Why are there species instead of a continuum of various animals?

1 answer:

3 0

Because evolution itself is a very slow process. Having said that, the chance of having a continuum of various animals would mean that evolution would have progressed very fast. Because evolution is slow, different species establish themselves for different ecological niches and environments, this enables them to become better through time at a certain environment which then leads to eventual diversification in the number of species.

plant species A has two alleles for leaf color. if plant species B has four alleles for leaf color, how will the two species dif

Yanka [14]

Plant A would have one allele from each parent, so the leaf color will be the dominant one.

Plant B would have a more complex percentage for traits. And it'll probably "cancel-out" some alleles only showing the info given in one of them.
