coevolution

Question 1

coevolution

Answer 1

reciprocal evolutionary change between interacting species, driven by natural selection

Question 2

mutualism

Answer 2

positive positive relationship between species that raises each others fitness

Question 3

commensalism

Answer 3

positive neutral relationship that benefits one species but has a neutral effect on the other

Question 4

geographic mosaic theory (hotspot, coldspot)

Answer 4

populations in different geographic ranges experience different levels of selection (stronger in one area, hotspot, and nether selection on host or parasite, coldspot)

hotspot = strong selection on both species

Question 5

coevolutionary alternation

Answer 5

when one species is in an antagonistic relationship with several species

Question 6

coevolutionary arms races

Answer 6

Coevolutionary arms races describe the reciprocal evolution of traits in interacting species, driven by competitive pressures to gain reproductive or survival advantages over each other.

Question 7

attenuated (stop or slow it down) coevolution

Answer 7

virus so mf good at rabbits died before they could pass it down thus making the virus not too good in the end

Question 8

mimicry

Answer 8

mimicking another specie for your own benefit (eg. hoverfly looking like a wasp)
