what is speciation - answer-the creation of a new speoces



what is the key formation of most new animal species - answer-isolation



what are the two main ways populations get isolated - answer-dispersal and barriers



what is dispersal - answer-the movement of individuals from their birthplace to a new, distant
location where they settle and breed



what are barriers - answer-develops in the middle of a range and separates species



what is the parent population range - answer-new species evolving while living within the same
geographic area as their ancestor



does more change happen in a smaller or bigger population - answer-smaller



what are two examples of barriers - answer-rivers or mountains



what are two examples of artificial barriers - answer-roads and pathways



1

,what is an environmental change that is a barrier - answer-new competitor



what is mumeration - answer-flock of birds swarming



what do barriers have to do with gene flow - answer-the genetics of species are being isolated
meaning the populations will no longer exchange gens leading to no gene flow



what does no genetic introgression mean - answer-there is no movement of genes from
populations into other populations



what is gene flow - answer-the exchange of genes between two populations



what two things will small differences in two environments result in - answer-natural selections
and shifts in allelic frequencies within each population



over time, populations will diverge genetically and may become so different that reproduction
could increase or decrease? - answer-decrease



what could happen if the barrier disappears - answer-gene flow may occur between populations



what will favor the further isolation of populations to preserve the environmental adaption
each population has - answer-natural selection



what does sympatric mean - answer-living in the same place




2

, If two groups of the same species are living in different places and never meet, do they evolve
ways to avoid mating with each other - answer-no



when do mechanisms develop through natural selection - answer-only after the barrier has
fallen



what is allopatric speciation - answer-when a new species forms because a group gets
geographically separated from the rest.



what is sympatric speciation - answer-when a new species forms without being physically
separated



they live in the same area the whole time.



what two things are the most common sympatric organisms - answer-lower verts and plants



what are the four reproductive isolating mechanisms premating - answer-1. ecological

2. temporal

3. ethological isolation

4. mechanical



what are the six reproductive isolating mechanisms postmating - answer-1. gametic mortality

2. zygotic mortality

3. embryonic mortality

4. hybrid inviability

5. hybrid sterility
