What is the nature of the reproductive barrier between a species that mates at dawn (sunrise) and a species that mates at dusk (sunset)? gametic temporal habitat behavioral mechanical One insect species mates on goldenrod flowers, while a second species mates on autumn daisies. The two species are mechanically compatible and the flowers bloom at the same time, but the insects do not interbreed. This is an example of __________ isolation. temporal habitat gametic mechanical behavioral

Two related species of salamanders were found living on opposite sides of a mountain. One species lives in along a shady forest stream on the leaf covered-ground and is brown with dark green spots. The other species live along the bright, sandy banks of a larger river is light tan in color. What is most likely cause of the difference between these two species of salamander? Group of answer choices Competition Predation Mating seasons Different habitats
The endangered Amargosa River pupfish (Cyprinodon nevadensis amargosae) lives in Death Valley, where different populations of the species live in total isolation from one another in tiny permanent pools and short stream segments (Lema and Nevitt 2004). Although these populations have been separated from one another for only 400 to 4000 years, males in some places aggressively defend territories and court females drawn to them, while males in other populations are not aggressive toward one another and do not defend territories. How could these changes occur so rapidly? How might you establish experimentally that the hormone arginine vasotocin (AVT) decreases aggressive behavior in pupfish? If the hormone does lower aggression in this species, what predictions could you make about AVT or about AVT receptor protein differences between territorial and nonterritorial males of the same species? please don't write from any online source
Imagine two populations of penguins live in the same ecosystem. One population begins to exchange stones as a mating ritual while the other population begins to dance by shifting from one foot to the other. Individuals from each population will only mate with individuals that display the appropriate mating ritual. Which type of reproductive isolation mechanism does this scenario describe? Geographic Isolation Habitat Isolation Temporal Isolation Behavioral Isolation
Population divergence occurring as a result of females in a species consistently choosing males of a particular color is an example of ecological speciation Haldane's Rule genetic drift sexual selection
Many species of birds have elaborate mating rituals that include bird calls, nest construction, and courtship displays. A researcher is comparing two populations of birds with similar morphology that live in similar niches. Male birds in one population build a nest before attempting to court a female, while males in the other population build the nest in cooperation with the female. Is it likely the researcher will classify these birds as the same species?
Suppose two species of morning glories are reproductively isolated because in one species the flowers bloom in early April and in the other species they flower in mid-May. This would be an example of _______ isolation, which is a form of _______ isolation. a. habitat; prezygotic b. temporal; prezygotic c. temporal; postzygotic d. behavioral; postzygotic e. habitat; postzygotic
Florida Scrub Jays live in extended family groups in which one pair breeds and all of their relatives help take care of the chicks. At night all the members of a family would perch near the nest. What spatial distribution would this represent? Group of answer choices -clumped -over dispersed -random -complicated
If two salamanders from different species cannot mate because one mates in spring and the other in fall, this is what kind of isolation? Group of answer choices A. behavioral B. mechanical C. habitat D. temporal E. gametic
You are surveying of the turtle species identifies several breeding populations in different habitats across the island. After a very warm summer of 2020, you observe that the hatchlings from low-elevation nests are mostly males, whereas hatchlings from higher elevations have an equal female-to-male sex ratio. As a bit more background, temperature influences the sex ratio in some turtle species, a phenomenon called temperature-sex determination (TSD). With this knowledge, you hypothesize this new turtle species exhibits TSD, and that eggs incubated at low elevations during the warm year experienced a high enough embryonic temperature to skew the sex ratio. To test this, you collect 20 newly laid eggs in early 2021 & take them back to the lab to conduct an experiment to test your hypothesis that this species exhibits TSD. Assume you know the average nest temperature in the wild, and you have access to multiple incubators Design an experiment to test the hypothesis that this turtle…

You arrive on an alien planet and settle down to live there for a long time. There are very few species. Two of the species (A and B) are sometimes common and sometimes rare. When you start keeping track of population changes you discover that the population sizes fluctuate on a regular cycle in close synchrony. Species B always increases first, followed by species A. Which of the following would be the best explanation for what you are seeing? Group of answer choices -Species A is a predator and there is a time lag between changes in the density of its prey and species A's population change -Species A is a predator and it can respond instantly to changes in its prey population -Species B is a predator and there is a time lag between changes in the density of its prey and species B's population change -Species B is a predator and it can respond instantly to changes in its prey population
Three types of distribution patterns occur in wild populations of plants and animals. They are uniform, random, and clumped. Choose from the drop down menus the statements and examples of populations provided to identify the correct distribution patterns. Statements: Organisms are grouped together; occurs in highly competitive environments. No pattern exists in organism distribution; occurs in environments with little competition. Organisms are equally spaced apart; occurs in artificial environments. Examples: Orange trees grow in rows on an orange plantation. A large group of herring fish travel to their spawning grounds. Oyster larvae are dispersed over hundreds of kilometres by strong sea currents.
