1. Genetic variation _____. A. is created by the direct action of natural selection B. must be present in a population before natural selection can act upon the population C. arises in response to changes in the environment D. tends to be reduced by when diploid organisms produce gametes 2. What is a genetic correlation? A. When selection favoring alleles for one trait causes a correlated but suboptimal change in an allele for another trait. B. When two offspring inherit the same alleles from their parents. C. When mutation occurs in two parts of the same gene. D. A lack of genetic variation in a population.
