A biologist observes that a species of stick insects on a remote island has three different color traits, almost equally distributed among the
population. One phenotype is dark green, a second is light green, and a third is light green with dark green stripes. Over a decade, the biologist
observes that the dark green phenotype becomes the most abundant, making up nearly 70% of the population. Which statement is the best
explanation for this phenomenon?
None of the color characteristics are undergoing selection at the present time.
A
B.
C
D.
A founder effect has resulted in an increase in the numbers of the dark green phenotype.
The dark green phenotype benefits the Insects' survival, making them more likely to reproduce.
The insects with the dark green color tralt have developed an r-selection strategy for survival.

Where does all the water go? according to the environmental protection agency (epa), in a typical wetland environment, 39% of the water is outflow; 46% is seepage; 7% evaporates; and 8% remains as water volume in the ecosystem (reference: united states environmental protection agency case studies report 832-r-93-005). chloride compounds as residuals from residential areas are a problem for wetlands. suppose that in a particular wetland environment the following concentrations (mg/l) of chloride compounds were found: outflow, 60.4; seepage, 73.7; remaining due to evaporation, 26.4; in the water volume, 46.8. (a) compute the weighted average of chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) for this ecological system. (round your answer to one decimal place.) mg/l (b) suppose the epa has established an average chlorine compound concentration target of no more than 58 mg/l. does this wetlands system meet the target standard for chlorine compound concentration? yes. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is too high. yes. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is lower than the target. no. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is lower than the target. no. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is too high.
