Q: What is the force pulling an object downward called? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: The weight of an object is the force pulling the object downward. On Earth, this would be the gravitational force of the Earth on the object. On the moon, this would be the gravitational force of the moon on the object. The gravitational force of the moon is one-sixth the magnitude of the gravitational force of the Earth; the weight of the moon rock on the moon will be one-sixth the weight of the moon rock on the Earth's surface. Weight is measured in force unitsnewtonsby a calibrated spring scale as shown here. Choices: - momentum - density - magnetism - weight A:
weight

Q: What is the unit of evolution? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Remember that individuals do not evolve. Their genes do not change over time. The unit of evolution is the population. A population consists of organisms of the same species that live in the same area. In terms of evolution, the population is assumed to be a relatively closed group. This means that most mating takes place within the population. The science that focuses on evolution within populations is population genetics . It is a combination of evolutionary theory and Mendelian genetics. Choices: - species - community - biome - population A:
population

Q: All the genes in all the members of a population make up its what? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: A population is a group of organisms of the same species that live in the same area. All the genes in all the members of a population make up the population's gene pool . For each gene, the gene pool includes all the different alleles in the population. The gene pool can be described by its allele frequencies for specific genes. The frequency of an allele is the number of copies of that allele divided by the total number of alleles for the gene in the gene pool. Choices: - phenotype - diversity - longevity - gene pool A:
gene pool
