- Which of the following traits is more associated with an Opportunistic (Equilibrial) species? Which of the following traits is more associated with an Opportunistic (Equilibrial) species? A. Short maturation time B. Producing offspring at many different times over the course of life C. Producing a lot of eggs at one time D. High juvenile mortality E. High level of parental carearrow_forwardA defining characteristic of allopatric speciation is Group of answer choices A. Geographic isolation. B. Aasexually reproducing populations. C. Occurance of natural selection. D. The appearance of new species within the distribution range of the parental species.arrow_forwardIn nature, when a lone male lion encounters a pride (a group of lions with a male leader), the two males will often fight to become head of the pride. It has been documented that if the foreign lion wins the battle, he will usually kill the offspring of the weaker lion’s pride. This natural selection process best describes; Select one: a. Fitness within species b. Bottleneck effect c. Macroevolution d. Microevolution e. Speciationarrow_forward

A. allopatric populations than in peripatric populations. C. sympatric populations than in allopatric populations. B. allopatric populations than in sympatric populationarrow_forwardSuppose two species of morning glories are reproductively isolated because in one species the flowers bloom in early April and in the other species they flower in mid-May. This would be an example of _______ isolation, which is a form of _______ isolation. a. habitat; prezygotic b. temporal; prezygotic c. temporal; postzygotic d. behavioral; postzygotic e. habitat; postzygoticarrow_forwardTwo very similar cricket species in the Amazon basin occur on opposite sides of the Amazon river (crickets can’t swim). What type of speciation process probably caused them to split into two forms? Group of answer choices a. sympatric b. allopatric c. reinforcement d. fusion e. stable hybrid zonearrow_forward
- Many species of birds choose their mates based on how brightly colored they are. If feather color is heritable, how would this violate the assumptions required for a population to be in Hardy-Weinberg equillibrium? HW equilibrium would cause mutations in such a species. A. This is a founder effect В. This is a bottleneck effect C. OD. Mating is non-random. Alleles for brightly colored phenotypes might become more common in the species and allele frequency would change.arrow_forwardClimate change and glacial advances during the Pleistocene ice age (2.6 million to 11,700 years ago) split the ranges of several North American bird species into western and eastern populations. The western and eastern populations eventually diverged into two species. What is this an example of? A. Allopatric speciation following dispersal B. Allopatric speciation via vicariance C. Sympatric speciation due to balancing selection D. Sympatric speciation via autopolyploidy E. Sympatric speciation via allopolyploidyarrow_forwardWhich of the following could result in allopatric speciation? A. Two populations of a species are separated by a river that they are unable to cross. B. Two populations of a species are separated by a field that is too dry during the summertime. C. One group within a population mates during the evenings and another during the mornings. D. One group within a population develops a new mating ritual that is not recognized by the other.arrow_forward
