Document Summary
This dosnt happen with bacteria because they duplicate. Biological specie concept leaves us with a problem: ecological species concept: every specie is adapted to a certain nich and no other species can adapt to that nich. New species will get outcompeted in a nich and therefore this will explain this specie: the morphospecies concept: almost everything was don"t with morphological appearance. These morphological traits are part of the names. This morphologie concept deals with divergent and convergence. Problematic: may mask something that is there, morphology, when more investigation happens we can see a fine details which makes them different even though u couldn"t distinguish them with morphology. Most bacteria have the same morphology which makes us not be able to distinguish them, very problematic. In some specie there are a phenomenal range in appearance but they are a part of the same specie but their morphology can cause a blinding affect.
