1) Habitat fragmentation is a big concern to conservationbiologists. How will habitat fragmentation affect evolution bygenetic drift?
a)Habitat fragmentation will increase the effect of geneticdrift, and lead to an increase in variation.
b)Habitat fragmentation will reduce the effect of genetic drift,and lead to an increase in variation.
C)Habitat fragmentation will increase the effect of geneticdrift, and lead to an decrease in variation.
d) Habitat fragmentation will reduce the effect of geneticdrift, and lead to an decrease in variation.
e)Habitat fragmentation will have no effect on genetic drift.Genetic drift will occur whether or not a habitat has beenfragmented.
2) Which scenario would be most likely to promote the evolutionof prezygotic isolating mechanisms between two similar species in ahybrid zone?
a) Hybrid offspring are significantly larger than the parentalspecies.
b) Hybrid offspring have a courtship display identical to thatof one of the parental species
c) Hybrid offspring have low fitness relative to the parentalspecies.
d) Hybrid offspring have high fitness relative to the parentalspecies
