Genetic drift occurs when a few indlviduals of a species colonize an island. This phenomenon is

The struggle for existence is a consequence of

(2) innate competitive tendencies
(3) the inevitable difficulty of coping with climatic conditions
(4) territories and dominance hierarchies
Darwin believed that a giraffe has a long neck because
(1) a creator designed it that way
(2) catastrophes eliminated short neck forms
(3) its ancestors stretched their necks to get food
(4) ancestral giraffes with longer necks got more food and left more surviving off-springs.

In genetic drift, the term "genetic bottleneck" means:
(1) reduction in allele frequencies or richness
(2) random change in allele frequency by chance alone
(3) sudden increase in the number of individuals
(4) reproductive isolation of the population
Which of the following is not a precondition for Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium?

Which of the following is not a major evolutionary trend seen in the evolution of horse?
