Use the following information to answer the question. About 3 million years ago, the Isthmus of Panama (a narrow strip of land connecting North and South America) formed, dividing marine organisms into Pacific and Caribbean populations. Researchers have examined species of snapping shrimp on both sides of the isthmus. Based on the morphological species concept, there appeared to be seven pairs of species, with one species of each pair in the Pacific and the other in the Caribbean. The different species pairs live at somewhat different depths in the ocean. Using mitochondrial DNA sequences, the researchers estimated phylogenies and found that each of these species pairs, separated by the isthmus, were indeed each other's closest relatives. The researchers investigated mating in the lab and found that many species pairs were not very interested in courting with each other, and any that did mate almost never produced fertile offspring. (Reference: Y. Kondo and A. Kashiwagi. 2004. Experimentally induced autotetraploidy and allotetraploidy in two Japanese pond frogs. Journal of Herpetology 38(3):381-92.) If the isthmus formed gradually rather than suddenly, what pattern of genetic divergence would you expect to find in these species pairs

Briefly describe the scenario that was discussed in the behaving brain that demonstrated that the brain can change based on state or mood. which disease could the research involving rats and learning experiments that was discussed in the behaving brain ultimately with? in the behaving brain, what is a common misunderstanding about amnesia that was mentioned? what is the truth about amnesia that's mentioned? what does research discussed in the responsive brain show to be different in men and women's reaction to touch? what was discussed in the responsive brain as being brain-based and a vital part of normal growth and development in young children? in the responsive brain, what do they discuss as a possibility for leading to deficiencies in cognitive impairment as we age? in the responsive brain, what did the research involving african cichlid fish demonstrate? briefly describe the back story and affliction of the author of peter pan. what did you find most interesting about the behaving brain video, and why? what did you find most interesting about the responsive brain video, and w

In 1959, doctors began using the powerful antibiotic methicillin to treat infections of staphylococcus aureus, but within two years, methicillin-resistant strains of s. aureus (mrsa) appeared. how did the resistant strains of s. aureus emerge? in 1959, doctors began using the powerful antibiotic methicillin to treat infections of staphylococcus aureus, but within two years, methicillin-resistant strains of s. aureus (mrsa) appeared. how did the resistant strains of s. aureus emerge? staphylococcus aureus bacteria that were able to synthesize cell walls using a protein that was not affected by methicillin survived the methicillin treatments and reproduced at higher rates than did other individuals. over time, these resistant individuals became increasingly common. in response to treatment of staphylococcus aureus infections with methicillin, some bacteria began to synthesize cell walls using a protein that was not affected by methicillin. these bacteria survived the methicillin treatments and reproduced at higher rates than did other individuals. over time, these resistant individuals became increasingly common. in response to treatment of staphylococcus aureus infections with methicillin, bacterial populations gradually began to synthesize cell walls using a protein that was not affected by methicillin.
