Biometry is the application of_______ in biology.
Correct answer: B. Statistics
- A. Algebra
- B. Statistics
- C. Matrix
- D. Geometry
Explanation
Biometry applies statistical methods to biological measurements, such as variation in body size, inheritance, and population data. Algebra, matrices, and geometry may be used in particular analyses, but they are not what the term biometry primarily means. Students may choose algebra because biological measurements can involve equations, but the defining tool is statistics.

About Concept of Evolution
Evolution is the heritable change in populations over generations, driven by mutation, recombination, natural selection, genetic drift and reproductive isolation. Questions examine variation, adaptation, survival and reproduction, speciation, fossil and anatomical evidence, and the difference between individual acclimatization and evolutionary change in a population.
