The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "All of the following are incorrect about evolution, except:", we need to analyze each statement provided and identify which one is correct regarding evolution. ### Step 1: Analyze the Statements 1. **Statement 1**: "Evolution is a directed process in the sense of determinism." - **Analysis**: This statement is incorrect. Evolution is not a directed process; it is influenced by random events and natural selection. It is a stochastic process, meaning it involves chance. 2. **Statement 2**: "In a mixed population, the one that can better adapt will not survive." - **Analysis**: This statement is also incorrect. In a mixed population, those individuals that are better adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and reproduce. 3. **Statement 3**: "Evolution due to man-made activity is called anthropogenic action." - **Analysis**: This statement is correct. Evolution that occurs as a result of human activities is indeed referred to as anthropogenic action. 4. **Statement 4**: "Evolution is a stochastic process based on the chance events in organisms and chance mutation in nature." - **Analysis**: While this statement contains some truth, it is misleading in the context of the question. The first part of the statement is correct, but it is redundant with the first statement and does not provide new information. ### Step 2: Identify the Correct Statement From the analysis, the only correct statement is **Statement 3**: "Evolution due to man-made activity is called anthropogenic action." ### Conclusion The correct answer to the question is **Statement 3**. ---
