Genetic Evolution

Sexual reproduction produces distinct population variations. Heredity determines the traits and qualities to be passed down to the progeny. Over time, this variation within-species is also affected by the process of human evolution. The study of how genetic variation leads to evolutionary changes is known as genetic evolution. If a trait helps an organism to survive and reproduce, it is more likely to be passed down the generations. It is rare that such traits result in a completely distinct set of traits in descendants than the ancestral population; this can result in the emergence of a new species.

Question

Population divergence occurring as a result of females in a species consistently choosing males of a particular color is an example of

ecological speciation

Haldane's Rule

genetic drift

sexual selection

Definition Definition Process by which new species arise. This occurs when populations of a species become isolated and diverge, developing unique traits through natural selection, genetic drift, or other mechanisms. Over time, these differences accumulate until the populations can no longer interbreed and are considered separate species.

Figure 18.23 Which of the following statements is false? Punctuated equilibrium is most likely to occur in a small population that experiences a rapid change in its environment. Punctuated equilibrium is most likely to occur in a large population that lives in a stable climate. Gradual speciation is most likely to occur in species that live in a stable climate. Gradual speciation and punctuated equilibrium both result in the evolution of new species.
Which of these outcomes are examples of reproductive isolation? Select all that apply. Individuals of different species are physically compatible and can engage in sex Hybrid individuals cannot produce offspring Hybrid individuals or their offspring have similar fitness to the original species Reproduction occurs at different times Mating occurs but fertilization does not occur

Which of these options is NOT an example of a hypothesis that supports the occurrence of ecological speciation: ecologically divergent pairs of populations should be more reproductively isolated from one another than more ecologically similar pairs of populations traits that lead to divergent adaptations between populations should lead to reproductive isolation between those populations as well levels of gene flow between ecologically divergent populations should decrease as populations become more ecologically divergent ecologically divergent populations should differ in use of signals that relate to mate selection
