Document Summary
An organism that can tolerate wide range of temp , but a very high sensitivity to salinity . ( narrowest. Complications of the theory - several factors range of may interact adaptability ) to effect adaptability. I wide temps, but some combos are lethal. & mining - mine tailings ( think acid mine drainage grasses live on toxic soils. Detected using reciprocal transplant experiment switch grasses from the soils poisoned grasses. Clean soil treatment poisoned grass poisoned soil ( control ) Prediction of local adaptation hypothesis poisoned grass can"t survive. Clean grass can"t survive in clean soil ( survival. /reproduction rates are lower ) in toxic soil ( survival. Why don"t plants from polluted soil do better in dean soil ? wasting energy trying to protect themselves from a toxin that isn"t there . not using that energy for reproduction. Flow chart ( check with michaela ) for transplant experiments.
