The English moth, Biston betularia, is often cited as an example of observed evolution. There are two colors of this moth, light

and
dark (typica and carbonaria). Kettlewell found that dark moths constituted less than 2% of the population prior to 1848. Then, the
frequency of the dark coloration began to increase. By 1898, the 95% of the moths in Manchester and other highly industrialized
areas were of the dark color. Using the moth example, analyze the events in order to identify support for the statement: natural
selection changes populations, not individuals. Choose ALL that apply.
A)
Variation in the population existed.
B)
Color variation is a result of different gene combinations.
C)
In response to environmental change, moth coloration changed from light
to dark.
D)
Due to natural selection, the ratio of different genetic combinations is
changing
E)
Predator pressure resulted in the light colored genotype being removed
from the gene pool.

Which is correct about dna replication? dna polymerase can build dna from scratch. dna polymerase adds nucleotides in the 3' to
Ivahew [28]

The correct answer is: C) the place where the parent DNA becomes unzipped during DNA replication is called the replication fork.


DNA Polymerase doesn't build DNA from scratch, rather it adds the correct nucleotides to the complementary parent strand.


DNA Polymerase adds nucleotides in the 5' to 3' direction, not the 3' to 5' direction.


DNA is made semiconservatively, meaning that there is a template strand from the parent DNA with a complementary strand being the new daughter strand.


The strand that is made continuously is the leading strand. The lagging strand is not made continuously, as it requires the use of Okazaki fragments.
