptation is the any alteration of characters or traits that enable the organism becomes better fitted to survive in a particular environment.
