- A population of fuzzy-wumpkins differ in how fuzzy their fur is. Populations in cold climates are fuzzier than in warm climates. Fuzzy-wumpkins mate for life.You transplant a reproductive pair of fuzzy-wumpkins from a warm climate into a cold climate, and a second pair from the cold climate into the warm climate. As a control you also transplant a reproductive pair from warm climate back to the warm climate and from the cold climate back to the cold climate. You then measure the fuzziness of the fur of offspring that were produced by each pair. Part A: If the fuzziness trait had a strong genetic component (e.g. high heritability) what pattern would you find between parent fuzziness and offspring fuzziness. (Figure A, B, or C based on image attached) Part B: The figure below presents the results of the transplant experiment. The x-axis shows the transplantation site for each reproductive pair. The y-axis shows the fuzziness of their offspring. The color in the bars shows the origin site…arrow_forwardTwo species of plants grow along a mountain slope. One species grows mainly at low altitudes, and the other grows mainly at higher altitudes. Occasionally, the two species hybridize producing hybrids that are better suited than the parental species to grow at intermediate altitudes. This scenario would lead to Question 7 options: reinforcement autopolyploidy a stable hybrid zone hybrid breakdown the fusion of the two speciesarrow_forwardA snake naturally found on land does not mate with a snake naturally found in water due to: Postzygotic barriers Behavioral isolation Mechanical isolation Habitat isolationarrow_forward

Is mating for these traits likely to be positive or negative assortative mating? Name some traits for which you think people mate randomly.
