Q

Lineage speices concept

A

One species gradually spilts into two . may be so gradual that actual speciation is hard to determine

Q

Another way for reproductive isolation

A

Centric fusion- when non homologous chromosomes fuse in a way that allows normal meietoc disjunction

what does this even mean

Q

Sympatric and give an example of this

A

may occur when disruptive selection is successful. Plants tolerating polyploidy, autopolyplodiy and allopolyplodiy. Define all of this

Q

Mechanical isolation

A

could be seen in plant classfications to reflect adaptions to land.

Q

reproductuve isolating mechanisms

give an example

A

pre and post zyogtic

orchid species adapt only one species of pollinate by mocking species

16
Q

Behavorial mechanisms

A

mating activites and spacing

17
Q

what if eggs and sperm can meet, How does it make the species seperate

A

By post zygote isolating mechiasms by low hybrud viability an infertility.

18
Q

Disadvantages to Biological Species Concept

A

Cannot evaluate fossils or asexual organisms. Difficult to apply to closely related populations who do not overlap geographically.
