Imagine that a researcher performs an experiment examining the effects of nutrition on memory. each subject is randomly assigned to one of three groups: high-protein diet; high-fiber diet; standard diet (control). after a month on this diet, each subject undergoes a memory test. the experimenter finds that memory performance is somewhat better for the high-protein and high-fiber groups than for the control group, but the effect of nutrition is not statistically significant. thus, the experimenter accepts the null hypothesis. the experimenter hypothesizes that the effect was weak because the experiment was only 1 month long. a new experiment is then conducted that is identical to the first, except with 3 months on the diet. now a significant effect of nutrition is found. from these two experiments, the experimenter is justified in concluding that: [select two that are correct]

Suppose a point mutation, such as a change from an adenine to a guanine, occurs in the genome of a human sperm cell. the mutation could occur in any region of a gene. the effect of the mutation on the phenotype of the offspring will be determined by where the mutation occurs and its effect on the final gene product. in which of the following scenarios could the mutation alter the phenotype of the offspring? select all of the scenarios that apply the mutation occurs in the promoter and affects the rate of gene transcription. the mutation results in a new, dominant allele the mutation occurs in a portion of an intron not responsible for exon splicing the mutation occurs in a gene that controls development and alters differentiation of a cell type during development. the mutation occurs in a codon and alters the function of the final protein e mutation occurs in a codon, and the amino acid sequence of the final protein is unchanged.

The upper forelimbs of humans and bats have fairly similar skeletal structures, whereas the correspondingbones in whales have very different shapes and proportions. however, genetic data suggest that all three kindsof organisms diverged from a common ancestor at about the same time. which of the following is the mostlikely explanation for these data? a) humans and bats evolved by natural selection, and whales evolved by lamarckian mechanisms.b) forelimb evolution was adaptive in people and bats, but not in whales.c) natural selection in an aquatic environment resulted in significant changes to whale forelimb anatomy.d) genes mutate faster in whales than in humans or bats.e) whales are not properly classified as mammals.
