Which of the following statements about sympatric speciation is correct?
It is a process through which two populations can diverge and develop reproductive isolation while in two different geographic area.
It is the most common mechanism for populations to form independent species.
Postzygotic isolation is the main form of reproductive isolation for the sympatric speciation process.
Genetic isolation through large scale chromosomal mutations, such as chromosome inversion or polyploidy, are more likely contributing to sympatric speciation.
None of the above

How might emigration of squirrels with gray fur from this population affect the gene frequency of G and g in this population of squirrels? How might immigration of leucistic squirrels into this population affect the gene frequency of G and g in this population of squirrels? How might you simulate the effect of each of these scenarios if you were to repeat this simulation activity?arrow_forward

O a) Frequency of the heterozygous genotype will increase. b) Frequency of the homozygous genotypes will decrease. O c) Frequency of the homozygous genotypes will increase. O d) There will be no change in genotype frequency.arrow_forwardThrough the human introduction of invasive species and forced migration of various species such as pack mules, elk, and hog-nosed skunks into the Kaibab squirrels’ habitat, scientists hypothesize two outcomes that might occur to the squirrel population. Examine the following null hypotheses formulated to explain rates of speciation and extinction of the Kaibab squirrel population as an influx of species continues to migrate into their niche. Null Hypothesis: The rate of speciation (C) remains steady when species compete for available resources while all will continue toward extinction (B). Which of the following graphically depicts the alternative hypotheses?arrow_forward
- Over time, enough genetic variations can develop within a population to cause it to undergo speciation. Identify the various mechanisms that will prevent different species from being able to reproduce successfully. Which of these mechanisms is the most influential in keeping species sperate?arrow_forwardWhat is the key difference between prezygotic and postzygotic isolating mechanisms? Give an example of each type. Which type is more costly from the perspective of energy?arrow_forwardThe approximately 600 species of cichlids in East Africa’s Lake Victoria have largely resulted from sympatric speciation. The closely related cichlids species P. pundamilia and P. nyererei are thought to have arisen by sexual selection. Mate choice by females strongly favors males of their own species that have different body colors. In recent years, pollution has caused the water of Lake Victoria to become turbid in some areas. Hybrids of P. pundamilia and P. nyererei were produced and the gene pools of the two species have started to fuse, creating a new hybrid species. In this process, what are the conditions that led to the fusion of P. pundamilia and P. nyererei? A. Only the prezygotic reproductive barrier is not complete for the two species. B. Only the postzygotic reproductive barrier is not complete for the two species. C. Both the prezygotic and the postzygotic reproductive barriers are complete for the two species. D. Both the prezygotic and the postzygotic reproductive…arrow_forward
