Clausen and colleagues proposed two hypotheses to explain this variation within a species: (1) There are genetic differences between populations of plants found at different elevations. (2) The species has developmental flexibility and can assume tall or short growth forms, depending on local abiotic factors. If you had seeds from yarrow plants found at low and high elevations, what experiments would you perform to test these hypotheses?
Select the three experiments.
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
Would you predict that the Pingelapesepopulation is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? How would you measure this?

- Sympatric speciation by allotetraploidy has been proposed as acommon mechanism for speciation. Let’s suppose you were interestedin the origin of certain grass species in southern California.Experimentally, how would you go about determining if some ofthe grass species are the result of allotetraploidy?arrow_forwardImagine that researchers are studying 2 populations of a hypothetical flowering plant, Darwinius beardii. Individual plants of population "A" grow to an average height of 25 cm, while those of population "B" average 40 cm. The flowers of population "A" are light purple and open in mid-April, while those of population "B" are dark purple with white spots and open in early May. These 2 populations are geographically separated by a large river, and geological and molecular genetic evidence suggests that they have been separated for at least 10 million years, during which time evolutionary divergence has occured. Yet, when individuals from each population are brought into the lab, they readily mate with individuals of the other population. Under which species concept(s) would the plants of the 2 populations be considered the SAME species? O A. Biological species concept O B. Phenetic species concept O C. Phylogenetic species concept O D. both the Phenetic and Phylogenetic species conceptsarrow_forwardPlease solvearrow_forward
- 1) A mathematical (differential equation) representation for a metapopulation can be written as dp/dt = cp(1- p) - ep where p is the proportion of patches occupied at time t, c is the rate of patch colonization, and e is the rate of patch extinction. The term on the left hand side is the ‘rate of change in the proportion of patches occupied.’ The first term on the right hand side of the equation provides the effective gain in patch occupancy as a function of p due to the colonization process, and the term in parentheses represents the fraction of patches not currently occupied. The second right hand side term provides the effective loss of patch occupancy due to the (local) extinction process. a) Look at the term for the colonization process. How would you modify this term if you wanted to capture the idea that habitat loss destroyed (i.e., made uninhabitable) a proportion D from the patches that are available for colonization ? b) What value of D guarantees complete extinction of…arrow_forward1. What is speciation? 2. What is a “hybrid zone”? 3. What postzygotic barriers are often found in hybrid zones that result in a lack of species fusion? 4.

How can you explain this distribution pattern? I’m addition, most species that have been identified are almost indistinguishable from other species and yet vary few hybrids have ever been observed.
