Cichlid fish had a lineage divergence during their evolution in the lake  Nagubago

<h3>Lineage divergence (or speciation)</h3>

Patterns of lineage formation can be identified when constructing and examining a phylogeny. Phylogeny may reveal that a particular lineage has undergone unusually frequent speciation, creating a thick tuft of branches on the tree. It may also reveal that the lineage has a low rate of lineage divergence, represented by a long branch with few branches protruding from it. Or it may reveal that several lineages have experienced an “explosion” of divergence at the same time.

With this information, we can conclude that cichlid fish had a lineage divergence during their evolution in Lake Nagubago

The populations of the cichlid fish are different species because they do not naturally interbreed.

<h3>What is a specie?</h3>

The term specie refers to a group of organisms that have the same characteristics and are capable of interbreeding with each other. Members of the same species have the similar genetic makeup.

The question is incomplete, however, we can truly conclude that their are five new species formed because they do not naturally interbreed.

Describe the two fields of study comparative and molecular
levacccp [35]
The anatomy (Comparative Anatomy) chart contains the ones that say " compares the limbs of different organisms" and "compares fossilized structures to living organisms".
The cells (Molecular Biology) chart contains the ones that say "compares the genomes of different organisms" and "compares cells of organisms".
If this is for Plato there should be a chart that has one column for anatomy(Comparative Anatomy) and one for cells(Molecular Biology). Hope this helps.

What happens when the density of a medium increases? A. Bending of light increases B. Bending of light decreases C. Temperature
Sholpan [36]
<span>B. Bending of light decreases
</span>According to the law of reflection, it stated that when light strikes the boundary between different media, a portion of the light is reflected while another portion enters the medium. Thus, the process in which the ray of light crosses the boundary and enters the second medium is known as refraction. However, the velocity of light decreases when light enters a denser medium.
