Brian O Meara EEB464 Fall 2015 httpwwwyoutubecomwatchvlopTMhAbXoI Initiation of speciation Maintenance of current species Prezygotic Postzygotic Zygote image Laboratoire de Biologie de la Reproduction Lausanne image downloaded from . Speciation. – formation of a new species . Species. – group of organisms that interbreed and produce fertile offspring. Subspecies. – groups that are on the way to being separate species; have started being genetically different. Evolution. Results of evolution. New species (speciation). Causes of evolution. Barriers between same species (gene pools). Geographical isolation -> leads to . allopatric. speciation. Temporal isolation -> leads to sympatric speciation. EVOLUTION #1 (Group 3). Strawberry Frogs Forever. Participants: Lin Xiang. Ingo . Schlupp. Tiffany Roberts. Anne . Grippo. Jerry Farris. Facilitators: Brooke . Evolution. Speciation Basics. Individuals of different species cannot . interbreed. under natural conditions . Described as being . reproductively isolated . from one another. Populations of different species do . The rise and fall of biodiversity. Four major mass extinctions of marine organisms:. End of Silurian Devonian, Permian, and Cretaceous). Rise in diversity during Cambrian, Silurian, Cretaceous, and Paleogene. Concept 22.2: Speciation can take place with or without geographic separation. Speciation can occur in two ways. Allopatric speciation. Sympatric speciation. Allopatric (. “. Other Country. ”. ) Speciation. Meara. EEB464 Fall . 2017. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lopTMhAbXoI. Learning objectives. Understand factors that can lead to speciation. Consider the geography of speciation. Describe approaches to . Species. – group of organisms that interbreed and produce fertile offspring. Subspecies. – groups that are on the way to being separate species; have started being genetically different. Individuals in the same species share a common gene pool. Section 1 Vocabulary Pretest. Population Genetics. Microevolution. Gene Pool. Allele Frequency. Phenotype Frequency. Total genetic information in a population. Portion of gene copies of a given allele. Sympatric Speciation. Sympatric Speciation occurs . without. geographic isolation, thus it occurs at a local level. . There is something within the environment that keeps a single species separated into two or more distinct groups.. What defines a species?. Species: a group of organisms that can . interbreed. and produce . fertile. offspring. “Biological Species Concept” . Human species?. Homo sapiens – “wise man” (large brains!). Populations must become isolated. Reproductive isolation is key!. Once isolated, populations will evolve independently (different factors affecting each). Two types of speciation. allopatric. geographic separation. (Unit 10, species concept. Sympatric speciation . Sympatric speciation, (from the Greek ‘same place’) involves the splitting of an ancestral species into two or more reproductively isolated groups without geographical isolation of those groups.. Science. Lesson 8: challenge answer. Investigate and make note of other species that have evolved due to parapatric speciation. . Typically seen in species of fish.. Learning intention. To know what sympatric speciation is and how it occurs. .
