Bio — Evolution Flashcards
bats & dolphins have similar traits of hunting bec of envi pressure, but different lineages
convergent evolution
demes
pre-speciation form
demes live in the same enviro, but isolaation makes them a new specie
speciation
Evolution of new species that in integrate freely with each other but not with the members of other species
lizards have a recent common ancestor, but in different areas, they are different
Parallel evolution
Darwin’s finches have a recent prominent ancestor but have diff size beaks bec of their locations
Divergent evolution
A population of toads in a lake
All members of a particular species inhabiting in a given location
gene pool
of red eyes in the lake
Sum of total alleles of a particular trait in the population
The gene frequency of red eyes in the lake is 60%
How frequent is the allele in the specie from the population which has this gene
Evolution
Changes in the genetic makeup of a population
