Suppose a mutation occurs in an individual animal. What do you think would happen if the mutation had these different effects on the animal?
Choose A, B, or C for each effect, and be prepared to explain why you chose that result.

A. The mutation will become more common.

B. The mutation will disappear.

C. The mutation will remain at a low level.

Effect #1: The mutation results in the organism having more offspring.

Effect #2: The mutation confers resistance to a deadly disease.

Effect #3: The mutation results in the organism being less attractive to potential mates.

Effect #4: The mutation produces no change in the animal.

Answer:

For effect #1, the mutation will become more common (A). This is because with the organism having more children, the trait will be passed around much faster and will spread to surrounding groups of animals.

For effect #2, the mutation will become more common (A). This is because the disease will kill the animals who do not carry the gene leaving only the animals with the trait, making it much more common

For effet #3, the mutation will disappear (B). This is because the animal carrying the gene will slowly die off. After all,  they will not be able to reproduce and pass the gene to their children.

For effect #4, the mutation will remain at a low level (C). This happens because since it procures no change there will be no reason to transfer it so it will become a recessive trait in the animals.
