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.
