(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The species concept that could be applied to both sexual and asexual species

Introduction:

Species are the part of a population that shares similar traits with each other. They have the potential to interbreed and produce viable offsprings in turn. The four different types of species concept are: the typological species concept, the biological species concept, the evolutionary species concept, and the recognition species.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The most useful concept for identifying species in the field.

The four different types of species concept are: the typological species concept, the biological species concept, the evolutionary species concept, and the recognition species.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
different sexes can be confirmed by studying living species. How could you look for evidence of sexual dimorphism in the fossil record? How could you distinguish this from ontogenetic differences (i.e. juveniles vs. adults)?
Prezygotic isolating mechanisms prevent hybrid offspring from occurring between species because (a) the resulting offspring are not fertile and cannot reproduce. (b) the egg and sperm fuse and form a zygote, but it does not survive. (c) the egg and sperm do not ever meet or, if they do, cannot fuse to form a zygote. (d) all of the above
which statement is false? 1)In the context of the evolution of senescence, the aphorism "live fast and die young" means that organisms with a more risky behavior will have a shorter life span. 2)Allopatric speciation is a type of speciation process that takes place in different geographic locations.
