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.

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 I Select]
