Insects use wings to fly like bats and birds, but the wing structure and embryonic origin is completely different therefore these are considered as analogous structures.

Select the correct statement(s).
A. Microbial experiment show the pre-existing advantageous mutations when selected will result in the observation of new phenotypes. Over few generation this would result in speciation.
B. Neanderthal fossils represent a human relative.
C. In 1938, a fish caught in South Africa happened to be a coelacanth (lobe fins) which was thought to be extinct. These animals evolved into the first amphibian living on both land and water.
D. Lichens can be used as water pollution indicators.
E. Alfred Wallace, a naturalist, who worked in Malay Archepelago (present Indonesia) has also come to similar conclusion on natural selection as reached by Darwinism

Age of fossils in the past was generally determined by radio-carbon method and other methods involving radioactive elements found in the rocks. More precise methods, which were used recently and led to the revision of the evolutionary periods for different groups of organisms includes:
  1. study of the conditions of fossilization
  2. study of carbohydrates/proteins in rocks
  3. study of carbohydrates/proteins in fossils
  4. electron-spin resonance (ESR) and fossil DNA

The mouse yellow fur locus was generated by the fusion of the promoter region of the Raly gene with the agouti locus's open reading frame. In what sense is the yellow locus an example of a gain-of-function mutation? In what sense is the yellow locus an example of a loss-of-function mutation? If two yellow mice had six offspring, how many of the offspring would you expect to be yellow? If two yellow mice had six offspring, what is the likelihood that three would be agouti and three would be yellow? The yellow fur locus affects traits besides fur color. The heterozygous mice suffer from obesity, hyperinsulinemia, and tumorigenesis. What is the phenomenon where one locus affects many traits called? In D. melanogaster, wing size is controlled by the dumpy wing gene. The dominant wildtype allele generates long wings, and the dumpy allele generates short wings. Body color is controlled by the ebony gene. The dominant wildtype allele generates tan bodies, while the recessive allele generates black bodies. A dihybrid fly was generated by mating homozygous wildtype flies with short wing black flies. These dihybrid flies were interbred to generate an F2 generation. The phenotypes of the F2 flies are summarized in the table below. Use chi-square analysis to test whether the ebony gene obeys Mendel's Law of Segregation. Long wing tan body: 462 Long wing black body: 167 Short wing tan body: 127 Short wing black body: Table of Critical Values for P-0.05 Degree Freedom 11.07 12.59 14.07 15.51 3.84 5.99 7.82 9.49 Critical Values
