Which of the following is not a prediction of the neutral theory of molecular evolution? a. adaptive changes in dna sequences will occur faster in smaller populations b. the rate at which homologous dna sequences of two species accumulate base pair differences is roughly constant over long periods of time c. the rate of change in sequence is expected to be higher for nonfunctional dna sequences than for dna sequences whose protein products have critically important functions d. the probability that a new mutation will eventually be fixed in the population is about equal to 1/2ne, where ne is the effective population size e. the frequency of heterozygotes, averaged accross many dna sites, is higher if the population is larger

Compare and contrast cladistics and phylogeny. what are their advantages and disadvantages? which is the most useful in understanding how an organism developed into its current form? which concept most strongly supports your opinion about the origin of any given organism?

Why reason best illustrates why hershey and chase chose to use viruses in their experiment?

Sally and sue were investigating the topic of friction in science. they used a small car and a ramp as seen in the picture to test what they were learning. they knew that they slipped easily on waxed floors but not on carpet, so they decided to change the material on the surface of the ramp to see what happened. they planned to use glass, carpet, aluminum foil, and sandpaper and run the car down the ramp over each surface. what would be the best research question to guide the girls' experiment? a) does the amount of surface area affect the friction on the moving car? b) will the car travel fastest on the glass surface? c) how does the angle of the ramp affect the speed of the car? d)do rougher surfaces tend to create more friction than smooth surfaces?
