Imagine that you take a journey through time, starting in the age of the dinosaurs. you see plants and animals as they turn into fossils, observe charles darwin take his voyage, and see him develop his theory. you also see signs of change in populations of organisms and their environments and observe the effects of mutations. now, imagine that you arrive back in the present day, and everyone whom you tell about your adventure does not believe you.

what evidence from the present day could you use to prove that you have taken this journey?

Determine if the following statement is true or false. if true, choose true. if false, choose the rewording that is true. according to the law of independent assortment, alleles for each gene are inherited together so that they always stay together. according to the law of independent assortment, offspring express a combination of their parents' traits. according to the law of independent assortment, alleles for a characteristic split during meiosis and combine during fertilization. true according to the law of independent assortment, alleles for each gene are inherited independently so that no two alleles stay together.

Humans are believed to have evolved in coastal regions in east africa. the region had an abundant supply of fish for early humanoids to eat. when scientists analyze the fads gene they see an interesting pattern. people whose families have lived in this area of east africa for generation show a high level of diversity in alleles for the fads gene. conversely, people whose families had migrated inland a moderate distance from sources of fish showed a much lower diversity for fads gene alleles. additionally, the fads alleles found in people whose family has lived inland for generation are almost all gene alleles which produce fads proteins with a high level of function and activity. how do anthropologists explain this?

What does the hardy-weinberg principle relate to? a. chances of survival of an organism b. frequency of alleles in a population c. natural selection in a species d. causes of evolution among organisms
