41. Microevolution is defined as:
Changes in population size
Changes in the frequency of alleles in the gene pool
Changes in the composition of the population
Emergence of new species
Changes in community size
42. A zorse is the offspring produced through interbreedingbetween a horse and a zebra. Zorses are often preferred for ridingbecause of their physical shape, but they are sterile. According toLinnaean taxonomy, are zebras and horses classified in the samespecies?
Yes
No
Sometimes
