Use each of the following species concepts to write a claim about whether the dark and light fur mice are, in fact, different species. Your claim should demonstrate your understanding of that particular species concept.
Mice with light coat colors are found in populations scattered across the southeastern US. Researchers believe the light coat color emerged in a single population.
How would a biologist explain the evolution of the light coat color in populations across the southeastern US? Briefly explain your reasoning.
Suppose that in wasps, brown wings are dominant to white wings, and 40% of all wasps in a population you’ve sampled have white wings.
a. What percentage of the wasps is heterozygous?b. What percentage of the wasps is homozygous dominant?
A population of a snake species with three skin color variations inhabited a deciduous forest in southern chile. In 2000, many trees in the forest were cut down for timber. The number of snakes of each color was monitored for the next 10 years. The results if this study are recorded in the graph below. Describe how variation affects the survival of this snake species in new environmental conditions?

- Does this model fit the idea that reproductive isolation can evolve in allopatry as just a byproduct of adaptation of each population to different environments? Why or why not?arrow_forwardWhich of the following is an advantage of sexually reproducing populations over asexually reproducing populations? A. Sexually reproducing populations produce genetically identical offspring. B. Sexually reproducing populations require partners to reproduce. C. Sexually reproducing populations are more resilient against the effects of harmful mutations. D. Sexually reproducing populations do not require partners to reproduce.arrow_forwardA preserve contains the last population of the very rare desert pupfish which is only found in one pool. There are two color forms of this pupfish, one is silver and one is black and the color is inherited. The color forms are equally successful in surviving and having offspring over the long term but the frequency of the two forms varies greatly from generation to generation. Which evolutionary force is causing the fluctuation in frequency?arrow_forward

Is mating for these traits likely to be positive or negative assortative mating? Name some traits for which you think people mate randomly. How could you test whether mating for these traits is random?arrow_forwardYou are asked to assess whether a population of endangered salamanders can adapt to warming climate in their preferred habitat. The salamanders vary at a locus that determines adaptation to temperature, and the warming climate creates selection favoring one of two alleles at that locus. Drawing on what you know about natural selection and genetic drift, what information would you need to know about the salamanders to determine whether the allele that improves their adaptation to warmer climates will become fixed in the population?
