Answer anyone you know the answer to please thank you that’ll be very nice of you
1) after many generation an insect species evolved resistance to a popular pesticide. This occurred because spraying pesticides
A) killed most of the insect in the population
B) caused mutation in the insect species gene pool
C) caused another insect species to go extinct
D).selected for insects that were able to survive and reproduce
2) An herbicide killed 99% of a weed population. which of the following is the best biological explanation for whysome weeds were able to survive
F) some individual were able to evoke before the spraying
G) genetic variation in the population allowed some weeds to survive
H) the spray caused some individual to mutate and they were able to survive and reproduce
I) Each individual occupied a different ecological niche and so some were unaffected
5) in a population, natural selection acts on
A) heritavle difference
B) genetic mutation
C) homologous structure
D) analogous structure

When two species compete for the same ecological niche, they cannot coexist because they are competing for the exact same resources. One species is always slightly better adapted for the niche than the other, so over time the disadvantaged species will either go extinct or shift to a different ecological niche. This situation highlights the concept of _______.
a.carrying capacity
b.competitive exclusion
c.limiting factor
d.biotic factor

When ecologist G. F. Gause raised two species of Paramecium (protists) together in laboratory cultures with limited resources, he found that one species (P. aurelia) persisted in his cultures while the other species (P. caudatum) disappeared over time. This is best described as an example of:
Select one:
a. character displacement
b. fundamental niche reduction
c. resource partitioning
d. competitive exclusion
Evolution by natural selection can result in changes in a species’ niche over time.
Select one:
true or false
