Assignment: SCIE211 Phase 2 Lab Report


Title:

Speciation


Instructions:
You will need to write a 1-page lab report using the scientific method to answer the following question:

  • What would happen if a species within a population were suddenly split into 2 groups by an earthquake that creates a physical barrier like a canyon?


When your lab report is complete, post it in Submitted Assignment files.


Part I:
Use the animated time progression of speciation to help you write up your lab report.

Part II:
Write a 1-page lab report using the following scientific method sections:


  • Purpose

    • State the purpose of the lab.




  • Introduction

    • This is an investigation of what is currently known about the question being asked. Use background information from credible references to write a short summary about concepts in the lab. List and cite references in APA style.




  • Hypothesis/Predicted Outcome

    • A
      hypothesis
      is an educated guess. Based on what you have learned and written about in the Introduction, state what you expect to be the results of the lab procedures.




  • Methods

    • Summarize the procedures that you used in the lab. The Methods section should also state clearly how data (numbers) were collected during the lab; this will be reported in the Results/Outcome section.




  • Results/Outcome

    • Provide here any results or data that were generated while doing the lab procedure.




  • Discussion/Analysis

    • In this section, state clearly whether you obtained the expected results, and if the outcome was as expected.

    • Note: You can use the lab data to help you discuss the results and what you learned.




Provide references in APA format. This includes a reference list and in-text citations for references used in the Introduction section.
Give your paper a title and number, and identify each section as specified above. Although the hypothesis will be a 1-sentence answer, the other sections will need to be paragraphs to adequately explain your experiment.
When your lab report is complete, post it in Submitted Assignment files.

Speciation
Speciation
Purpose
In this laboratory, we will determine how geographic isolation like
earth quake or formation of barriers lead to the development of new species.
Introduction
Speciation is the origin of new species. A species comprises of several populations. Interbreeding is very frequent among the individuals of a population and is occasional among populations of a species whereas interbreeding is absent among individuals of different species (Futuyma D.J., 1986). When a large population of a species is geographically isolated into two or more groups, each group accumulates genetic variations in its gene pool and natural selection operates separately on gene pool of each group. In due course of time, these groups become more and more different in their genotype and phenotype...
