Question 2

True or False: "Speciation" is when one species divides or gives rise to a new species
Answer
True
False
Question 3
Question
Define species:
Answer
formation of a new species
form of reproductive isolation in which two populations are separated by geographic barriers such as rivers, mountains, or bodies of water, leading to the formation of two separate subspecies
form of reproductive isolation in which two populations develop differences in courtship rituals or other behaviors that prevent them from breeding
a group of similar organisms that can breed and produce fertile offspring
According to the hypothesis: "How might the founder effect and natural selection have produced reproductive isolation that could have led to speciation among Galápagos finches?", speciation in Galápagos finches occurred by:
Answer
Founding of a new population
Geographic isolation
Changes in the new population's gene pool
Behavioral isolation
Ecological competition
Temporal isolation
Question 8
Question
Because of what effect could the allele frequencies of this founding finch population differ from the frequencies of the original South American population?
