jpopulations jwhose jmembers jhave jthe jpotential jto jinterbreed jand jproduce jviable,
jfertile joffspring

,population j- jcorrect janswers j-refers jto jall jthe jmembers jof ja jspecies jthat jlive jin jthe
jsame jarea jat jthe jsame jtime jand jhave jthe jopportunity jto jinterbreed


molecular jevolution j- jcorrect janswers j-refers jto jthe jprocess jof jevolution jat jthe jlevel
jof jgenes jand jproteins; jcomparisons jof jgenes jor jprotein jsequences jin jdifferent
jorganisms jcan jreveal jevolutionary jrelationships jthat jcannot jbe jseen jin jmorphology

jbehavioral jchanges jcould jmodify jtraits jand jthese jmodified jtraits jwere jinheritable jto
joffspring; jincorrect, jbut jimportant jin jpromoting jthe jidea jof jevolutionary jchange


natural jselection j- jcorrect janswers j-individuals jwith jheritable jtraits jthat jmake jthem
jbetter jsuited jto jtheir jnative jenvironment jtend jto jflourish jand jreproduce; jtherefore
jcertain jtraits jthat jfavor jreproductive jsuccess jbecome jmore jprevalent jin ja jpopulation
