Suppose that two researchers studying at the galápagos islands find finches with a beak shape that has never been observed before. a random mutation in the gene encoding an important protein in the finch beak results in the unique beak shape. finches with this mutation have long, narrow beaks that allow them to pick grubs out of logs. grubs are common on this island, and no other finches can eat them, so this mutation is highly favorable. starting with a dna mutation, arrange the events to explain how the new beak shape became common in the population.

Suppose that on a small island off the coast of scotland, 32 percent of the population has blue eyes, which means that these individuals must be homozygous for the blue eye color gene (bb). the only other eye color found on the island is brown, and individuals that are homozygous for the brown eye color gene (bb) or heterozygous (bb) will have brown eyes because brown is the dominant gene. assume this population is in hardy-weinberg equilibrium. if 100 babies are born next year, how many of these would you expect to have brown eyes and be heterozygous? a. 58 b. 49 c. 29 d. 43
