List five conditions that can disrupt genetic equilibrium and cause evolution to occur
Colt1911 [192]
1. Non random mating
                                    In genetic equilibrium individuals must mate at random. However, in many species, individuals select mates based on heritable traits, such as size, strength, or coloration, a practice known as sexual selection.

2. Small population size
                                        Genetic drift does not have major effects on large populations but can affect small populations. Thus evolutionary change due to genetic drift happens more easily in small populations.

<span>3. Immigration or Emigration
                                                 Individuals who join a populations may introduce new alleles into the gene pool. Likewise individuals who leave may remove alleles from the gene pool. Any movement of individuals into (immigration) or out of (emigration) a population can disrupt genetic equilibrium, a process know as gene flow.

4. Mutations
                   Individuals who join a populations may introduce new alleles into the gene pool. Likewise individuals who leave may remove alleles from the gene pool. Any movement of individuals into (immigration) or out of (emigration) a population can disrupt genetic equilibrium, a process know as gene flow.

5. Natural Selection
 if different genotypes have different fitness, genetic equilibrium will be disrupted, and evolution will occur.</span>

Which of the following methods can be used to determine the relative age of rock and strata? Select all that apply.
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Stratigraphy and Biostratigraphy.

Explanation:

Relative dating is a method of determination of age, in which one object or organism is compared with the other object or organism found in the heap of strata. It is a method for determining the relative order of the past events, without stating the absolute age.

Stratigraphy is a branch of geology that studies the relative position of the sediments and rocks in the strata with respect to the geological timescale. Biostratigraphy is the branch of stratigraphy which deals with the relative aging of fossils with respect to the strata in which these are found defining a particular period of geological time scale.
