Think about the ways we define/identify a species. What would the least precise way to determine a living species (so not extinct)?

Please answer both parts Part A. Evolution cannot produce "perfect" organisms because: a. Mutations occur at random and are not often useful b. Selective pressures may change and/or may be in conflict with each other c. Past evolutionary history makes it impossible to go "back to the drawing board" d. All of the above e. None of the above Part B. The gene pool of a population (i.e., allele frequencies in a population) may change due to a. migration. b. a bottleneck. c. genetic drift. d. disruptive selection. e. all of the above are correct.
. The Process of Evolution by Natural Selection – Be able to explain the process of evolution by natural selection as it applies to a specific living thing using the outline below: Natural variations caused by random mutations (adaptations) in DNA exist within populations. Those with helpful adaptations survive an environmental change (maybe a predator.) The survivors breed, passing on the inherited mutation (adaptation) to offspring. The resulting population has more of the successful inherited mutation (adaptation) than the original population. Phylogenetic Trees Infer evolutionary relationships of living things by interpreting phylogenetic trees. Know the divisions of hierarchical classification. (DKPCOFGS) c. Differentiate between homologous and analogous (caused by convergent evolution) structures
Describe mutations that do not affect protein structure or function and provide details of how such mutations may play a role in evolutionary change and speciation. Give a specific example (including both the phenotypes and mutation)
