Question 3 (5 points)
What happens to a population when it's larger than the available resources can accommodate?
Question 3 options:
The environment will produce more nutrients and resources to support the population.
All of the organisms in that population will die.
The organisms who need fewer nutrients will support the organisms who need more.
The organisms not well suited for that environment won't survive.

Question 4 options:
Homologous
Analogous
Archaic
Vestigial
Question 5 (5 points)
What did the peppered moths signify in evolution?
Question 5 options:
Organisms are constantly changing, but they're only driven by internal changes.
Environmental factors can change which organism is best suited for survival.
The environment always has a detrimental effect on organisms.
Human behavior is the main driver behind artificial selection.

A fossil record for whales demonstrates the evolution from one whale into two new whale species. Why is this supporting evolution?
Question 6 options:
The fossil record shows that the structure of the whale is changing over time, which is a requirement of evolution.
The fossil record shows that there are large splits in the development of new species, supporting macroevolution.
The fossil record shows that multiple species of whales have converged into one species because of best fit.
The fossil record captures every change in a species that leads to a new species.

Mutations occur through the intentional alteration of amino acids.
Mutations occur randomly through changes in DNA.
Mutations occur as directed responses to changes in the environment.
