11.The evolutionary force of drift changes allele frequencies more quickly in which of the following kinds of populations?
a. large populations
b. small populations
10.Larger populations generate larger numbers of mutations.
True
False
9.Overdominance can result in changes in genotype frequencies, without changes in allele frequencies.
True
False
8.Protein coding genes usually evolve faster than pseudogenes.
True
False
7.Favorable mutations are not directly induced by environmenntal conditions where they increase fitness, instead they occur by chance, and if they happen to increase fitness, their frequency will increase in a population.
True
False
6.Consider a single gene with two alleles, A and a, in a population. What is the frequency of the Aa genotypes in zygotes drawn from a gene pool where A=0.3 and a=0.7, if they are in Hardy-Weinberg proportions?
1. 0.3
2. .09
3. 0.49
4. 0.42
5. 0.7
