Dr. Alex Young would like to know about your progress in solving the mystery about the rough-skinned newts. In the space below, answer the Chapter 1 Question: What caused this newt population to become more poisonous?
Use what you have learned so far to consider these claims:
Claim 1: Individual newts became more poisonous because they wanted to.
Claim 2: The newt population became more poisonous because of something in the environment.
Revised Claim 2: The newt population became more poisonous because the snakes in this environment caused poison to be an adaptive trait
Choose one or more claims to support with evidence and reasoning. You may also want to explain why one or more of the claims is definitely not correct.
Be sure to use some of the vocabulary words you have learned so far:
adaptive trait
distribution
environment
non-adaptive trait
population
trait
variation

Ry was studying two populations of the same species of lizards. one population lived on an island and the other lived on the mainland. both populations were affected by a hurricane that hit the island and the mainland with equal force. a year later, henry was testing the gene frequency and saw a decrease in genetic variation in the island species, but not in the mainland species. which best describes a conclusion he might have reached? gene flow greatly affects small populations, but large populations can recover. genetic drift greatly affects small populations, but large populations can recover. gene flow greatly affects large populations, but small populations can recover. genetic drift greatly affects large populations, but small populations can recover.
