On the Bahamian island of Andros, mosquitofish populations live in various now-isolated freshwater ponds that were once united. Currently, some predator-rich ponds have mosquitofish that can swim in short, fast bursts; other predator-poor ponds have mosquitofish that can swim continuously for a long time. When placed together in the same body of water, the two kinds of female mosquitofish exhibit exclusive breeding preferences. Which two of the following have operated to increase divergence between mosquitofish populations on Andros? improved gene flow bottleneck effect sexual selection founder effect natural selection

Assuming the phylogenetic tree shown is an accurate depiction of relatedness, then which of the following should be correct? The entire tree is based on maximum parsimony. If all species depicted here make up a taxon, this taxon is monophyletic. The last common ancestor of species B and C occurred more recently than the last common ancestor of species D and E. Species C is the direct ancestor of both species B and species D. 5. The species present at position 3 is ancestral to C, D, and E.

Three forest areas are being considered for a conservation reserve. Each area contains the same number of trees and is the same cumulative size. The area surrounding the forest patches is a mix of agricultural land and residential homes. Which area(s) would be most suitable for conserving amphibians, which are highly susceptible to a pathogenic (disease-causing) chytrid fungus?
