Gene Flow
Gene flow, also known as gene migration, is the introduction of genetic material from a particular population to another population of the same species through interbreeding. For example, a bee facilitates its reproductive process by carrying pollen from…
Population Biology
Population biology is the study of patterns in organism populations, specifically the growth and management of population size, population genetics, the evolution of life history, species interactions, and demography.
Speciation
The process of speciation involves the formation of new species during evolution. The new species evolve in such a way that both new and old species are not able to interbreed. Thus, speciation occurs when few members of one species get separated from th…
Allele Fixation
A gene is a unit of heredity and contains both physical and functional information that shapes an individual. Genes are made up of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), which carry genetic information from one generation to another, from one set of parents to the…

Summary Introduction

To determine: The number of insect species on Earth.

Introduction: Insect is the major invertebrate group in the phylum Arthropoda. Rough estimates have always been drawn to calculate the total number of species present on the earth.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The number of insect species found worldwide, based on the percentage of beetles among all insect species

Introduction: The total number of any species in the world is always a rough estimate. These numbers can vary from real data. An estimation about the number of the species can be relative and be made by studying a patch of the land. The conclusions can then be used to make a rough guess about the species.
