Which of the following is not an event that can contribute to allopatric speciation?
a.
A mountain range forms and splits two populations into populations that begin to turn into new species.
b.
A subset of individuals disperse to a far away island and begin to turn into a new species.
c.
Two populations breed in the same location but at different times, and therefore begin to turn into two new species.
d.
A river splits a population into two populations and the two populations begin to diverge on either side of the river.
e.
All of these are potential contributors to allopatric speciation.
Indicate whether each of the following conditions would tend to cause speciation to occur faster (F),
or if it would tend to slow down or prevent speciation (S). Put either an F or an S in each box.
A. a small sub-group of a population becomes geographically isolated from the main population and
experiences new environmental conditions
B. a large population of herbivores lives in an environmental where the conditions have remained
stable over a long period of time
C. a colony of monkeys clinging to floating debris is washed out to sea by a storm and lands on an
island with diverse habitats, abundant food, but without any other primates
D. a large population of a migratory species splits up every year and takes different routes to their
common mating territory

a.The new species may have traits that allow it to inhibit environments different from both parental species.
b.The new species is always an intermediate of the two parental species
c.The new species may have greater genetic diversity and greater trait diversity than the parental species.
d.None of the above
What are the two ways of looking into evolution in detail?
a.Micro frequency change and ascent with modification
b.Genotypic and phenotypic modification

Natural selection increases the frequencies of advantageous alleles and decreases deleterious alleles' frequencies. What are the three categories of natural selection depending on the favored traits?

- Which of the following may be true of two species that are a result of allopatric speciation? Select all that apply. a They will be genotypically similar. b They will be phenotypically similar. c They can produce viable offspring. d They will be geographically isolated.arrow_forwardA population of lizards colonizes a region and feeds on small arthropod species. Over time, a small group within the population starts eating different types of worms. Over time, this group develops inherited traits that help them catch, eat, and digest the worms. The two lizard groups share the same habitat but no longer recognize each other’s mating calls. What does this scenario best describe? A. speciation without geographic isolation B. natural selection without speciation C. increased genetic variation without speciation D. decreased genetic variation with geographic isolationarrow_forwardHybridization between incompletely isolated populations a. always leads to reinforcement due to the inferiority of hybrids. b. can serve as a mechanism for preserving gene flow between populations, thus preventing speciation. c. only occurs in plants. d. never affects rates of speciation.arrow_forward
- Which 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_forwardWhich of the following is an example of sympatric speciation? Group of answer choices a. birds moving to the far side of a mountain range b. squirrel populations on opposite sides of the Grand Canyon c. insects moving to new host plant species d. fish in two different lakesarrow_forwardIf gene flow between two populations stops, which of the following could occur given enough time? a. speciation b. the population each gain unique alleles c. the timing of reproduction changes ending their ability to interbreed d. frequencies of alleles shift in different ways e. these are all things that could occur if gene flow between two populations of one species ended, given enough timearrow_forward
- Assume you are studying two species of lizard that occur in sympatry. In allopatry, Lizard Species A is dark brown but in sympatry is black in color. In allopatry, Lizard Species B is brown but in sympatry is light brown. This example is best described as which of the following? a. Postzygotic Isolation b. Character displacement c. Sympatric speciation d. Genetic incompatibility e. Hybridizationarrow_forwardWhich of the following statements describes an example of genetic drift?a. Allele g for fat production increases in a small population because birds with more bodyfat have higher survivorship in a harsh winter.b. Random mutation increases the frequency of allele A in one population but not inanother.c. Allele R reaches a frequency of 1.0 because individuals with genotype rr are sterile.d. Allele m is lost when a virus kills all but a few individuals and just by chance, none ofthe survivors possess allele m.arrow_forwardConsider this example. Shorebirds on the Eastern coast of North America feed on the mollusks and tiny crabs along the shore. Birds with tougher beaks are better adapted to crack open the shells of the mollusks, and birds with sharper beaks are better adapted to pierce the shells of crabs. Over time, the shorebirds become two separate species that no longer breed with one another. What type of speciation has occurred? A. Sympatric speciation B. Adaptive speciation C. Microevolution speciation D. Allopatric speciationarrow_forward
- In nature, when a lone male lion encounters a pride (a group of lions with a male leader), the two males will often fight to become head of the pride. It has been documented that if the foreign lion wins the battle, he will usually kill the offspring of the weaker lion’s pride. This natural selection process best describes; Select one: a. Fitness within species b. Bottleneck effect c. Macroevolution d. Microevolution e. Speciationarrow_forwardIdentify the most accurate statement about population variation. a. Allopolyploidy occurs when chromosomes fail to separate during gametogenesis and then self-fertilization results in a tetraploid offspring. b. Chromosomal duplications and deletions cause large changes due to the changes in gene dosage. c. Traits that are influenced by both environment and genetics are unlikely to be influenced by evolution. d. Gene duplications and deletions occur frequently during equal crossing over that occurs during meiosis I.arrow_forwardWould each of the following examples of reproductive isolation be considered a prezygotic or postzygotic mechanism? A. Horses and donkeys can interbreed to produce mules, but the mules are infertile. B. Three species of the orchid genus Dendrobium produce flowers 8 days, 9 days, and 11 days after a rainstorm. The flowers remain open for 1 day. C. Two species of fish release sperm and eggs into seawater at the same time, but the sperm of one species do not fertilize the eggs of the other species. D. Two tree frogs, Hyla chrysoscelis (diploid) and Hyla versicolor (tetraploid), can produce viable offspring, but the offspring are sterile.arrow_forward
