Parapatric speciation - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parapatric_speciationWebIn parapatric speciation, two subpopulations of a species evolve reproductive isolation from one another while continuing to exchange genes.This mode of speciation has three distinguishing characteristics: 1) mating occurs non-randomly, 2) gene flow occurs unequally, and 3) populations exist in either continuous or discontinuous geographic …
Speciation - Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpeciationWebSpeciation is about how species form. It is a major part of evolutionary biology. Darwin thought most species came directly from pre-existing species. This is called anagenesis: species by changing, or 'phyletic evolution'. For much of the 20th century, scientists thought most species came when earlier species split. This is called cladogenesis.
On the Origin of Species - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_the_Origin_of_SpeciesWebOn the Origin of Species (or, more completely, On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life), published on 24 November 1859, is a work of scientific literature by Charles Darwin that is considered to be the foundation of evolutionary biology. Darwin's book introduced the scientific …
Artbildung – Wikipedia
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/ArtbildungWebDie Artbildung (Speziation; engl.speciation) – das Entstehen neuer biologischer Arten – ist eine der wichtigsten Folgen der Evolution und eine der zentralen Fragen der Evolutionstheorie.Das Gegenstück zur Artbildung ist das Aussterben einer Art.. Charles Darwin stellte die Artenbildung ins Zentrum seiner Theorie, was sich auch im Titel seines …
Polyploidy - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PolyploidyWebPolyploidy is a condition in which the cells of an organism have more than one pair of chromosomes.Most species whose cells have nuclei are diploid, meaning they have two sets of chromosomes, where each set contains one or more chromosomes and comes from each of two parents, resulting in pairs of homologous chromosomes between …
Cichlid - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CichlidWebComparisons between a morphologically based phylogeny and analyses of gene loci produce differences at the genus level. A consensus remains that the Cichlidae as a family are monophyletic. In cichlid taxonomy, dentition was formerly used as a classifying characteristic, but this was complicated because in many cichlids, tooth shapes change …
Chimpanzee–human last common ancestor - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chimpanzee–human_last_common_ancestorWebThe chimpanzee–human last common ancestor (CHLCA) is the last common ancestor shared by the extant Homo (human) and Pan (chimpanzee and bonobo) genera of Hominini.Due to complex hybrid speciation, it is not currently possible to give a precise estimate on the age of this ancestral population.While "original divergence" between …
Earth - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EarthWebEarth is the third planet from the Sun and the only astronomical object known to harbor life.While large volumes of water can be found throughout the Solar System, only Earth sustains liquid surface water.About 71% of Earth's surface is made up of the ocean, dwarfing Earth's polar ice, lakes, and rivers.The remaining 29% of Earth's surface is …
Genetic variation - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_variationWebGeographic variation means genetic differences in populations from different locations. This is caused by natural selection or genetic drift.. Measurement. Genetic variation within a population is commonly measured as the percentage of polymorphic gene loci or the percentage of gene loci in heterozygous individuals. The results can be very useful in …
Phylogenetics - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PhylogeneticsWebIn biology, phylogenetics (/ ˌ f aɪ l oʊ dʒ ə ˈ n ɛ t ɪ k s,-l ə-/; from Greek φυλή/φῦλον [phylé/phylon] "tribe, clan, race", and γενετικός [genetikós] "origin, source, birth") is the study of the evolutionary history and relationships among or within groups of organisms.These relationships are determined by phylogenetic inference methods that focus on observed …
