- 14) Hybridization was not originally recognized as a mechanism of speciation by either Darwin or the researchers of the "new synthesis". However, today there are many examples of species that have originated through hybridization. What is the best explanation for why we have so many examples of species originating through hybridization? A) Hybridization is more likely to occur in regions where scientists have put in more effort studying speciation B) Hybridization occurs fairly regularly, and when it leads to new species only takes a few generations, which is fast enough for researchers to see fairly easily C) Hybridization is fairly easy to study in captivity D) Hybridization has been carried out frequently by farmers attempting to produce new, better species to grow 15) Anthropologist who study human evolution genetically have determined that populations of our species have gone through"founder effect" type events.
