Types of Selection Graphically RepresentedV. Other Means of Evolutiona. Genetic Drifb. Founder Effectc. Bottleneck effectVI. The two levels of Evolutiona. Macroevolutionb. MicroevolutionOutline of Current Lecture: Microevolution and SystematicsVII. How does geographical separation occur?a. Dispersalb. Ways organisms have used to disperseVIII. Adaptive radiationIX. Reproductive isolationX. Reproductive Isolating Mechanisms: prezygotic vs. postzygoticXI. Same species vs. New SpeciesCurrent Lecture- Allopatrick and Aympatrick: How does geographic separation occur?o Dispersal: migration away from original location o Why would something want to disperse? Competition for limited resources motivates organisms to leave/find an area with less competition- Example of dispersal: Insect eggso Have a quality of hard outer shells that protect them from the environment whenbeing dispersedo Dessication: drying out-one of the biggest selective pressures on organisms on land- Examples of dispersalo Geese Flying: fly south for the winter/have the quality of wings to be able to flyThese notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture. GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute.o Strawberries: the seeds on the strawberries are not broken down by digestion so they are dispersed in the feces of the organisms that eat themo Cocklebur: have pricklers that stick like Velcro to organisms that touch them, then disperse through the movement of the organisms they stick to - Organisms have used…o Wind, flight, water, other animals, and “exploding” all as methods to disperseo “R” selection: lay as many as possible eggs in order to have the highest survival rate of offspring because dispersal can kill a lot- Adaptive Radiationo Geographic Speciation on a grand scaleo Example: when islands appear (Hawaii)o Occurs also afer mass extinctiono Different lava flows separate species on the Hawaiian islands (ex:fruit flies)/the “silversword alliance” all five plants related to one ancestor  different on every island- Reproductive isolation o What times the organisms are active (nocturnal animals)o Food source preference (fruit flies prefer different fruits, will only meet potential mates on the same fruit)o Location- Reproductive Isolating Mechanismso Prezygotic: hinder mating+fertilizationo Postzygotic: hybrid not viable or not fertile as an adulto Examples of prezygotic  Habitat: land vs. water Temporal: active day vs. active at night/different mating seasons Behavioral: different songs/dances Mechanical: doesn’t work together Gametic: eggs+sperm don’t mix correctlyo Which is more common, pre or post? Prezygotic, because males have to spend a lot of energy courting females so this is selected against, trait to select the correct female and viable offspring is selected for- Same Species vs. New Specieso Based on the possibility/potential/likelihood for these matings must be considered when deciding whether this is a new specieso Steps: If the organisms can mate If the organisms can reproduce If the offspring is o …Then the organisms are of the same
