Which of the following is not an event that can contribute to allopatric speciation?   a. A mountain range forms and splits two populations into populations that begin to turn into new species.    b. A subset of individuals disperse to a far away island and begin to turn into a new species.    c. Two populations breed in the same location but at different times, and therefore begin to turn into two new species.    d. A river splits a population into two populations and the two populations begin to diverge on either side of the river.    e. All of these are potential contributors to allopatric speciation.
A defining characteristic of sympatric speciation is a.The appearance of new species in the midst of old ones b.Asexually reproducing populations c.Geographic isolation. d.Large populations
Indicate whether each of the following conditions would tend to cause speciation to occur faster (F), or if it would tend to slow down or prevent speciation (S). Put either an F or an S in each box. A. a small sub-group of a population becomes geographically isolated from the main population and experiences new environmental conditions B. a large population of herbivores lives in an environmental where the conditions have remained stable over a long period of time C. a colony of monkeys clinging to floating debris is washed out to sea by a storm and lands on an island with diverse habitats, abundant food, but without any other primates D. a large population of a migratory species splits up every year and takes different routes to their common mating territory
