Chapter 15, Problem 1SQ
Summary Introduction

Concept Introduction: Species are populations that can interbreed amongst themselves. Species can be Isolating mechanism act on the species. Isolating mechanisms shows that sometimes species cannot interbreed due to geographic barriers and that later lead to evolution.

Answer to Problem 1SQ

Correct answer:  “Species that have overlapping geographic ranges but do not interbreed in nature are said to be reproductively isolated.” Therefore, option b. is correct

Explanation of Solution

Reasons for correct statement:

Reproductive isolations prevent the species that earlier interbred to interbreed again post reproductive isolating mechanism that is part of natural evolutionary mechanisms. Reproductive isolating mechanisms lead to speciation. Reproductive isolation is of two types: prezygotic and postzygotic isolations. They might have overlapping geographical areas but still cannot interbreed and even if it occurs, the resulting offspring are sterile.

Option b. is given as “reproductively isolated”

As, species that have overlapping geographic ranges but do not interbreed in nature are said to be reproductively isolated, option b. is correct.

Reasons for the incorrect statements:

Option a. is given as “geographically isolated”.

In geographical isolation, the two species will not have overlapping geographical areas. So, option a. in incorrect.

Option c. is given as “influenced by genetic drift”.

Genetic drift occurs in small populations that are separated from the main population from which they migrated. So, option c. is incorrect.

Option d. is given as “hybrids”.

When two different species of the same genus that intra-breed they produce hybrids that are sterile. So, option d. is incorrect.

Hence, options a., c., and d. are incorrect.

Conclusion
Reproductive isolations prevent the species that earlier interbred to interbreed again post reproductive isolating mechanism that is part of natural evolutionary mechanisms.

Glitazones reduce insulin resistance by binding to a transcription factor in adipocytes, thereby reducing thesecretion of fatty acids. Glitazones are taken orally (in pill form). Using pharmacokinetic modeling, deriveequations to describe how the concentration of glitazones varies in the plasma as a function of time. Yourequations should be of the form: dCglitazone /dt = something, or dMglitazone /dt = something. Your model shouldinclude three compartments: the gut, the plasma, and the fatty tissues. Make sure to include a diagram thatillustrates your thinking, state all assumptions, and define your variables. Do not solve the equations.
Case Study—Ella Review the case study and then answer Parts A through F. Ella has a family history of diabetes. She wants to follow a healthful eating pattern that can lower her risk for developing this condition. Her dietitian recommends a goal of 450 to 600 kcal per meal and advises Ella to follow the Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range (AMDR) for carbohydrates and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2015-2020, which recommend limiting added sugar. She also recommends that Ella choose whole grains rather than processed grains. Ella decides to pack a lunch to take to work every day.
