1 answer:

4 0

The inability of organisms to evolve anything that could be an advantage reflects "the limit of historical constraints".

<h3>What is the limit of historical constraints of evolution?</h3>

Although evolution is a powerful process that leads to

rapid changes in the characteristics of organisms, limits

to evolution arise from a lack of genetic variation, a

loss of well-adapted genotypes in populations due to

gene flow, trait interactions leading to trade-offs, and/

or the difficulty of evolving simultaneous changes in a

number of traits. This is the limit of historical constraints of evolution.

<h3>What are the factors that can cause an organism to evolve?</h3>

Four main factors lead to evolution:

(1) the potential for a species to diversify;

(2) heritable genetic variation among individuals within a species as a result of mutation and sexual reproduction;

(3) competition for scarce resources; and

(4) the spread of organisms that are better able to endure and procreate in the environment.

erastovalidia [21]

I'd say that the mechanism which might keep Rana aurora and Rana boylii from mating is B. temporal isolation, since their breeding seasons do not occur at the same time.
It is not anatomical isolation, since they are both frogs. It is not geographic isolation, since they meet in California. It is not behavioral isolation since they both have breeding seasons.
