microevolution Answer - involves changes in allele frequency within
populations
humans Answer - all of the above are correct
what two observations did Charles Darwin start with to help him develop his
theory of evolution Answer - B and D are correct
directional selection Answer - selection that shifts a population curve in favor
of some extreme phenotype
artificial selection Answer - people select the trait that survives and
reproduces the next generation

adaptations that enable individual organisms to meet the challenges posed by
their abiotic environments.
