Question

Name: Section: POST-LABORATORY QUIZ NATURAL SELECTION 1. How does natural selection cause evolution? 2. Why don't all populations of a species have the same adaptations? (Hint: Think about the exercise where you used pipe cleaners as prey animals.) 3. Consider the data in Table 12. TABLE 12 Pipe Cleaner Colors Generation Green Brown White Which individuals have the highest fitness in this population? 4. The pipe cleaners in the simulation of natural selection by predators gave birth to offspring that were the same color. Color in pipe cleaner populations is thus analogous to traits in natural populations that have a basis. 115

2) Why don't all population of a species have the same adaptations?

3) Consider the data in the table, which individuals have the highest fitness in the population?

4) Color in pipe cleaner populations is thus analogous to traits in natural population that have a genetic basis.
