Types of Speciation?
sympatric , allopatric and parapatric speciation
Compare and contrast allopatric and sympatric speication?
Allopatric and sympatric speciation are both methods by which new species arise. However, allopatric speciation is when species interbreed. Sympatric speciation is when several new species arise from a common ancestor.
How is sympatric speciation similar allopatric speciation?
They both are mechanisms by which new species arise
Which of the following can result in instant speciation?
Allopatric speciation and sympatric speciation are two factors. Allopatric speciation occurs when physical barriers are formed, separating the specie. This will cause the specie to evolve at different rates causing a new specie to form. Sympatric speciation is less likely to occur when comparing it to allopatric. In sympatric speciation is no longer physical but generic. For example a mutation in the genetic order of the specie (which does not happen as often as physical barriers), and a different mating preference/season.
Are Darwin's finches allopatric or sympatric?
no
Which form of speciation is most rapid A. sympatric speciation via character displacement B. allopatric speciation on the island archipelagos C. sympatric speciation via autopolyploidy D. allopa?
B. Allopactric speciation on island archipelagos. As the organisms move from island to island rapid speciation is observed because of variations in resource acquisition more than just variation in environment. Amplified radiation is observed. Example is finches on the Galapagos Islands. Hawaii also gives this example.
What type of selection can create 2 new species from one population?
There are several types of selections that can do this. It includes allopatric speciation where the population is separated by physical barrios, sympatric speciation where variations occur in the population, and allopolyploid when two species merge.
How is sympatric similar to allopatric speciation?
They both are mechanisms by which new species arise grad point
The emergence of new species when a population becomes geographically isolated is termed what?
This concept is called allopactric speciation.
Speciation caused by change in the course of a river is an example pf divergent speciation?
Allopatric speciation.
Allopatric speciation requires?
geographic isolation.
Which type of speciation occurred among galapagos islands finches?
allopatric speciation
