Choose all that apply.- live in same habitat - have same niche - produce viable offspring - have similar genetics - look similar - produce fertile offspring - have similar ancestryarrow_forward
- Say you found another isolated pond about a mile from your first pond. This second isolated pond contains a population of 50,000 Danio kerri. You take a female fish from pond #1 and a male fish from pond #2. They look the same; they mate and produce fertile offspring. This suggests that these fish are members of _______ based on the ______. Group of answer choices the same species; biological species concept AND morphological species concept the same species; biological species concept (only) different species; morphological species concept AND biological species concept the same species; morphological species concept (only) different species; morphological species concept (only)arrow_forwardWhich species concept is based on reproductive isolation? Group of answer choices A. biological B. morphological C. ecological D. phylogeneticarrow_forwardWhat is Sympatric speciation? A) When a population is separated from the main group by a barrier and becomes a new species B) When a population mutates into a new species C) When a population develops into a new species without any physical barriers to isolate themarrow_forward
- What is the ecological definition of a species? A) A group of individuals that can breed and produce viable offspring B) A group of interbreeding individuals that share the same environment C) A group of individuals that share a common ancestorarrow_forwardA pair of birds flies to a deserted island and establishes a colony. Over time, this population evolves into a new species. This is an example of a. allopatric speciation. c. sympatric speciation. b. parapatric speciation. d. all of the above.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is false? a. Gradual speciation is most likely to occur in a large population that lives in a stable climate. b. Punctuated equilibrium is unlikely to occur in a large population that lives in a stable climate. c. Gradual speciation and punctuated equilibrium both result in the divergence of species. d. Gradual speciation is most likely to occur in a small population that experiences a rapid change in its environment.arrow_forward
- What is Allopatric speciation? A) When a population is separated from the main group by a barrier and becomes a new species B) When a population mutates into a new species C) When a population develops into a new species without any physical barriers to isolate themarrow_forwardWhat is a reason that speciation can occur? Organisms within a species are brought into closer proximity by a physical barrier. Organisms within an ecosystem make adaptions that involve different breeding times or interactions. Organisms develop traits that are not beneficial to their survival, and these traits are passed from generation to generation. Organisms develop traits that are beneficial and pass on the same traits to all future generations within the same species.arrow_forwardAll species, both past and present, are related to one another through a(n) ______ history.arrow_forward
