3.

Which mechanism of evolution causes the initial change in the traits of an INDIVIDUAL, adding genetic diversity?
- A.
  
  Mutation
- B.
  
  Natural Selection
- C.
  
  Gene Flow
- D.
  
  Genetic Drift
4.

The graphs show the change in the population of fish over time. Some fish have spines (with spines) while others do not have spines (no spines). What is the trend you see over time in these graphs and how can natural selection make this occur?
- A.
  
  There's the same number of fish with no spines and with spines because natural selection produces diversity
- B.
  
  There's a higher number of fish with no spines because all of the fish mutated to have no spines
- C.
  
  There is a higher number of fish with spines over time because the fish with spines are better able to survive and reproduce
- D.
  
  There is a higher number of fish with no spines over time because the fish with no spines were better able to survive and reproduce

8.

Why are these considered analogous structures, not homologous structures?
- A.
  
  They have the same structure but a different purpose
- B.
  
  Even though they have the same structure, they did not have a common ancestor with that structure
- C.
  
  They have completely different structures and purposes
- D.
  
  They have a common ancestor with the same trait
