Which event is the most likely cause for the four periods when punctuated equilibrium seems to occur?
Extinction events, such as the Permian extinction and the KT extinction event. You have adaptive radiation driving evolutionary change after such events. Google " the rise of the mammals. "
Which pattern of evolution do horseshoe crabs likely follows gradualism or punctuated equilibrium?
Probably gradualism as they have not seemed to change much and have not split to give rise to new species. Stabilizing selection keep this organism evolving slowly.
Why are fossils of intermediate life forms likely to be rare if the pattern of punctuated equilibrium explains how evolution occurs?
Intermediate species forms, yes. A the taxa level, no. Still, not all taxa evidence is supportive of punctuation and stasis. Punctuated equilibrium is only one explanation of how evolution occurs in some species, not all species. The little shellies evidence gradualist processes very well.
What is an equilibrium in meteorology?
I am a meteorologist. An equilibrium, as it pertains to meteorology, most likely applies to a pressure equilibrium - or equalization of pressure. "Equilibrium" means balance, or balanced.
Which population is most likely to be in Hardy-equilibrium?
A large population residing on an isolated island is more likely to reach Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.
What process has most likely occurred when new traits appear in a species?
it is either sexual reproduction, dynamic equilibrium, cellular respiration, or internal regulation. i have a feeling it is sexual reproduction or dynamic equilibrium.
How can I use equilibrium in a sentence?
the U.S government is most effecrive when its executive, legislative, and judicial branches are all working in equilibrium. Alcohol impairs your equilibrium, and you are more likely to fall when intoxicated.
Solution equilibrium most likely exists in which type of solution?
Equilibrium is only found in a saturated solution, where the dissolved species and the undissolved species are in equilibrium with each other. In a dilute solution there is nothing that is undissolved, and so there is no equilibrium, and by definition a supersaturated solution is out of equilibrium and essentially has too much stuff dissolved in it (it will eventually return to equilibrium and some of the dissolved material will precipitate out).
How do you spell occerd?
The likely word is "occurred" (happened).
Which factor would most likely disrupt genetic equilibrium in a large population?

What factor would most likely disrupt genetic equilibrium in a large population?
Nonrandom mating.
