In an agricultural field where pesticides are regularly sprayed, there are always some insects

that survive due to some innate resistance based on their genetic makeup. These are the ones that then reproduce so that in future generations there are more insects/pests that are resistant to the pesticides. Over time, this may give rise to an entire population that is resistant to the pesticide. This is an example of

a. homology. b. natural selection. c. experimentation. d. classification

Scientists have confirmed by carbon dating that seeds dormant for up to 2000 years can successfully germinate. Based on the requirements for germination, what research expedition should you join in order to retrieve some ancient but viable seeds?

A. A trip to the Irish marsh, where wet peat creates anaerobic conditions, and your colleagues hope to unearth a bog mummy. B. A trip to the arid Dead Sea region, where your historian colleagues have found a storeroom of wax-sealed jars. C. A trip to the Burgess Shale in Canada, where your paleontologist colleagues have found fossils from the Cambrian era. D. A trip to Indonesia, where the civet cat eats and expels coffee beans, producing a gourmet coffee known as Kopi Luwak.
