true
1. Adaptations of species are determined by the genes contained in the DNA code. __________________
2. When Charles Mendel developed the theory of natural selection in the 1800s, he did not include a

3. Natural selection can act upon an individual’s genotype, the external expression of genes.

4. Natural selection operates on an individual over many generations. __________________
5. The entire collection of genes among a population is its gene frequency. __________________
6. If you know the phenotypes of all the organisms in a population, you can calculate the allelic frequency

10. Many migrations are caused by factors in the environment, such as radiation or chemicals, but others

11. Mutations are important in evolution because they result in genetic changes in the gene pool.
