The polymorphic snail species have different heritable features such as size and shape depending on the habitat they occupy e.g. bare cliffs, boulders and barnacle belts. [42] Phenotypic evolution in these snails can be strongly attributed to different ecological factors present in their habitats.
The timeline of the evolutionary history of life represents the current scientific theory outlining the major events during the development of life on planet Earth.Dates in this article are consensus estimates based on scientific evidence, mainly fossils.
An isodar, or habitat isodar, is a theory in evolutionary ecology developed in the late 1980s by Douglas W. Morris. [2] [3] Isodars model density-dependent habitat selection for one or two species in two habitats according to the ideal free and ideal despotic distributions.
Garganornis ballmanni, a very large fossil goose from the Gargano and Scontrone islands of the Late Miocene. Foster's rule, also known as the island rule or the island effect, is an ecogeographical rule in evolutionary biology stating that members of a species get smaller or bigger depending on the resources available in the environment.
[101] [102] Since the island separated from mainland Africa 66 million years ago, many species and ecosystems have evolved independently. [103] Indonesia 's 17,000 islands cover 735,355 square miles (1,904,560 km 2 ) and contain 10% of the world's flowering plants , 12% of mammals and 17% of reptiles , amphibians and birds —along with nearly ...
The savannah hypothesis (or savanna hypothesis) is a hypothesis that human bipedalism evolved as a direct result of human ancestors' transition from an arboreal lifestyle to one on the savannas. According to the hypothesis, hominins left the woodlands that had previously been their natural habitat millions of years ago and adapted to their new ...
