    Lesson 5
    What I KNOW

    1. Species
    A species is often defined as the largest group of organisms in which any two
    individuals of the appropriate sexes or mating types can produce fertile offspring, typically
    by sexual reproduction. Other ways of defining species include their karyotype, DNA
    sequence, morphology, behaviour or ecological niche.

    2. Classification
    Classification, in biology, the establishment of a hierarchical system of categories on
    the basis of presumed natural relationships among organisms. The science of biological
    classification is commonly called taxonomy

    3. Interbreeding
    Interbreeding is the act of mixing different species or varieties of animals or plants and
    thus to produce hybrids. crossbreeding, hybridization, hybridization, hybridizing, crossing,
    cross.

    4. Isolating Mechanism
    Isolating Mechanisms. isolating mechanisms The reproductive characteristics which
    prevent species from fusing. Isolating mechanisms are particularly important in the
    biological species concept, in which species of sexual organisms are defined by
    reproductive isolation, i.e. a lack of gene mixture.

    5. Zygote
    A zygote is the union of the sperm cell and the egg cell. Also known as a fertilized
    ovum, the zygote begins as a single cell but divides rapidly in the days following
    fertilization. After this two-week period of cell division, the zygote eventually becomes an
    embryo.

    6. Allopatric
    Allopatry, meaning 'in another place', describes a population or species that is
    physically isolated from other similar groups by an extrinsic barrier to dispersal. From a
    biogeographic perspective, allopatric species or populations are those that do not have
    overlapping geographic ranges.

    7. Sympatric
    In biology, two related species or populations are considered sympatric when they exist
    in the same geographic area and thus frequently encounter one another. An initially
    interbreeding population that splits into two or more distinct species sharing a common range
    exemplifies sympatric speciation.

    8. Parapatric
    In biogeography, the terms parapatric and parapatry are often used to describe the
    relationship between organisms whose ranges do not significantly overlap but are
    immediately adjacent to each other; they do not occur together except in a narrow contact
    zone.

    WHAT’S NEW:
    SPECIES: Rhinoceros
    KINDS OR VARIANTS: Sumatran Rhino, Black Rhino,White Rhino, Javan Rhino, Greater
    One-Horned Rhino, Sumatran Rhino, Black Rhino, White Rhino.

    WHAT’S MORE:

    Research 5 similar species with different characteristics.

    There are big dogs such as a Labrador or Great Danes.


    Dogs that lives in homes.
    There are also small dogs that are called Chihuahuas.
    Sphynx Cat a cat that has less fur.
    Cats that live in the house.
    Maine Coon it has thick fur.
    Eagles with almost the same The Bald Eagle that
    physical appearance. The African Fish Eagle captures fish for food.
    White sage
    Sages with different colors.
    Black sage
    Australian Tasmanian wolf
    Wolf
    North American Wolf

    WHAT’S I’VE LEARNED

    Mechanisms Examples
    1. Geographic Isolation 1.Isolation By Barriers
    2.Isolation By Distance
    3.Isolation By Separation

    2. Temporal or Seasonal Isolation The flowers grow in the same area, but one
    blooms and releases pollen in May while the
    other does not. The second flower might
    bloom a bit later instead. Since the flowers do
    not reproduce at the same time, they cannot
    cross-pollinate. This means that the two
    groups of flowers are temporally isolated. Over
    time, the two groups can split off into two new
    species which can no longer interbreed.
    3. Behavioral Isolation 1. Eastern Meadowlark
    2. Western Meadowlark
    3. Crickets

    4. Mechanical Isolation 1. White Sage


    2. Black Sage
    3. Bushbabies

    5. Gametic Isolation 1. Red Sea Urchin


    2. Purple Sea Urchin
    3. Hybrids
