Instructions: What would happen if a species of lizard were suddenly split into 2 groups by a hurricane resulting in the isolation of a small group of individuals on an island far from the mainland?
Abstract
In writing this report, I will be identifying what happen to species if they were faced with a distressed such as a hurricane or tornado. Also, I will map out a plan for their safety.
Phase 2 Lab Report
What would happen if a species of lizard were suddenly split into 2 groups by a hurricane resulting in the isolation of a small group in individuals on an island far from the mainland? In conducting research it appears that the lizards separated during a hurricane survive. Lizards just like any other animals reproduce naturally and adapt to their environment whether safe or not.
Title: Speciation
• Purpose
· During research on how species of lizards split into 2 groups survive a hurricane far from the mainland.
• Introduction
· Speciation occurs when a population of a species is affected by a natural disturbance such a flood, hurricane, or fire moves a differ surrounding from dessert to wetland. A species isolated to different surrounding will change and adapt to its new living environment and ecosystem and thus, creating a new species. Separated species do not produce with the main species that they come from because of the difference in the upbringing (evolution.berkeley.edu).
• Hypothesis/Predicted Outcome
· If we take a species of lizards and split them into two groups due to a hurricane, the lizards will take on different habits and characteristics of other.
• Methods
· Conduct internet searches to identify different species of lizards and mice. Identify how they changed based on distinct living conditions. All animals adapt differently to their living environments.
• Results/Outcome
· Due to the hurricane, the lizards were separated in two categories. The Hurricane caused for the species isolation. After the separation, the species of lizards would survive living in different locations and ate adapting to their unique surroundings.
.
• Discussion/Analysis
· The analysis of this lab resulted in species separating and new species born. Due to the Hurricane, species were forced to adapt for survival. With the demands of a new environment. I expect a new species to develop and eventually thrive in new surroundings.
Explanation / Answer
Title: Speciation
• Purpose –
Analyze the effects of hurricane as a physical barrier on speciation of lizards.
• Introduction
Speciation occurs when a population of species is isolated either geographically/ biologically. This restricts the gene flow between them and further leading to formation of new species. This is also known as allopatric speciation (Butlin et al., 2012).
·
• Hypothesis/Predicted Outcome
In this case, hurricane acts like a physical barrier. The two separated populations of lizards may be unable interbreed due to the physical barrier. Also their gene pool may evolve independently based on the habitat (comprising both biotic and abiotic factors) they are subjected to. A chance mating of these two species eventually after many years may result in failure of producing fertile hybrids which refers to reproductive isolation.
• Methods
Identify the different types and species of lizards surviving in different ecosystems. Study their morphological and biological differences to understand their evolution pattern and the influence o environment on them.
• Results/Outcome
Hurricane acted as a physical barrier and divided the lizards into two species with different morphological, behavioral and physiological characteristics developed to survive under the nature’s selective pressure.
• Discussion/Analysis
The analysis of this lab resulted in formation of a new species as anticipated. With different ecosystems and habitats lizard species with different abilities and characteristics developed.
