The usage of evolutionary theory to defend eugenics proves that: A. Dat evolusie te gevaarlik is as ʼn idee vir die algemene bevolking en politici. / That evolution is to dangerous an idea to the general public and politicians. B. Die evolusieleer is vals. / Evolutionary theory is false. C. Dat evolutie briljante toepassings kan hê om die menslike ras te verbeter / that evolution can have excellent applications to improve the human race D. Dat daar onderskei moet word tussen ʼn teorie en die misbruik daarvan. / That there must be distinguished between a theory and the abuse thereof.

From the perspective of evolutionary psychology, which of the following statements are illogical or inconsistent with the fundamental principles of evolution? Select all that apply.Group of answer choicesEvolution has been primarily driven by differences in individual fitness, with the sacrifice of individuals for the benefit of the group being a common occurrence.Sexual selection has favoured the development of traits that are considered attractive by the opposite sex, leading to the evolution of more exaggerated and costly displays over time.Natural selection operates on individual organisms, with those possessing advantageous traits being more likely to survive and reproduce, passing on their genes to future generations.The ultimate result of evolution is to ensure the survival and well-being of the species as a whole, even if it comes at the cost of individual fitness.Evolutionary adaptations that enhance an individual's ability to attract mates and reproduce, even if they do not directly contribute to survival, can still be favoured by selection.

In the end, the Eugenics Movement of human behavior as biologically fixed and unchanging, proved instead that it showed that people can be so manipulated and malleable, they can learn to do just about anything no matter how heinous. Group of answer choicesTrueFalse

Recent technologies, such as genetic manipulation, are again opening the door for a resurgence in eugenic (planned breeding) practices, but we would be wise to remember the fact that humans now being able to alter people's genetic code tells us nothing about what we should do with that information. Although new technological opportunities offer us possibilities to improve many people's lives, our recent past illustrates the inherent dangers in using science to justify our actions.11Mark for ReviewABCWhich choice best states the main idea of the text?AApplication of newly discovered principles of genetics poses a risk due to their unintentional outcomes.BThe field of eugenics has supplied us with new insights but its practical utilization remains to be seen.CWhile applying any new principle with the aid of technology, there are consequences along with the benefits.DIt is important to tread cautiously in experimentation of planned breeding as it is a double-edged sword.

Evolution isconstantly occurring at the same rate in ALL organisms.a rare event.currently occurring ONLY in scientific laboratoriesa process that occurs as a result of differences in inheritable traits that are beneficial
