species ranges - 2025 PACE NSC

Question

Description acceptable. These regions are constrained by maladaptive gene flow in the genetic swamping hypothesis. Rapoport’s rule constrains these regions if they appear in extreme locations. These regions are subdivided by vicariance. In one model, a series of these regions forms a "ring" (20[1]0[1])with incompatible ends. If one of these regions spans (0[1])much of the Earth, then it is "cosmopolitan." (20[1]0[2])The latitudes (0[1])of these regions (20[1]0[2])cause allometric variation according to (*) Allen's (10[1]0[1])and Bergmann's (0[1])rules. These regions are respectively extended, split, and maintained (10[1])in peripatric, allopatric, (0[1])and sympatric (10[1]0[2])speciation. (10[2]0[3])These (0[1])regions are expanded (0[1])by (10[1])dispersal and (10[1])migration. (10[1]0[1])For 10 points, (10[1]0[1])name (0[1])these (0[1])ecological regions in which (0[1])a given species lives. (10[2])■END■ (10[23]0[4])
