Darwin finches are related to which of the following evidences ?
Fossils
Embryology
Anatomy
Geographical distribution
D.
Geographical distribution
The study of geographical distribution and factors controlling the organism is called biogeography. Darwin studied the biogeography of shape and size of the beak of birds. These birds are now called Darwin's finches.
The correct match of atmospheric gases is :
Nitrogen - 0.03%; Oxygen - 78.08%; Argon - 0.93%; CO2 - 20.95%
Nitrogen - 78.08%; Oxygen - 20.95%; Argon - 0.03%; CO2 - 0.03%
Nitrogen - 0.03%; Oxygen - 78.08%; Argon - 20.95%; CO2 - 0.93%
Nitrogen - 78.08%; Oxygen - 20.95%; Argon - 0.93%; CO2 - 0.03%
Allopatric speciation is due to :
geographical separation of population
hybridization between closely related species
migration of the members of a species from one to other population
both (b) and (c)
Prototherians are the connecting links between:
amphibians and aves
reptiles and mammals
fishes and amphibians
reptiles and amphibinas
What is a key stone species ?
A rare species that has minimal impact on biomass and on other species in community
A dominant species that constitutes a large proportion of biomass, which affects many other species
A common species that has plenty of biomass, yet has a fairly low impact on the community's organization
A species which makes up only a small proportion of the total biomass of a community, yet has a huge impact on the community's organization and survival
Evolutionary convergence is characterized by:
development of characteristics by random mating
replacement of common characteristic in different related groups
development of dissimilar characteristics in closely related groups
development of a common set of characteristics in groups of different ancestry
