Hi Stuart, please could you look to resolve the question regarding the man with classic haemophilia in week 6. I have attempted the question and have a fair idea about it but would like some clarity on the thought process behind drawing the pedigree. Thanks

Could you go over the different types of speciation please i.e. allopatry, sympatry, peripatric and parapatric, please?

Will the population genetics and phylogenetic practical content be in the exam?

I didn't understand well the experiment done with the Neurospora.

I didn't understand how they were able to exclude the other two DNA models (conservative and dispersal)

Can you describe the process of blending inheritance with gemmuls, I am not sure to have it clear in my mind.

Can you give me some examples? I did't quite catch the meaning.

Is the plastic response immediate or is a type of adaptetion that came to help Daphnia to avoid predators eating over time?

I am not sure if I understood it right. With the multiregional hypothesis we have gene flow and so lower genetic diversity and in the out of Africa hypothesis we have the spread of the population through the world which result with no gene flow and higher genetic diversity. Is it right?

Can I make all my references from the Campbell's book?

I was assume most of the content in lectures is from the resource list and textbooks however, I have written down a lot of comments that lecturers have made? Should I reference them?

Can you explain it, in relation to the rapid diversification?

Although I understand it will vary for different questions, are you able to suggest a rough guide of how long/detailed an essay answer should be?

I didn't understand the second hypothesis that was postulated to answer to the question about how niches get filled by our descendants. It is the one about ecological release and niche expantion.

In autopolyploid speciation is it the diploid-diploid offspring (tetraploid) or the tetraploid-diploid offspring (triploid) that is reproductively isolated from the parental diploids?

Could you explain the serial endsymbiosis theory again please?

Do chloroplasts have linear or circular? In the lecture you said they have circular but I looked on google and found they had linear?

The mitochondria and chloroplast genomes encode for how many proteins? I think you got them mixed up in the lecture with the slides so if you could clarify this? thank you

Brad, you stated that in a phylogenetic tree, species A could be just as closely related to any of the other species in the tree but it is the most distantly related species of all of them. I don't quite understand this so could you possible recap this?

Will we have to be able to construct trees by the method of parsimony in the exam or just understand how they are constructed and then comment on them or for example work out the amount of transitions of base pairs?

are Allopatric and Peripatric the only types of speciation that dont have gene flow between the populations

Don't know if this has been answered already. Will everyone get the same three essay questions in the exam or will it be completely random?

On the practice MCQ, could you explain why adaptation in geographically seperated populations was parapatric speciation and not allopatric speciation? The wording seemed a bit tricky to me

For the essay questions. When we are doing the references, do we use class notes or do we have to research articles online to answer the question

how long is the exam, we were originally 2 hours but on canvas its open for 4, do we get the whole 4 hours to complete it?

This may have been answered, but is there any example questions for the essay section that we can use?

what we should write instead of intersexual and intrasexual selection in exam?

I know there wasnt any guidelines for essay length due to it being in just how many words you can answer the question in, but would ~300-400 be generally too short to fully answer questions, in your opinion?

Do we need to reference in the text and in the reference section and do the references need to be in Harvard style?
