Researchers discovered that a new strain of bacteria that causes tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) has a point mutation in the rpoB gene that codes for part of the RNA polymerase enzyme. This mutant form of RNA polymerase does not function as well as the more common form of RNA polymerase. A commonly used antibiotic called rifampin does not affect the mutant rpoB bacteria.A researcher mixes M. tuberculosis with and without the rpoB mutation and adds the bacteria to cell cultures. Half the cell cultures contain only standard nutrients, while the other half of the cell cultures contain rifampin and the standard nutrients. After many cell generations, you might expect the researcher to find________.

Claytonia virginica is a woodland spring herb with flowers that vary from white to pale pink to bright pink. Slugs prefer to eat pink-flowering plants over white-flowering plants, and plants experiencing this severe herbivory are more likely to die. The bees that pollinate this plant also prefer pink to white flowers, so Claytonia with pink flowers have greater relative fruit set (a measure of fitness) than Claytonia with white flowers. A researcher observes that the percentage of different flower colors remains stable in the study population from year to year. With no other information, if the researcher removes all slugs from the study population, what do you expect to happen to the distribution of flower colors in the population over time?

Cotton-topped tamarins are small primates with tufts of long white hair on their heads. While studying these animals, you notice that males with longer hair get more opportunities to mate and father more offspring. To test the hypothesis that having longer hair is adaptive in these males, you should FIRST ________.
