Answer:
1)
- frequencies of light-colored mice ≅ 0.74
- frequencies of dark-colored mice ≅ 0.26
2)
- frequencies of light-colored mice ≅ 0.13
- frequencies of dark-colored mice ≅ 0.87
3)
- q² = 0.74
- p² = 0.02
- 2pq = 0.24
4)
- q² = 0.13
- p² = 0.4
- 2pq = 0.46
5)
The dark-colored fur seems to have the greatest overall selective advantage
6)
Dark lava, that changed the color of the substrate, from light to dark.
7)
Because to produce dark color, animals from the different regions suffered different mutations that drove them to have almost the same dark fur color. All of the animals are inhabiting dark substrate, which means that this environmental condition is favoring the same phenotype.
8)
To see if the mice population is evolving, you need to take a sample of animals per year, through many years, and analyze if it is changing or not. If the population is evolving, you will notice a change in the allelic and genotypic frequencies over the years, favoring one genotype or the other. If the population is not evolving, the frequencies will keep equal through the years, it will not change.

Answer:
A. They are constantly moving. I think.
Explanation:
Each lithospheric plate is composed of a layer of oceanic crust or continental crust superficial to an outer layer of the mantle. Containing both crust and the upper region of the mantle, lithospheric plates are generally considered to be approximately 60 mi (100 km) thick. Earth's tectonic plates may have taken as long as 1 billion years to form, researchers report today in Nature. The plates — interlocking slabs of crust that float on Earth's viscous upper mantle — were created by a process similar to the subduction seen today when one plate dives below another, the report says. A tectonic plate (also called lithospheric plate) is a massive, irregularly shaped slab of solid rock, generally composed of both continental and oceanic lithosphere. Plate size can vary greatly, from a few hundred to thousands of kilometers across; the Pacific and Antarctic Plates are among the largest.
