Question 6: Why might islands be good ecosystems to study the outcomes of the founder effect?

Biology

Svet_ta [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: This can be useful site to study the diversity of organisms.

Explanation:

The founder effect is the known phenomena proposed by Ernst Meyer. It occurs when a small number of organisms leave the larger population. The genetic variation will be lost when a new population is established by the small population. Due to lack of genetic variation the new population becomes phenotypically and genotypically different from the parent population. This process lead to speciation.

The islands are the regions where few organisms can be found, those have migrated from the native land. Thus the study of diversity of these organisms will become simple.

Experimental research is primarily a hypothesis-testing method. <br> a. True <br> b. False
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]
True.

We test hypotheses to first determine whether they are valid....In other words, whether they are accurate. Other people then test the same hypotheses to see if the results are reliable.

Valid = empirically supported; accurate.

Reliable = empirically supported over and over, even hundreds or thousands of times or more, by different people and through various methods.

Hypothesis = a suggested explanation that fits observable phenomena and possible correlations, based on data, induction, or deduction.
***Hypotheses MUST be falsifiable***

Falsifiable = capable of being shown to be false. If you can't falsify a hypothesis, it is NOT a valid hypothesis.

Theory = a thoroughly tested, non-falsified, and well-substantiated explanation that unifies proven (aka valid) and verified (aka reliable) factors. It has predictive power.


When we get the same results over time, by various experiments done by different people, we start to gain a lot of data and confidence in our results. Once the data are large enough and replicated enough, AND once the known experimental results have predictive power, we call it a theory...such as the theory of gravity or the theory of evolution by natural selection. If there's a mathematical relationship that is consistently true given the data, then we call it a law.

If the data are falsified, then we reject the hypothesis (show it is not true) and must move on to alternate hypotheses.

Hope this helps!
