Textbook Question
Chapter 22.1, Problem 2CC
WHAT IF? Suppose you are studying two bird species that live in a forest and are not known to interbreed. One species feeds and mates in the treetops and the other on the ground. But in captivity, the birds can interbreed and produce viable, fertile offspring. What type of reproductive barrier most likely keeps these species separate in nature? Explain

- Q2.16. When heavily armored marine sticklebacks have invaded freshwater lakes where there are no predatory fish, their populations have evolved lighter body armor. Given what you've learned about evolution, which of the following explanations for why this happens is most plausible? O Young sticklebacks only grow heavy armor when they see predatory fish in their environment. O When sticklebacks don't use their armor, it shrinks. Then they pass lighter armor to their offspring. Concentrated pollutants in freshwater lakes disrupt the sticklebacks' ability to grow armor. O Heavily armored fish grow more slowly and breed later, making armor disadvantageous in these lakes.arrow_forwardGrasshopper's environment pressures: What obstacles in regard to finding food, habitat, climate, mating?

- EVOLUTION ASSESSMENT - FINCHES Galápagos Ground Finches Between 1973 and 1978, the population of ground finches (a type of small bird) on the Galápagos Islands decreased. Scientists made observations of the population throughout that time period. They recorded and graphed differences in the distribution of traits over time. The two sets of graphs below come from the data they collected.

- Answer Plz.arrow_forwardI need help identifying which assumption of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is most affected, then indicating whether what is being described will act to establish or violate equilibrium, and lastly, whether the statement will increase or decrease that population’s genetic variation. Corals synchronize spawning to occur on a single night during a particular tidal event, such as a spring tide. On that night individuals release sperm and eggs into the water, which then form zygotes. Larvae are carried off by currents and settle elsewhere. What assumption is this breeding style affecting and what will it do to VG of that coral species?arrow_forwardWhat is variation? Give its importance. What are the possible causes of variations? Give specific examples. How would you know or identify if the cause of variation is genetic, environmental, or both? Classify these variations as to "species characteristics" or "individual characteristics".
