Speciation Flashcards
Define the term species
by similarities of their features and their reproductive isolation
What is the biological species concept
Reproductive isolation, biological and geographical . for individuals to be different species some isolation
Lineage speices concept
One species gradually spilts into two . may be so gradual that actual speciation is hard to determine
Reproductive isolation
Incompatibilites between genes . Less succesful or lact fertizing
Another way for reproductive isolation
Centric fusion- when non homologous chromosomes fuse in a way that allows normal meietoc disjunction
what does this even mean
species tend to show reproductive isolation by
Genetically distant pairs of species
allopatric
Different/alternative homeland
What event can cause speciation
we saw this in 5 eveolutional things
founder effect
Sympatric and give an example of this
may occur when disruptive selection is successful. Plants tolerating polyploidy, autopolyplodiy and allopolyplodiy. Define all of this
Plants can tolerate
Polypolidy
Mechanical isolation
could be seen in plant classfications to reflect adaptions to land.
angioseperms
Adaptions showing decrease in dependence on water and increased reproductive success
Pre-zyotic
before the formation of zygotes
reproductuve isolating mechanisms
give an example
pre and post zyogtic
orchid species adapt only one species of pollinate by mocking species
semi sychronus is allopatric or sympatric. Why
Allopatric
