APES Types of Species Questions and
Answers
species diversity - answer number of different species a community contains
combined with the relative abundance of individuals within each of those species

eubacteria, archaebacteria, protists, plants, fungi, animals - answer the six specific
groups of species

fossils - answer mineralized or petrified replicas of skeletons, bones, teeth, shells,
leaves, and seeds, or impressions of such items found in rocks

natural selection - answer second step in the process of biological evolution

genes mutate, individuals are selected, and populations evolve that are better adapted
to survive and reproduce under existing environmental condidtions

speciation - answer when two species arise from one from natural selection

for sexually reproducing species, a new species is formed when some members of a
population have evolved to the point where they can no longer breed with other
members to produce fertile offspring

geographic isolation - answer occurs when different groups of the same population
of a species become physically isolated from one another for long periods (physical
barrier in way or when few individuals are carried to a new area by wind or flowing
water)

reproductive isolation - answer mutation and change by natural selection operate
independently in gene pools of geographically isolated populations. If the process
continues long enough, members of the geographically and reproductively isolated
populations may become so different in genetic makeup that they cannot produce live,
fertile offspring if they are to be rejoined

extinction - answer when an entire species ceases to exist

endemic species - answer species that are found in only one area; especially
vulnerable to extinction

background extinction - answer when species disappear at a low rate

mass extinction - answer significant rise in extinction rates above the background
level
