| 3264130943 | Natural Selection | Process by which organisms having heritable traits that better enable them to adapt to specific environmental pressures will tend to survive and reproduce in greater amounts than those of the same species ensuring that these traits will be passed on to future generations | 0 | |
| 3264130944 | ONE issue regarding influx of AHBs that might warrant further study | Competition btw two species for limited resources such as food supplies and space. Whether or not more aggresive behavior of protecting the nest allows more AHBS to survive, thereby increasing the ratio of AHB-EHB is another factor | 1 | |
| 3264136654 | ONE area in which the process of natural selection does not apply to the colonization of AHBs | Since the environment is not changing over a short period of time, it is not a variable involved in the survival rates. Both subspecies can survive in the environment . The environment is not affecting disproportionate natal its rates btw two species based on one having a survival rate over the other | 2 | |
| 3264150311 | ONE factor that demonstrates the process of natural selection | The range of genetic variation within a species gene pool determines whether or not the species has the capacity to adapt and survive to changes in the environment | 3 | |
| 3264159341 | TWO examples as to why the expansionism of AHB has stopped | 1. they are adapted to tropical climates (Africa and brazil). Their ability to survive may be restricted to climatic zones that have warm temps most of the year. Cold temps can influence viability of offspring and expansionism 2. Geographic barriers. Mountain ranges, lack of resources, and dry deserts with low humidity can slow expansionism | 4 | |
| 3264199166 | 2 adaptations honeybees have developed in order to survive | 1. Clustering behavior- working as social unit with predetermined behavioral patterns and duties in each class 2. Cool the hive- ability to ensure temp stability allows bees to colonize a wide variety of environments | 5 | |
| 3264856052 | ONE method used to control spread of AHBS | Ensure sufficient EHBS in the area. This would provide competition for resources between the two subspecies thereby reducing the carrying capacity of the area | 6 | |
| 3264864754 | ONE economic implication that AHBS might have on agriculture | Bees are necessary for agriculture. Agriculture today requires the use of honey bees for pollination | 7 |
