In an adaptive radiation, numerous related lineages arise in a relatively short time and evolve in many different directions as they adapt to different habitats or ways of life. Radiation, rather than directional trends, is perhaps the most common pattern of long-term evolution. Which statements is not true for adaptive radiation?

#Unit 11. Evolution and Behavior
  1. the time of each branching point in a phylogeny has been estimated by a calibrated molecular clock.
  2. it is inaccurate or even wrong to consider one living species more “advanced” than another.
  3. Divergent evolution of numerous related lineages within a relatively short time.
  4. The lineages become modified for different ways of life.

Choose the incorrect statement regarding the Van der Waals interactions & Hydrogen bonds
1. In Van der Waals interactions greater the area of contact the stronger the interaction.
2. In Van der Waals interactions greater the area of contact the weaker  the interaction.
3. Hydrogen bonds Relative strength is inversely proportional to the polarity More polar atoms form weak H bonds.
4. Hydrogen bonds Relative strength is directly proportional to the polarity More polar atoms form stronger H bonds.
