Speciation is not a precise division: overlap between closely related species can occur in areas called hybrid zones. Organisms
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The emergence of new species from surviving ancestral species and both species continue to interact during a transition period is known as Sympatric Speciation.

Explanation:

Hybrid Zone is the  area where two species continue to interact. Hybrid offspring are produced by two different species.

1) hybrid offspring

2) zones

3) reinforces

4) zones

5) Slow down

6) gradual speciation model

7) punctuated equilibrium

Barred feather pattern is a Z-linked dominant trait in chickens. What offspring would you expect from (a) the cross of a barred
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Let the "barred" allele be caller B and the "non-white" allele b. Since chickens use chromosomes Z  and W to determine sex, hens would have chromosomes ZW, and roosters would have chromosomes ZZ. A Z-linked gene is represented as a superscript on the Z chromosome, Z^{B} for the dominant allele and Z^{b} for the ressesive allele.

A barred hen would have a copy of B on its Z chromosome, a non-barred rooster would have both copies of b on both Z chromosomes. Using Punnet squares to represent the crosses we get the following cases:

\begin{center}\begin{tabular}{ |c|c|c|c| }\ & Z^{B} & W \\ \ Z^{b} & Z^{B}Z^{b} & Z^{b}W \\ \ Z^{b} & Z^{B}Z^{b} & Z^{b}W \\ \end{tabular}\end{center}

That is a ratio of two barred heterozygote roosters to two non-barred hens. Crossing them we get:

\begin{center}\begin{tabular}{ |c|c|c|c| }\ & Z^{b} & W \\ \ Z^{B} & Z^{B}Z^{b} & Z^{B}W \\ \ Z^{b} & Z^{b}Z^{b} & Z^{b}W \\ \end{tabular}\end{center}

That is a ratio of one barred heterozygote rooster to one barred hen to one non-barred rooster to one non barred hen.

An earthquake creates a new canyon in a mountain area. this canyon separates two populations of mountain turtles to the east and
kondor19780726 [428]
The formation of the canyon provides a physical barrier that me lead to speciation between the two populations if interbreeding is prevented. The population to the west of the canyon will probably adapt to feeding on the berries on land, and might therefore evolve traits for a terrestrial, vegetarian existence. The turtles to the east of the canyon will evolve to take advantage of the river environment, and aquatic characteristics will be further emphasised.
