2. The degree how is for a rare species of antelope being bred in captivity. Populations of Sable antelope in Africa are in decline due to loss of habitat, and increased spread of disease a frequent drought. Conservationists are trying to breed more antelope in the hope of releasing m i nto the wild, so they can increase the size of wild populations. Since people started pred sable antelope in captivity, they found a mutant phenotype arise: antelope without horns...

Why is it more challenging for animals in the wild to learn behaviors when compared to animals in captivity? a. Animals have their whole environment to move through; they can move away from a problem solving task. b. There are social factors that could affect an animal's ability to learn. c. There are more distractions in a natural habitat. d. All of the above

2. (22 points) A critically endangered salamander species (abbreviated Rs) is now confined to two isolated populations after replacement of much of its pine forest habitat by commercial pine plantations, and other factors like habitat fragmentation, fire suppression, introduced fish, and roads reduced the quality of remaining habitat. Patterns of genetic variation were compared to several more common closely related species (Rc and Ra) with similar life history and ecological traits. Review the provided data to describe and explain the...

Could someone check my answers, please? 1. Suppose that a species of fish has split into two populations in a lake: one on the eastern side and one on the western side. How could you determine whether the two populations constitute different species? A. Examine the populations for morphological, color, or other physical differences. B. Examine the populations for different genetic markers and allele frequencies. C. Attempt to breed members from the two populations in captivity. D. Introduce members from...

Let X be the total number of individuals of an endangered lizard species that are observed in a region on a given day. This observed number is assumed to be distributed according to a Poisson distribution with a mean of 3 lizards. The endangered lizards can belong to either of two sub-species: graham or opalinus. Let Y be the number of graham lizards observed during this study (note that the total observed number of any lizard is denoted by X,...

3. You are part of a restoration ecology program that is attempting to reintroduce endangered European bison, Bison bonasus, into to suitable habitats in the Eurasia. This species went through an extreme bottleneck after they were almost wiped out during WWI. Maintaining what limited genetic diversity remains is an important priority, especially because diseases spread from cattle represent a major threat. A remote site for reintroduction has been identified in Belarus. Captive-bred bison destined for this site have been genotyped...

How Does Evolutionary Change Occur? "I soon perceived that selection was the keystone of man's success in making useful races of animals and plants. But how selection could be applied to organisms living in a state of nature remained for some time a mystery to me." - Charles Darwin Introduction Fundamentally, evolution is the idea that the form and behaviors of a species are not fixed - that they can change over time. Before Darwin was even born, some scientists...

Many plants have brightly colored fruit and flowers. 32. An intimate relationship between two different species is called A. competition. B. a community. C. an ecosystem.D. symbiosis....

Which of the following statements regarding the Hardy-Weinberg Equation is TRUE? Answers: It can only be used when allele and genotype frequencies remain constant across generations in a population It can only be used when allele and genotype frequencies change across generations in a population It has no assumptions It mathematically shows how recessive alleles in a population decrease over time It reveals when allele frequencies change over time in a population Assuming Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium, what percentage of individuals in...
