Summary Introduction

To name: Two types of speciation represented in the diagram and also to describe for each type in what way the reproductive barriers might have developed between the new species.

Concept introduction:

The speciation is an evolutionary process by which new species are formed. It can occur due to geographic, behavioral, anatomical and physiological factors.

The new species formed differ from their ancestors and cannot interbreed with their ancestral species to produce viable offspring.

Explanation of Solution

The type of speciation represented in the diagram (a) is allopatric speciation and in (b) is sympatric speciation.

The allopatric speciation occurs when two populations of a species are separated by a physical barrier such as a mountain or a hill. The gene flow between the two populations is stopped and over the time they become reproductively isolated due to natural selection, mutation or genetic drift.

In sympatric speciation, a new species arise from an ancestral species, while occupying the same geographical region. The two populations become reproductively isolated due to polyploidy, habitat differentiation and sexual selection.

Pictorial representation: Fig. 1 shows two types of speciation: (a) Allopatric speciation (b) Sympatric speciation.

San Andreas Transform Boundary Plate Motion The geologic map below of southern California shows the position of the famous San Andreas Fault, a transform plate boundary between the North American Plate (east side) and the Pacific Plate (west side). The relative motion between the plates is indicated by the half arrows along the transform plate boundary (i.e., the Pacific Plate is moving to the northwest relative to the North American Plate). Note the two bodies of Oligocene volcanic rocks (labeled Ov) on the map in the previous page located along either side of the San Andreas Fault. These rocks are about 23.5 million years old and were once one body of rock. They have been separated by displacement along the fault. 21. Based on the offset of these volcanic rocks, what is the average annual rate of relative plate motion in cm/yr?
