What is microevolution? - The change in allele frequencies that occurs over time within a population. What is macroevolution? - Major evolutionary changes over time, the origin of new types of organisms from previously existing, but different, ancestral types. What is a species? - A group of populations whose members possess similar anatomical characteristics and have the ability to interbreed. What is allopatric speciation? - The formation of a new species in populations that are geographi...

microevolution vs macroevolution~macroevolution- evolution occurring above the species level (including the origination, diversification and extinction of species over long periods of evolutionary time) ~microevolution- evolution occurring within pops (including adaptive and neutral changes in allele frequencies from one generation to the next) ~can study fossil record, molecular phylogenetics, genomics and "evo-devo" studies of morphology to learn about macroevolution ~macroevoluti...

What is marine ecology? correct answers The study of interactions between an organism and their abiotic and biotic habitats. And how these interactions affect the distribution and abundance of organisms What is the difference between micro and macroevolutio? correct answers microevolution: changes in genetics over time that lead to new phenotypic features or life history macroevolution: changes in genetics over time that lead to a new species What is commensialism? correct answers A symbi...
