What is it called if a plant from area A develops large, flat leaves at the same time a plant from are B does, even though they are not near each other geographically?
A. Allopatric Evolution
B. Convergent Evolution
C. Sympatric Evolution
D. Divergent Evolution
Homework Answers
I think this plant species evolution is - convergent evolution.
Because convergent evolution means different species located in different area have evolved same character with same function.
Here , two plants are located in different area but their evolution is same.
Allopatric evolution means species are geographically separate to become different species with completely different characters and function.
Sympatric evolution means evolution of different species in same geographical area.
Divergent evolution means species are developed from same ancestor but after some time they become different species.

QUESTION 14 Below is a cartoon depicting various geological events, starting with one large island (panel 1) and ending with four smaller islands sequentially splitting off from each other (panels 2 to 5). Initially, there was only Species A inhabiting on the big island. However, as time went on, more species evolved on these smaller islands, such that at the current time (panel 5), there are five species. Their phylogenetic relationships are shown on the last panel. Please answer questions...

2. The lubber grasshopper is a very large grasshopper, and is black with red and yellow stripes. Assume that red stripes are expressed from the homozygous RR genotype, yellow stripes from the homozygous rr genotype, and both from the heterozygous genotype. A. If two heterozygous grasshoppers were crossed, what would be the genotypic ratio of the F1 generation (RR:Rr:rr)? Fill in the Punnett square. B. What genotypes would be produced by crossing a grasshopper with both color stripes and one...

The attached organism, elkhorn coral, looks like a plant, but is actually a large colony of tiny, interconnected animal coral animals. Other than during the larval stage, coral cannot move from place to place. Like most corals, it lives only in shallow water and lacks most of the sense organs common in other animals. What is the best explanation for how and why coral animals evolved a form that is more like a plant than an animal? A. People don't...

11. Girdling is the removal of the bark from the entire eircumference of a branch or trunk of a woody plant. The bark of a Bark woody plant is composed of the cork, cork cambium and phloem So, girdling totally disrupts the phloem but leaves the xylem intact. Imagine a peach tree with several main branches and lots of small, -Wood green and immature fruits on each one of these branches. a) If you girdle one main branch at a...
