BIOD 210 Module 1 Exam
, Natural selection posited that more offspring were
produced than an environment could actually support.
Survival in a crowded environment would lead to
struggle within a population, so the offspring that
inherited the most desirable traits for a certain
environment would ultimately survive. Over time,
variations would evolve in offspring that would make
them more adaptive, and ultimately over time, new
species could evolve.
Question 2 pts
Name the animal model (mouse, fruit fly, worm, or zebrafish) that

Correct! Can be “humanized” Mouse
Correct! Extremely inexpensive Fruit fly
and extremely short life
span
Correct! Transparent egg and Zebrafish
embryo
Correct! Simple nervous system Worms
that is easy to research
