Question 1

Question
True or False: separation of a species or population so that they no longer interbreed and evolve into two separate species is called "speciation"
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 2

Question
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

Question 4

Question
What does the diagram represent?
Answer
  • Reproductive isolation
  • Behavioral isolation
  • Temporal isolation
  • Geographic isolation

Question 5

Question
What kind of isolation is being shown?
Answer
  • Behavioral
  • Geographic
  • Temporal

Question 6

Question
What geographic barrier separates the two populations of squirrels?
Answer
  • Rio Grande
  • Grand Canyon
  • Gila River
  • Lake Mead
  • Colorado River
  • Lake Powell

Question 7

Question
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?
Answer
  • Founder effect
  • Bottleneck effect
  • Genetic Drift

Question 9

Question
What image represents geographic isolation?

Question 10

Question
Which image represents changes in gene pools?

Question 11

Question
