Summary Introduction
To explain: How the differences of sexual selection in strawberry poison dart frogs (Dendrobates pumilio) could arise and affect the evolution of reproductive isolation in allopatric versus sympatric populations.
Concept introduction:
Strawberry poison-dart frogs (Dendrobates pumilio) are found in Central America mainly in the Costa Rica and adjacent mainland of Panama. Pumiliotoxin which is the main toxin in these frogs is due to their dietary intake of formicine ants. These frogs exhibit an amazing array of color variation which is considered to be the basis of intraspecific male mating calls which lead to ultimately fall the entire population into one species.

Fill in the table below with the expected characteristics of r vs K selected species. r-selected species K-selected species Timing of maturation Longevity Parental care Number of offspring Size of offspring 6b. Based on your table, would a species that provides long-term parental care and has few offspring be considered an r-selected or K-selected species? What is an example of such a species? 6c. Why is long-term parental care associated with having few offspring during a reproductive episode?arrow_forwardPlease use and cite any source(s) you can find to answer the following questions:1. List and describe the different ways in which species are defined.2.

- I need help identifying which assumption of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is most affected, then indicating whether what is being described will act to establish or violate equilibrium, and lastly, whether the statement will increase or decrease that population’s genetic variation. Corals synchronize spawning to occur on a single night during a particular tidal event, such as a spring tide. On that night individuals release sperm and eggs into the water, which then form zygotes. Larvae are carried off by currents and settle elsewhere. What assumption is this breeding style affecting and what will it do to VG of that coral species?arrow_forwardn which situation would it make sense to use the morphological species concept? When you are able to collect data about how individuals in your study use their habitat, but you are unable to determine if they interbreed When working with fossils from extinct organisms When you only have genetic data about each organism in your study When you are not able to collect data about how individuals in your study use their habitat, but you are able to collect reproductive dataarrow_forwardWhich of the following forms of reproductive isolation illustrates a prezygotic barrier to gene flow? O Species A forms hybrids with species B and the hybrids are able to breed back with either of the two parent species to produce healthy fertile offspring. O Two closely related birds, the lazuli bunting and indigo bunting, sing similar songs to attract mates and even though human ears can not distinguish them the females never make wrong choices in choosing who to mate with. O Two species of turtles living in a large lake have different ecological requirements and never interact. O Several species of corrals in a Honduras corral reef release gametes about the same time but inter- specific attraction of gametes does not occur. O All but one of these illustrates a type of prezygotic barrier to gene flow.arrow_forward

They have similar coloration and live in the same habitat. Although they are physically able to mate, there are no offspring that survive embryologic development. What can you conclude about the banana slugs? * O Pre-zygotic barriers have forced them to be separate species. They are in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. O Microevolution is occurring in both variations. O They are two separate species.arrow_forwardFixity of Species refers to… Group of answer choices A-the theory that species exist at a fixed location along a physiological continuum B-the fact that species are defined by fixed adaptations to their direct environment C-the theory presented by Thomas Malthus that population densities of any given species are most affected by mortality and fertility rates D-the pre-darwinian notion that species, once created, can never change E-the late 19th century concept that because mendelian traits are fixed they are evidence that variation within and between species are designed by God specifically for those speciesarrow_forward
