Which of the following is not true of the punctuated equilibrium theory?
1.
a. it was inspired in part by patterns observed in the fossil record.
b. it suggests that subgroups diverge and evolve at about equal and constant rates.
c. it suggests that most species undergo little phenotypic change during most of their evolutionary duration.
d. it proposes that most evolutionary change is concentrated in relatively brief episodes of change.
e. it appears to be well supported by the fossil record.

The following is not true of the punctuated equilibrium theory is ‘It suggests that subgroups diverge and evolve at about equal and constant rates.’ The answer is letter B. the statements ‘It was inspired in part by patterns observed in the fossil record’, ‘It suggests that most species undergo little phenotypic change during most of their evolutionary duration’, ‘It proposes that most evolutionary change is concentrated in relatively brief episodes of change’ and ‘It appears to be well supported by the fossil record’ best supports the punctuated equilibrium theory.

chromosomes carry the genetic information for organisms. also, chromatin is the thread like dna which is located in the nucleus of an organism.

if the type of the food available changes, then the frequency of beak types will change, because birds with beaks more suited to the available food will be more successful over time.
