What is speciation?​

Biology
1 answer:
lorasvet [3.4K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

speciation is when one species splits off into multiple species.

In-depth answer:

Speciation can happen in 4 different ways, the first being Allopatric Speciation, where 2 groups of the same species are physically separated for extended periods of time, and when they're re-introduced, they don't breed.

Sympatric Speciation is when 2 groups of the same species aren't seperated, but form different behaviors that isolate them reproductively (the groups wont inter-breed)

Parapatric Speciation is when 2 groups of the same species are suddenly placed into a new environmental niche, and adapt in different ways to fill that niche.

Quantum Speciation is much less recognized, but it's when a new species rapidly evolves and 'buds off' from the original group

seraphim [82]

Answer:

Mantle plumes that form hotspots are thought to be relatively stationary whereas the overlying tectonic plates typically are not. Thus, as a plate moves over the location of a plume eruption, it carries successively older volcanoes with it.

Empirical evidence is obtained using our human senses, which statement
Inessa05 [86]

The statement “This type of evidence can be checked by others” best explains the importance of empirical evidence in science.

Explanation:

There are all kinds of evidence used in science, but empirical evidence is obtained as a result of <u>repeated experiments and observations</u>. This evidence is used to either support or argue against a scientific theory. Empirical evidence is the preferred evidence since this kind of evidence can be peer reviewed, i.e. reviewed by other scientists and/or researchers. In other words, the experiment can be redone, and the <u>evidence can be tested</u>.

If a man and a woman, each with sickle-cell trait, were planning to marry, what information could you provide them regarding the
kiruha [24]

Answer:

I'll inform them that the possibility of all their future children/offspring being phenotypically sickle-celled is very high.

Explanation:

Sickle cell is an inherited disease condition in which the red blood cells of the blood loses its shape and hence, dies or gets broken down. It has to do with the blood genotype of an individual. There are three major types of blood genotypes in humans namely: AA, AS, and SS. SS is the recessive genotype that codes for the sickle cell trait.

Hence, a human with the sickle cell trait has a genotype- SS. Therefore, according to this question, a man and a woman, each with sickle-cell trait (SS), were planning to marry, This will mean that both the man and the woman will always produce a gamete with S allele, which will combine to form an SS offspring. In other words, all of the offsprings of this man and woman will be sickle-celled.
