RQ14-Flow Inbreeding

1)When does gene flow occur?

What does “homogenize” mean?
When gene flow occurred between populations of great tit (birds) on the

mainland and western Vlieland, what was the most important result?

Why is it accurate to say that gene flow is largely random with respect to fitness?
What is inbreeding?
What does it mean to say that inbreeding increases homozygosity?
What is inbreeding depression?
Why does inbreeding depression occur?
Expanding human populations are forcing many organisms into small, isolated,

fragments of habitat. In general, how will this affect levels of gene flow and inbreeding in these organisms?

RQ27v2-Comm,Inter,Parasites

Think of the number of different parasites (species of bacteria, viruses, fungi, flatworm, apicomplexan, etc.) that can attack humans. Is it reasonable to expect that every other organism faces a similar array of parasites?

What is coevolutionary arms race?
In most cases, what is the fitness advantage for parasites that manipulate their

host’s behavior?

Is it possible that a coevolutionary arms race is still going on between Cephalotes ants and their nematode parasites?
