A connected series of neighboring populations that can interbreed with one another with one end population in the series that are two distantly related to interbreed and thus are separate species B. A connected series of neighboring populations that cannot interbreed with one another with at least two end populations in the series that are two distantly related to interbreed and thus are separate species C. None of the answers are correct D.

A. What kind of speciation do we normally associate with members from one population being geographically displaced to a new, smaller population? Geospiza scandens B. What kind of speciation do we normally associate with members of a population that become ecologically, genetically or behaviorally distinct within that population such that they become reproductively isolated?
a) How many of the gene trees do you expect to look like the species tree? b) You observe three gene trees in which species X and Z are the closest relatives and seven gene trees where X and Y are the closest relatives. What can you conclude from these data? Group of answer choices Historical hybridization between species W and X Historical hybridization between species X and Y Historical hybridization between species X and Z Historical hybridization between species Y and Z
Multiple choice quection. 1. Choose the correct option from the below sentence and also provide the explanation of each option given geographicaly overlapping populations that produce hybrid offspring with low relative fitness may be undergoing a. clinal isolation b. sympatric speciation c. allopatric speciation d. reinforceent e. geographical isolation 2. If two species of holly (genus ilex ) flower during different months their gene pools may be kept seprated by a. mechanical isolation b. ecological isolation c. gametic isolation d. temporal isolation e. behavioral isolation
What role does geographic isolation play in the formation of a new species? Group of answer choices A.If two populations become isolated geographically, then the two populations cannot interbreed with one another. There will be gene flow between the two. This will allow the two isolated populations to evolve independently leading to new species. B. If two populations become isolated geographically, then the two populations can interbreed with one another. There will be no gene flow between the two. This will allow the two isolated populations to evolve independently leading to new species. C. None of the answers are correct D. If two populations become isolated geographically, then the two populations cannot interbreed with one another. There will be no gene flow between the two. This will allow the two isolated populations to evolve independently leading to new species.
A) Differentiate allopatric speciation and sympatricspeciation. Which type of speciation is more common andwhy? B) Is allopatric speciation more likely to occur inDumaran Island close to the main island of Palawan oron a more isolated island which is Culion Island of almostthe same size? Explain your prediction.
What is the isolation-by-distance model? A. The genetic similarity between groups will decrease as the geographic distance between them decreases. B. The genetic difference between groups will decrease as the geographic distance between them increases. C. The genetic similarity between groups will increase as the geographic distance between them increases. D. The genetic similarity between groups will decrease as the geographic distance between them increases.
Males of different species of the fruit fly Drosophilathat live in the same parts of the Hawaiian Islandshave different elaborate courtship rituals. These rituals involvefighting other males and making stylized movements thatattract females. What type of reproductive isolation does thisrepresent?(A) habitat isolation(B) temporal isolation(C) behavioral isolation(D) gametic isolation
Indicate the order in which the following steps would take place to result in Parapatric Speciation [enter 1 for the first step, 2 for the second, etc; write only the number -- no words, no spaces] Something happens so that the environment is different in one part of the range relative to the other, even though the populations are still contiguous. As they adapt to their specific environments, the fitness of any hybrid formed is reduced. The populations adapt to their environment in the part of the range where they live. Interbreeding populations connected via gene flow occur across a range. Reproductive isolating mechanisms are selected for so that less fit hybrids are not formed. Two species now exist.
A study of two populations of similar organisms determined that the two populations were different species using the phylogenetic species concept. Is it possible for the two populations to also be defined as two different species using the biological species concept? Explain your answer.
How is sympatric speciation different from allopatric speciation? Group of answer choices Allopatric speciation requires a geographic barrier, while sympatric speciation occurs in one place Allopatric speciation results in hybrids, while sympatric speciation does not Allopatric speciation is a result of behavioral isolation, while sympatric speciation is a result of habitat isolation Allopatric speciation occurs in one place, while sympatric speciation requires a geographic barrier
Question: Hybrids in the F1 generation that are fertile and viable may produce offspring that are sterile and nonviable in the latter generations A. sterilization B. speciation C. Hybrid breakdown D. Hybrid inviability All are true about reproductive isolation, except: A. Reproductive isolation hinders B. Interbreeding of populations C. isolation or barrier can only occur before mating some hybrids can still reproduce
What is the difference between parapatric speciation and sympatric speciation?I understand that it has to do with habitat but I am having trouble conceptualizing the differences. A simplistic analogy or metaphor to help understand the differences would be very appreciated as I am a disabled student. Thank You.
