The genus Saintpaulia is found in very small portion of east Africa and is a endemic genus and its majority of species being found growing at various elevations throughout the Eastern Arc Mountains of Kenya and Tanzania. The species of this genus produce distinct differences in the seed capsules . So i can argue that these 4 population could be different from one another. It is simply hard to guess the generalisation about the entire genus because there are some commonalities when it comes to the habitats these plants prefer. As we know that genus Saintpaulia grow at a variety of elevations but most of them prefer growing in the shaded forest .Because of their limited geographic distribution the species elevated from one another produce different kind of seed capsule and it produce a huge difference .
Saintpaulias (a type of flower) have been grouped from 18 different species to 7 species. Regardless,...
A part of the aminoacid sequence in Cytochrome-C protein from 6 different species is given in the table. Rank the organisms from 1 to 5 according to the similarity of the organism to human: based on the similarity between the cytochrome C aminoacid sequences, 1 being the closest to human. It is largely agreed that the greater the number of amino acid (or nucleotide) differences between a given pair of organisms, the further apart they are in evolution. On 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...
draw the Cario type for species X in the box below an exampleCario
Type of shown on page 1 of the chapter 10 class notes as in humans
larger chromosomes are given a lower number you should number your
commission papers and used to color shades as a figure what to
distinguish homologs with in pairs you don't need to label a little

please answer two question below
thankyou
e) 9; 9 3. In another plant species, the presence and type of hairs on the plant are controlled by epistatic interaction between two independently assorting genes. Gene C determines whether the plant has hairs (dominant) or not (recessive); Rene D determines whether the hairs are straight (dominant) or curly (recessive). In a cross between a straight-haired plant and a curly- haired plant, 1/4 of the offspring have no hairs. 3/8 have straight hairs,...
Nucleic acid molecules have been isolated from seven types of viruses. The base composition of these molecules is shown in the table below but the data are incomplete regarding the composition of the nucleic acid, which is given in terms of the percentage of total base composition Virus Type Base 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 T 12 - 20 18 26 23 T 12 18 0 26 0 18 C 38 - 30 26 - 24 28 G...
3. (22 points) Researchers sampled mitochondrial DNA from populations of two species of insect herbivores throughout their range, which includes the North American mainland and the peninsula of Baja California, a map of the sampled populations is shown in Figure 2. They calculated haplotype diversity and counted number of haplotypes for each species (Table 3), performed an AMOVA (Table 4), and determined pairwise Fst values between populations, illustrated by the matrices in Tables 5 and 6. Based on these data,...
(2 pts) You are studying lactose metabolism and have been culturing E. coliin different medias. One media has only glucose, one has only lactose, and a third has both glucose and lactose. (1 pt)You notice that some of the cultures grown in the presence of both glucose and lactose are metabolizing lactose. Which type(s) of mutation(s) could cause this to occur? (1 pt)You notice that some E. colicultures failed to grow in the presence of only lactose. You know that...
45. Which of the following is NOT an indicator of biodiversity? A the number of species in a habitat c. the number of individuals in a population B. the number of alleles in a population D. the number of dient habitat types in an area one of these 46. Which species turned Guam into a silent island, devoid of birdcalls? A. the brown treenake B. European rabbits c. the cane toad 47. What type of mimicry is shown in the...
Questions 4-7 relate to the paragraph below. Dr. Lee studies evolution in birds. He wants to test whether a finch-like bird on Island X in the Galapagos archipelago is a different species from the finches found on the other islands in the archipelago. Beak length is used to distinguish finches from other species of birds in the Galapagos archipelago. The mean beak length of the population of finches in the Galapagos is 2 cm; the variance of beak length in...

Under nearly all circumstances, postzygotic reproductive
isolation cannot evolve under the direct action of natural
selection. Instead, postzygotic isolation evolves as a by-product
of other genetic changes as proto-species diverge. In contrast,
natural selection can directly act to enhance prezygotic
reproductive isolation. Consider two species with overlapping
ranges. If hybrids between the species are less fit than pure
species individuals, females that mated with heterospecific males
would be at a selective disadvantage, because their resulting
offspring had low fitness....
