- If two organisms are able to mate and produce fertile offspring, then they are of the same species.
- Horses and donkeys are two different species because if they mate, they produce a mule which is sterile (not fertile). This shows horses and donkeys are of different species.

∙ 12y agoWe usually judge this by their similarities or their characteristics because organisms produce individuals that look very much like them.
--My bio prof says it's as simple as whether they can breed with one another or not.

∙ 9y agoIf two organisms are capable of producing offspring in nature, the belong to the same species. However, some organisms are capable of crossbreeding but are not the same species.

What 2 factors determine the evolution of a species?
Natural selection and traits
When do enzyme competition occurs?
For competition to occur, the environment somehow must be limiting (i.e., there must be something to compete for)
Which change is most likely to lead to competition among organisms?
Organisms that fill the same niche in a given ecosystem are most likely to be competitors, since they would need the same resources (example: food). If the ecosystem wasn't rich enough in resources to support both (or more than 2) species that fill the same niche they'd have to compete with each other to survive.
Name two factors that will determine whether a non-native species becomes an invasive species?
1.Very high and still Increasing population and 2. They are dominating or killing off other species in the area
How do we know if two animals are in the same species?
If the two organisms are able to interbreed with each other then we know that they are from the same species because the individuals in a species are able to interbreed and produce fertile offsprings.
HOW do you know 2 organisms are not part of the same species?
Because malaria
What happens when to two organisms attempt to occupy the same niche?
Massive competition occurs when 2 organisms have the sane niche. The organisms are 2 species.
What happens when two organisms attempt to occupy the same niche-?
Massive competition occurs when 2 organisms have the sane niche. The organisms are 2 species.
How are 2 organisms the same species?
If two organisms are able to mate and produce fertile offspring, then they are of the same species.Horses and donkeys are two different species because if they mate, they produce a mule which is sterile (not fertile). This shows horses and donkeys are of different species.
Fossils of a species of bird are found in layer 3 Which layer is most likely to have organisms that lived at the same time as the bird species?
Layer 2
What two levels of classification are used to name organisms?
The genus and species are the final 2 classification that determine a scientific name for an organism
What happens when two organisms attempt to occupy the niche?
Massive competition occurs when 2 organisms have the sane niche. The organisms are 2 species.
How do you do a karyotype?
-Determine the gender of the individual. -To tell if 2 cells belong to the same species. -To detect the genetic abnormalities in Prenatal diagnosis.
What generalization can you make about identifying how closely organisms are related?
if 2 or more organisms have more than one of the following the same, they are closley related: kingdom, phylum, class,order,family,genus,and species
What is the one way in which scientist get information about the evolutionary history of species?
Scientists study the genetic material of organisms to determine their evolutionary history. By comparing DNA sequences between different species, researchers can identify similarities and differences that help reconstruct the relationships between species and their common ancestors.
What 2 factors determine the evolution of a species?
Natural selection and traits
How many species of organisms are found in The Amazonian Forest?
2 Porch monkeys and chimpanzees
