Two populations of flowers are growing in fields on either side of a river. One population is wild and affected by natural selection and one is the product of artificial selection by a farmer. A scientist wants to determine how the populations differ from each other. The scientist proposes one way to know they are different would be to simulate a drought for 5 years for each field of plants. The scientist thinks that if there was a drought, there would be more variation in the survival of the wild plants than the artificial plants. Some wild plants would live and some would die. In the artificial population, most all the plants would live or most all the plants would die. Which response correctly evaluates the scientist’s claim with supporting evidence? (AKS 4e, DOK 3) A. It is correct because the wild population would not have as healthy genes to deal with a drought as those produced by artificial selection. B. It is incorrect because the wild population would have all stronger genes compared to the artificial population and so the wild plants would all survive the drought. C. It is incorrect because the traits of the wild population are not inherited like the traits of the artificial population and so the wild population would most all live or most all die. D. It is correct because the wild population has more variation, so some plants can tolerate drought, but the artificial plants are all similar to each other and react the same.

Imagine you are riding on a yacht in the ocean and traveling at 20 mph. you then hit a golf ball at 100 mph from the deck of the yacht. you see the ball move away from you at 100mph, while a person standing on a near by beach would observe your golf ball traveling at 120 mph (20 mph + 100 mph). now imagine you are aboard the hermes spacecraft traveling at 0.1c (1/10 the speed of light) past mars and shine a laser from the front of the ship. you would see the light traveling at c (the speed of light) away from your ship. according to einstein’s special relativity, how fast will a person on mars observe the light to be traveling? a) 0.1c (1/10 the speed of light) b) c (the speed of light) c)1.1c (c+0.1c)
