Biological clocks are physiological
systems that enable organisms to live in harmony with the rhythms of nature,
such as the cycles of day and night and of the seasons. Such biological "timers"
exist for almost every kind of periodicity throughout the plant and animal
world, but most of what is known about them comes from the study of circadian,
or daily, rhythms. Circadian rhythms cue typical daily behavior patterns even in
the absence of external cues such as sunrise, demonstrating that such patterns
depend on internal timers for their periodicity. No clock is
perfect, however. When organisms are deprived of the hints the world normally
provides, they display a characteristic "free-running" period of not quite 24
hours. As a result, free-running animals drift slowly out of phase with the
natural world. In experiments in which people are is A. (A) stones B. (B) plants C. (C) animals D. (D) human beings

Natural selection describes the biological process in which the differences of individuals within a population influences their abilities to survive and reproduce in an environment. The differences in individuals is a result of their genetic inheritance from their parents. In a population, any characteristic which blocks reproduction success tends to decrease generation by generation. In time, the ill-adapted die out. On the other hand,the individuals who do survive and reproduce will tend to produce offspring which are better adapted to the environment. Natural selection tends to promote adaptations that will increase the organism’s ability to survive in an environment.
Natural selection can serve to stabilize a population if the new traits, called mutations, are eliminated when they appear because they are not as well-adapted to the environment. The opposite effect is obtained when a new trait is introduced which allows individuals to adapt better over time, the s A. they have different success generation by generation B. they are ill-adapted and eventually die out C. they have different genetic inheritances D. they want to survive and reproduce successfully
[填空题]Biological control entails using synthetic chemicals to try and change the genetic make-up of the pests’ offspring.

[单项选择] What unusual or unique biological train led to the remarkable diversification and
unchallenged success of the ants for ever 50 million years The answer appears to be
that they were the first group of predatory ensocial insects that both lived and foraged
primarily in the soil and in rotting vegetation on the ground. Eusocial refers to a form
(5) of insect society characterized by specialization of tasks and cooperative care of the
young; it is rare among insects. Richly organized colonies of the land made possible
by eusociality enjoy several key advantages over solitary individuals.
Under most circumstances groups of workers arc better able to forage for food and
defend the nest, because they can switch from individual to group response and back
(10) again swiftly and according to need. When a food object or nest intruder is too large for
one individual to handle, nestmates can be quickly assembled by alarm or recruitment
