Concept explainers

Genetic Evolution

Sexual reproduction produces distinct population variations. Heredity determines the traits and qualities to be passed down to the progeny. Over time, this variation within-species is also affected by the process of human evolution. The study of how genetic variation leads to evolutionary changes is known as genetic evolution. If a trait helps an organism to survive and reproduce, it is more likely to be passed down the generations. It is rare that such traits result in a completely distinct set of traits in descendants than the ancestral population; this can result in the emergence of a new species.

3. Briefly describe allopatric and sympatric speciation and provide a real-world example of each.
What is the main difference between dispersal and vicariance? One leads to allopatric speciation, whereas the other leads to sympatric speciation One involves the movement of the organism, and the other involves a change in the environment One depends on a genetic mutation occurring, and the other does not One involves closely related organisms, and the other involves only individuals of the same species.
An animal breeder, attempting to cross a llama with an alpaca for finer wool, found that the hybrid offspring rarely lived more than a few weeks. This outcome probably resulted from: a. genetic drift. b. prezygotic reproductive isolation. c. postzygotic reproductive isolation. d. sympatric speciation. e. polyploidy.
At the end of the first full paragraph on p. 703, Lauder and colleagues point out that closely related species can differ for two very different reasons. What are these two causes of species differences? I'm confused about what those two reasons are as I can't find the reasons.
