,TRUE / FALSE QUESTIONS
1. Bacterial Genotypes That Are Genetically Resistant To A Class Of Antibiotics, When
Cultured In The Absence Of Antibiotics, Usually Suffer Lower Fitness Than Genotypes
Susceptible To Antibiotics
A) True
B) False
ANS. B) False
Explanation: Resistant Genotypes Do Not Always Suffer Lower Fitness In The Absence
Of Antibiotics.
2. All Genetic Variation Results In Phenotypic Variation But Not All Phenotypic
Variation Results From Genetic Variation
A) True
B) False
Some Genetic Variation Is Silent And Does Not Result In Phenotypic Change.
3. The Observation That Species Possess Vestigial Traits Is In Direct Contradiction With
The Concept Of Descent With Modification
A) True
B) False
Vestigial Traits Support Descent With Modification.
,4. Differences In The Types Of Pollinators That Visit The Flowers Of Closely Related
Plant Species Might Be Responsible For Pre-Zygotic Reproductive Isolation
A) True
B) False
Different Pollinators Can Prevent Mating Between Species.
5. The Nucleus Of The Eukaryotic Cell Likely Originated Via Endosymbiosis
A) True
B) False
The Nucleus Is Not Believed To Have Originated Through Endosymbiosis.
6. Sometimes, Traits Favoured By Sexual Selection Would Seem To Decrease The
Survival Of The Individuals Bearing Them
A) True
B) False
Sexually Selected Traits Can Reduce Survival But Increase Mating Success.
7. Continental Drift Was Associated With A Dramatic Increase In The Rate Of
Speciation Primarily Through Vicariance
A) True
B) False
While Vicariance Occurs, It Was Not Necessarily Associated With A Dramatic Increase
In Speciation Rate.
, 8. If A Trait Shows Lots Of Phenotypic Variation Among Individuals In A Population
But Does Not Change From One Generation To The Next, It Means That There Is No
Genetic Basis To The Phenotypic Variation
A) True
B) False
Stable Phenotypic Variation Across Generations Suggests Environmental Influence.
9. The High Frequency Of The Genetic Condition Porphyria Variegate In The White
Afrikaaner Population Is An Example Of Founder Effect
A) True
B) False
The Condition Is A Classic Example Of Founder Effect.
10. New Variants Of The SARS-Cov-2 Virus Seem To Arise From The Previously
Dominant Variant
A) True
B) False
New Variants Arise From Mutation, Not Necessarily Directly From The Dominant
Variant.
