To estimate the number of foxes m an area, a researcher conducted a mark-recapture survey. In the fast survey, he caught and marked 90 foxes. In his second survey a week later, he caught 120 foxes of which 40 were marked (recaptures). If you are told that the actual number of foxes in this area is 400, which of the following is a plausible explanation for the anomaly in the researcher's data? 

#Unit 10. Ecological Principles
  1. Capture increased mortality in the marked foxes
  2. Large mortality of foxes between the two surveys 
  3. The marked foxes were more likely to avoid recapture
  4. The marked foxes were more likely to be recaptured

You set up an experiment in which you breed two populations of true-breeding pea plants. The first true-breeding population has yellow round seeds and the second has green wrinkled seeds. All of the F1 plants yield yellow round seeds. When you self -fertilize the F1 the F2 generation yields a mixture of yellow round, yellow wrinkled, green round and green wrinkled seeds. What does this tell you about the alleles for seed color and shape?
