Textbook Question
Chapter 24.3, Problem 2CC
WHAT IF? Ø Consider two species that diverged while geographically separated but resumed contact before reproductive isolation was complete. Predict the outcome over time if the two species mated indiscriminately and (a) hybrid offspring survived and reproduced more poorly than offspring from intraspecific matings or (b) hybrid offspring survived and reproduced as well as offspring from intraspecific matings.

Students have asked these similar questions
What data would suggest that a species evolutionary history includes sexual selection as a mechanism that helped shape the species?
If males and females are significantly different from each other (sexual dimporphism)
If males and females form different social groups (i.e. herds are formed from either males or females but not both)
If some males reproduce with multiple females while other males do not reproduce
If males engage in "risky" behavior
Which 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.
Decide whether each of the following scenarios would lead to prezygotic or postzygotic reproductive
isolation:
a) Dragonflies from two different populations have genitals that do not match, so they can't mate
successfully [Select ]
b) Two different species of fish have very different courtship displays, but they can mate and produce a
non-fertile offspring [Select]
c) One species of plant flowers in the winter, while another flowers in early spring
[ Select ]
d) The gametes of two tree species can fuse, but a zygote does not form
[ Select ]
e) A mountain range separates two populations of snakes

- Select all that apply. Beetles from two geographically isolated populations are captured and brought to the lab. When an adult male from one population and an adult female from the other population are placed together, they mate, and the female lay eggs a couple of days later. The eggs hatch, the beetles develop into adults but are sterile. Which of the following are true? This is an example of post-zygotic reproductive isolation. O Sexual selection is likely responsible. O This is an example of pre-zygotic reproductive isolation. O Dobzhansky-Muller genetic incompatibility is likely responsible. Question 3 Choose all that apply. Which of the following are true of adaptive radiations? OAdaptive radiations involve relatively rapid speciation. The evolution of the Hawaiian silverswords is an example of an adaptive radiation.

- Suppose the phylogenetic species concept (PSC) were preferred over other species concepts, such as the BSC. What would be the implications for (a) discourse on the evolutionary mechanisms of speciation; (b) studies of species diversity in ecological communities; (c) estimates of species diversity on a worldwide basis; and (d) conservation practices under such legal frameworks as the U.S. Endangered Species Act?arrow_forwardIf the phylogenetic species concept (PSC) were used to define species, rather than the biological species concept (BSC), how might that change the estimates of species diversity (numbers of species) on a worldwide basis? True or False: Estimates of species diversity are likely to change if the PSC is used. In particular, one would expect the number of species to increase. This is because individuals from divergent allopatric populations that can potentially interbreed would belong to the same species under the BSC. These same organisms would be classified as members of different species under the PSC.arrow_forwardPlease Help mearrow_forward
