Clausen and colleagues proposed two hypotheses to explain this variation within a species: (1) There are genetic differences between populations of plants found at different elevations. (2) The species has developmental flexibility and can assume tall or short growth forms, depending on local abiotic factors. If you had seeds from yarrow plants found at low and high elevations, what experiments would you perform to test these hypotheses?
Select the three experiments.

A)establishing corridors between habitat fragments B) removing the barriers to dispersal C) capturing and translocating individuals every generation D) any of the actions listed herearrow_forwardQ6.9. Consider the following hypothetical scenario: An ancestral species of duck had a varied diet that included aquatic plants and terrestrial plants and insects. These ducks spent time on both land and water. Individuals of this species varied in the amount of webbing in their feet, with some individuals having more webbing and some having less. As many years went by, the environment changed such that the aquatic food sources were much more plentiful than those on land. Many generations later, almost all ducks had more webbing on their feet. How is this best explained? Ducks with less webbing worked harder than ducks with more webbing to eat aquatic plants. The more they used their feet, the more webbed their feet became, so they got enough food to survive and reproduce. Due to chance mutations, all the ducks' feet in the next generation had more webbing. They were therefore able to eat aquatic plants and get enough food to survive and reproduce. Ducks with more webbing were better…arrow_forwardUse the following passage to answer the next 5 questions. You are studying the intertidal zone of a previously unstudied island. You find three species of barnacles on the rocks. Species A is most abundant in the upper intertidal zone, Species B in the middle, and Species C in the lower, as shown below. Species A dominates Upper intertidal zone Species B dominates Middle intertidal zone Species C dominates Lower intertidal zone Q6. You conduct an exclusion experiment: You locate three experimental areas on rock faces that are the same size and span all three intertidal zones (upper, middle, and lower). In each experimental area, you exclude all but one species of barnacle for the duration of the experiment, as illustrated in the diagram below. The diagram also shows the numbers of individuals for the unexcluded species in each intertidal zone at the end of your experiment. Based on the data, whatarrow_forward
