Read the following scenario to answer the following question. over the past 60 years, many amphibian species have experienced significant population declines, and some species have become extinct. scientists suspected that local human activities such as the destruction of wetlands, regional pollution, and deforestation were the main reasons for these losses. however, research over the past 20 years reveals significant amphibian population declines in protected areas of the world, such as nature preserves and parks. these global declines suggest widespread problems including increased ultraviolet radiation, acid rain, and disease. in switzerland, for example, 14 of the 20 native amphibian species are threatened with extinction. when most populations of a wide-ranging amphibian species are lost and the few remaining populations are widely separated, we expect to see that a. the founder effect becomes increasingly important b. microevolution no longer occurs c. gene flow between populations is reduced d. artificial selection becomes a greater factor in microevolution

Tara sees a commercial for a brand of pills that promise to boost energy and people perform better in work and school. as people in the commercial talk about how much better they feel when taking the pill, tara notices a message on the bottom of the screen that reads, "this pill is not approved by doctors and has not been tested in controlled experiments." what is the best conclusion that tara should make about the commercial? it is making scientific claims based on subjective observations. it is making scientific claims based on opinions instead of pseudoscientific facts. it is making pseudoscientific claims based on objective observations. it is making pseudoscientific claims based on opinions instead of scientific facts.

The wings of insects, birds, and bats evolved independently but carry out similar functions. this is an example of a. analogous structures. b. embryonic structures. c. vestigial structures. d. homologous structures.
