In order to be classified in the same species a group of organisms must be able to do what?
Organisms that belong to the same species can reproduce a fertile offspring.
What must be rue for two organisms to be considered the same species?
They must be able to reproduce, and their offspring must be fertile as well. So technically, because ligers are in fact fertile, tigers and lions are one species, regardless of the fact we classify them as two.
How did Darwin explain the fact that only a small number of offspring of any species survive to reproduce?
Offspring must compete for available resources in order to survive
What two things must an organism be able to do to be considered a species?
-Produce fertile offspring -Successfully interbreed
What characteristic of the species level of organization distinguishes two similar organisms such as ducks and geese as different species?
Organisms are grouped into species according to their outer similarities so ducks and geese must vary enough to be categorized differently.

What must be true for to organisms to be considered the same species?
they can produce fertile offspring
What must be true for organisms to be considered the same species?
they can produce fertile offspring
Organisms must be of the same species in order to breed and produce offspring?
No it is not true.....The offspring of a horse and a donkey is a mule
In order to be classified in the same species a group of organisms must be able to?
interbreed and produce fertile offspring.

The evolution of reproductive isolation between two or more groups of organisms is?
The origin of new species. To be considered a member of a singe species, organisms must be capable of reproducing and producing viable offspring. Once they have evolved to become reproductively isolated, they can no longer fulfill these requirements and are considered separate species.
What types of cells must be involved for a mutation to be passed on to the organisms offspring?
genes
Can two species be members of same genus not of same family?
The classification of organisms from general to specific goes: Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species. Therefor, two species the same Genus MUST be members of the same Family. However, a Family may consist of several different Genus, so species in the same Family are not necessarily members of the same Genus.
At leaste some members of each species must carry out this life characteristic if the species is to survive?
Depends on species.
What is Darwin's theory of overpopulation?
The phenomenon of over-population, according to Darwin's theory, starts the whole process of evolutionary transformation of organisms. Overproduction is the main laws of natural selection ,it is the ability of a species to produce far more offspring than can survive. The number of organisms of each species are born into the world, more than the number of them, which can find their own food to survive and leave offspring, yet the number of each species in natural conditions is fairly constant. Therefore, it must be assumed that most of the offspring in each generation dies. If all the descendants of a species to survive and reproduce, then pretty soon they would be supplanted all other forms in the world.
