The species diversity of an evolutionary lineage will increase when more new member species originate than are lost to extinctio
n. In this hypothetical example, by 2 million years ago, both lineage A and lineage B have given rise to four species, and no species have become extinct (denoted by a dagger symbol). By time 0, however, lineage A contains only one species while lineage B contains eight species. Part A Consider the period from 2 million years ago to time 0. For lineage A, how many speciation and extinction events occurred from 2 million years ago to time?
As we can see from the diagram, there were only 2 ,aim speciation events for lineage A. The extinction events were 5 for the A lineage. Hence, as the extinction event was more rapid than the speciation event so lineage A contains only one species.
On the other hand, the diagram shows that for lineage B there were 5 speciation events and just 1 extinction event. Hence, the number of species in lineage B were more at the time zero as just one extinction had occurred.
According to Kinsey's sexual behavior study, approximately 21 percent of men and 6 percent of women had sexual intercourse by the age of 16. (Please mark me brainliest! thank you in advance!!)
