A) chance changes in the gene pool of a small population
B) the entry of alleles into a population due to immigration
C) changes in the gene pool of a population that are due to differential reproductive success

All life is organized into 3 domains• 2 Domains of
prokaryotes, 1 of all eukaryotes
• Bacteria & Archaea- prokaryotic
• Eukaryota- Includes all 4 eukaryotic kingdoms: protista, animalia, plantae, fungi
• All domains have a common ancestor

Taxonomy is the science of classification
• Categories move from the general to the specific
• Species are named according to the genus and species to which they belong (Binomial nomenclature)
• e. g. Homo sapiens

Millions of species have been named
• However, the definition of species remains vague and flexible
• Yet there are unquestionably a wide variety of living things on earth

Change in allele frequencies alone cannot generate diversity
![Page 8: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Evolution happens at the level of species
![Page 9: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The Biological Species Concept is based on reproductive isolation
![Page 10: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The Biological Species Concept
• “Two organisms that are able to reproduce naturally to produce fertile offspring. Organisms that can reproduce but almost always make infertile hybrids, such as a mule or hinny, are not considered to be the same species.”
![Page 11: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Other Species concepts
• Ecological Species concept- species are define by the ecological niche which they fill
• Morphological Species concept- Species are defined and categorized by the physical structures they share

Reproductive Barriers cause reproductive isolation
![Page 13: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Reproductive Barriers cause reproductive isolation
![Page 14: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Behavioral Isolation can cause speciation
• Courtship rituals are a prime example of behavioral isolation
• Temporal behavior can also isolate a species
![Page 15: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Mechanical Barriers can lead to Speciation
![Page 16: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Postzygotic barriers
![Page 17: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
When populations are isolated from each other, genetic drift and selection ensue,
causing allopatric speciation
![Page 18: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
In plants, polyploidy is a cause of sympatric speciation
![Page 19: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Ecological pressures and opportunities fuel adaptive radiation
• Adaptive radiation- one species becomes many, rapidly to fill vacant ecological niches
![Page 20: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Natural selection is a driver of speciation
Directional and disruptive pressures cause species to change
![Page 21: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Artificial selection shows the pliancy of species morphology
![Page 22: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Can natural selection create the same diversity?
![Page 23: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Hallmarks of Adaptive Radiation
• Common ancestry of radiants
• Rapid speciation• Phenotypes show
adaptation suited to new niche
• Where can we find evidence of adaptive radiation?
![Page 24: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Adaptive Radiation is easily seen in island ecosystems
![Page 25: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
New islands contain vacant ecological niches
• Species which arrive are often in reproductive isolation
• Novel competition conditions
• Many available resources
• Great opportunity
![Page 26: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
The Hawaiian islands are geographically isolated from
continents• The most isolated
landmass in the world• Colonization events are
rare• When they do occur,
they are momentous
![Page 27: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Hawaiian islands are geographically isolated from each other
• Distance from Maui Big Island: ~40 miles
• Islands are isolated from each other
• But less isolated than all are from continents
• Islands appeared in sequence (temporal isolation)
![Page 28: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Hawaiian islands exhibit a wide diversity of habitats
• Sea level 13,000 ft.• Rainforest desert• Fertile soil barren
rock• Warm snowy
Tremendous ecological opportunity

800 Species of Drosophila are endemic to Hawaii
• Evidence points to a single colonization event, 5 million years ago
![Page 30: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
The “Silversword Alliance” shows adaptive radiation
• 28 species of Hawaiian plants
• Traced to a single Californian tarweed
![Page 31: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Extinction events create vacant niches
• Cretaceous-Tertiary (K-T) extinction allowed radiation of mammal species
• K-T one of the five important global extinction events
![Page 32: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Adaptive radiation in the lab
• In variable environments, varying strains of P. fluorescens are generated
• Strains are genetically distinct
• When environments are homogeneous, no such variants are generated
![Page 33: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Speciation can occur by gradualism or by puncuated equlibrium
![Page 34: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Exaptation is the shift in functionality of a structure
![Page 35: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Exaptation is the shift in functionality of a structure
![Page 36: Mechanisms of Species Diversity. Which of the following provides evidence that vertebrates evolved from a common ancestor? A) homologous structures B)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e555503460f94b4cf5a/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Evolution is not a directed process
• Evolution perfects, but never creates perfection
• Living things adapt to ever-changing environments
