Summary Introduction

To determine: Theeffect of sympatric and allopatric speciation on adaptive radiation.

Introduction: Evolution is the change in the phenotypic or genotypic characters of the species as a whole with passing generations; this can take place due to several internal and external factors.

Explanation of Solution

Adaptive radiation is an important concept in evolutionary biology. The adaptive radiation is one of the few processes that allow the divergence or convergence of two or more species. Adaptive radiation requires both allopatric and sympatric speciation along with adaptation to different habitats. Speciation mainly occurs allopatrically and leads to rising of species that colonize other islands producing multiple species per island.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The relationship between the sympatric speciation and character displacement.

Introduction: Evolution of organism results into various types of accumulations in the genes of an organism that enable an individual to adapt in the changing environment.

Explanation of Solution

Sympatric speciation also occurs during the course of multiple generation because of disruptive selection and can result in the population to contain individuals exhibiting two different phenotypes. The instantaneous sympatric speciation occurs when an individual born is reproductively isolated from all other members of its species. A mutation that would cause an individual to be different from other members of species result in pleiotropic effects and subsequently end in adaptive radiation.

After you feel comfortable with your counting method and identifying cells in the various stages of mitosis, use the four images below of whitefish blastula to count the cells in each stage until you reach 100 total cells, recording your data below in Data Table 1. (You may not need to use all four images. Stop counting when you reach 100 total cells.) After totaling the cells in each stage, calculate the percent of cells in each stage. (Divide total of stage by overall total of 100 and then multiply by 100 to obtain percentage.)   Data Table 1Stage    Totals    PercentInterphase        Mitosis:        Prophase        Metaphase        Anaphase        Telophase        Cytokinesis        Totals    100    100% To find the length of time whitefish blastula cells spend in each stage, multiply the percent (recorded as a decimal, in other words take the percent number and divide by 100) by 24 hours. (Example: If percent is 20%, then Time in Hours = .2 * 24 = 4.8) Record your data in Data…
