What is it called if a plant from area A develops large, flat leaves at the same time a plant from are B does, even though they are not near each other geographically?
A. Allopatric Evolution
B. Convergent Evolution
C. Sympatric Evolution
D. Divergent Evolution
Homework Answers
I think this plant species evolution is - convergent evolution.
Because convergent evolution means different species located in different area have evolved same character with same function.
Here , two plants are located in different area but their evolution is same.
Allopatric evolution means species are geographically separate to become different species with completely different characters and function.
Sympatric evolution means evolution of different species in same geographical area.
Divergent evolution means species are developed from same ancestor but after some time they become different species.

If two heterozygous grasshoppers were crossed, what would be the genotypic ratio of the F1 generation (RR:Rr:rr)? Fill in the Punnett square. B. What genotypes would be produced by crossing a grasshopper with both color stripes and one...

QUESTION 14 Below is a cartoon depicting various geological events, starting with one large island (panel 1) and ending with four smaller islands sequentially splitting off from each other (panels 2 to 5). Initially, there was only Species A inhabiting on the big island. However, as time went on, more species evolved on these smaller islands, such that at the current time (panel 5), there are five species. Their phylogenetic relationships are shown on the last panel.

1. The aorta is the largest artery in the body. Where the aorta leaves the heart, it has a diameter of about 3.2cm (that's a radius of 0.016m, area of 0.0008 m^2). The blood flow speed through the aorta near the heart is about 0.30 m/s. a) Calculate the flow rate in the aorta in m^3/s b) by the time the aorta reaches the abdomen the diameter is smaller, only about 2.4cm (that's a radius of 0.012m, area of 0.0004m^2)....

The attached organism, elkhorn coral, looks like a plant, but is actually a large colony of tiny, interconnected animal coral animals. Other than during the larval stage, coral cannot move from place to place. Like most corals, it lives only in shallow water and lacks most of the sense organs common in other animals. What is the best explanation for how and why coral animals evolved a form that is more like a plant than an animal? A. People don't...
