Bell and collaborators painstakingly documented a population of fossil sticklebacks from an ancient freshwater lake over a 20,000-year period. The prevalence of sticklebacks with full and reduced pelvises changed over time. Which is true?1. Initially (time A), fish with full pelvises dominated the lake population.2. By the end of the studied period (time D) there was an approximately equal number of sticklebacks with and without spines.3. In this population, having pelvic spines seemed to provide a selective advantage to stickleback fish.4. The evolution of pelvic reduction seen in the fossil record is different from the phenomenon occurring in the lakes in Alaska today.5. The population of fish with pelvic spines that arrived in the lake at time B evolved a reduced pelvis over time (beginning at time C).

1. variations in a population of moths allow for some of its members to be able to adapt to environmental changes. the better adapted of the moths will be able to survive the change and thus prevail as the “fittest” of the species. (a) describe three mechanisms in which variation can occur within a species population. (b) explain which mechanism or mechanisms would be responsible for the survival of a population of peppered moths better than white moths in an environment affected by industrial soot. justify your answer.
