- 8) What data would suggest that a species evolutionary history includes sexual selection as a mechanism that helped shape the species? A) If males and females are significantly different from each other (sexual dimporphism) B) If some males reproduce with multiple females while other males do not reproduce C) If males engage in "risky" behavior D) If males and females form different social groups (i.e. herds are formed from either males or females but not both)arrow_forwardWhy are human and chimpanzee DNA 96 percent similar?

- Sketch the generated phylogenetic tree below and color the branches of the generated phylogenetic tree according the the island: 1) Anolis sheplani 2) Anolis cybotes 3) Anolis olssoni 4) Anolis celestinus 5) Anolis occultus 6) Anolis cristatellus 7) Anolis puchellus 8) Anolis evermanni Hispaniola Species - Blue Puerto Rico Species - Red 1) What can you conclude about the relatedness of anole lizards living on these two islands?arrow_forward27) In the fruit fly speciation experiment, individuals from separate populations that were raised using the same food source were more likely to attempt mating with each other than individuals raised on different food sources. Why? A) Because they had adapted to their environment in the same way B) Because this is an example of allopatric speciation C) Because the separate populations were able to carry out some gene flow D)Because the jars were accidently placed next to each other so the males and females were able to recognize each 28) What is needed for natural selection to occur? A) Variation sexual reproduction, competition B) Variation, heritability competition C)Variation, competition, time D) Heritability, competition, sexual reproductionarrow_forwardMatch the term that best describes the different groups of primates. a)Gibbons and Siamangs b)Gorillas c)Bonobos d)Lemurs and Lorises e)Marmosets CHOOSE Small bodied apes that are mostly brachiators type of new world monkey with the ancestral trait of retained claws largest primates that are primarily vegetarian morphologically similar to chimpanzees; copulate throught female estrus cycle the primates with the most ancestral/ primitive traitsarrow_forward
- What traits support classifying H. habilis and H. rudolfensis as separate species?arrow_forwardWhat is the difference between “ancestral traits” and “derived traits”?What is the biological definition of a “species”?arrow_forwardCrickets have colonized each island in the Hawaiian Archipelago. Geological data indicates that Kauai is the oldest island in the chain and Hawaii is the youngest. Researchers hypothesized that crickets sequentially colonized islands as they rose out of the ocean and created a cladogram based on molecular relationships to test this idea. 3) Which islands unambiguously show multiple independent colonization events? 4) How many colonization events were there on each of the islands showing multiple events?arrow_forward
