Sympatric speciation | | without physical isolation |
Autopolyploidy | | Divergence of biological lineages |
Allopolyploidy | | Tracing back divergence of macromolecules over evolutionary time |
Divergent species | | Individuals from different but closely related species interbreed. |
Pre-zygotic isolating mechanism | | feature shared by two or more species from a common ancestor |
Post-zygotic isolating machanism | | Does not include common ancestor |
Hybrid zone | | may come back to contact after seperation. |
Binomal Nomenclature | | closely related but outside the group of interest |
Taxonomic Tree | | where 2 species may hybridize |
Monophyletic | | derived traits reverts back to ancestral state |
Polyphyletic | | species becomes a tetraploid; can't reproduce w/ diploid |
Paraphyletic | | Does not include all of the descendants of a common ancestor |
Speciation | | evolutionary history of relationships |
R.I | | reduces fitness of hybrid offspring |
Molecular Clock | | originally presented in the ancestor |
Synapomorphies | | Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Specific Epitath |
Convergent evolution | | explaination with less assumption |
Evolutionary reversal | | anything that prevents hybridation |
Homoplasties | | similar traits from different lineages |
Outgroup | | One common ancestor and all of its descendants |
Ingroup | | simplest explaination |
Parimony Principle | | a derived trait shared by taxa due to a common ancestor |
Occam's Razor | | differs from ancestral trait |
Phylogeny | | 2 groups of organisms can no longer reproduce |
Ancestral trait | | traits generated by convergent evolution or evolutionary evolution |
Derived trait | | Two word naming sytem |
Homologous | | group of primary interest |
