Question
Choose True for yes and False for no, for each of the statements 1) The distribution of the two species-C populations cannot be explained by two totally independent dispersal events by the common ancestor species of A and B. True or false 2) B must share a more recent common ancestor with C1 than it does with C2. True or false
A, B, and C are three different island species and all share a common ancestor. Their
ranges are shown in the diagram below. Note that A and B are on a separate island
from species C. Species A and B are isolated from one another by a river. There are
two populations of species C (C1 and C2) that are isolated from one another by a
mountain range.
