If a species looks superficially the same after thousands of years, the most likely explanation is:
Group of answer choices
there is no evolution happening to that population
they have evolved a level of perfection so no changes are necessary
the changes are not easily observed, such as changes in immunity or metabolism
they have not experienced any Gene Flow
Orthologous genes are duplicated genes as an accompaniment to speciation. They are duplicated genes that have lost their function.
The 1st statement is True and the 2nd statement is False.

- Which types of environments/conditions would favor sexual reproduction over asexualreproduction in a species? (select all that apply) Group of answer choices A species that is rapidly expanding into new environments. A species that has accumulated many deleterious mutations An environment that is stable and favorable An environment where a pathogen of a species is rapidly diversifyingarrow_forwardAerobic organisms are dependent on autotrophs. One reason for this dependency is that most autotrophs provide the aerobic organisms with oxygen. nitrogen gas. carbon dioxide. hydrogen. Two different species in a particular ecosystem share the same niche. What is most likely true about these two species? They are the result of an allopatric speciation event They compete intensely One is a predator, the other its prey They are the result of a sympatric speciation eventarrow_forwardFor the the organisms Orchard Spider and Allies What is the geographic distribution of each species? Is it native or invasive? indicate where it is native and if it is not native, indicate where its native range is. Write a short description of each organisms’ life history (no more than three sentences for each one). Life history facts include diet, behavior, breeding, habitat etc. After reading about the life history of the three species you are focusing on it should be relatively simple to isolate what you find most interesting about them. Write a short description about what you find most interesting about all three species you are focusing on (no more than four sentences for each species).arrow_forward
- 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 A mountain range divides a freshwater snail species into two isolated populations. Erosion eventually lowers the range and brings the two populations together again, but when they mate, the resulting hybrids all produce sterile young. This scenario is an example of allopatric speciation gradualism punctuated equilibrium extinction sympatric speciationarrow_forwardA new species seems to be forming in areas where there is geographic separation between the divergent populations. If true, this would represent an example of: Peripatric speciation Genetic drift Sympatric speciation Adaptive radiation Allopatric speciationarrow_forwardA poodle (Canis lupus familiaris) and a gray wolves (Canis lupus) can interbreed to produce viable and fertile offspring. These dogs are very similar genetically , although their are quite different in appearance. Which species concept is most likely to place poodles and wolves together into a single species?

Its individuals appear different from other species. b. It is reproductively isolated from other species. c. Its populations can interbreed. d. Fertile offspring are produced.arrow_forwardFigure 18.23 Which of the following statements is false? Punctuated equilibrium is most likely to occur in a small population that experiences a rapid change in its environment. Punctuated equilibrium is most likely to occur in a large population that lives in a stable climate. Gradual speciation is most likely to occur in species that live in a stable climate. Gradual speciation and punctuated equilibrium both result in the evolution of new species.arrow_forward
