Answer:
A step that is not part of natural selection is people select which individuals breed and which ones do not.
Explanation:
Natural selection is a process in which favorable or unfavorable environmental conditions determine the evolution of species, producing differences in their genotype over a long period of time.
As its name indicates, it is a natural selection, in which no intervention by people is contemplated, so that <u>people cannot determine which individuals breed</u>.
Natural selection implies that the characteristics on which the environment influences are inheritable, that there is genetic variability in the population and that the variability of these characteristics implies the ease of reproduction and survival capacity.
<em>The other options do form part of natural selection, since they are based on the three premises of this process:
</em>
- <em>Inheritable characteristics.
</em>
- <em>Genetic variability.
</em>
- <em>The variability of characteristics influences reproduction and survival.</em>

Answer:
1/8
Explanation:
An individual must have all three dominant alleles to be red, in homozygosis or heterozygosis (R_E_D_).
<u>The parental cross was:</u>
RREEDD x rreedd
F1: RrEeDd
<u>The test cross</u> is between the RrEeDd indiviudals and homozygous recessive rreedd.
The genes assort independently, so we can use Mendel's law of segregation to predict separately for each gene the proportion of the offspring that will have the dominant alleles.
<h3><u>Rr x rr</u></h3>
1/2 Rr
1/2 rr
<h3><u>Ee x ee</u></h3>
1/2 Ee
1/2 ee
<h3><u>Dd x dd</u></h3>
1/2 Dd
1/2 dd
Genes are independent, so the probability of having a R_E_D_ offpsring is calculated by multiplying the individual probabilities of having a dominant allele for each gene:
1/2 (Rr) × 1/2 (Ee) × 1/2 (Dd)= 1/8
