Reproductive isolation refers to the situation where different species live in the same area, but properties of individuals prevent them from interbreeding. the thing which stop species or groups of organisms reproducing sexually are called isolating mechanisms. hope this helps

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

The birds will no longer molt brown feathers for white ones.

Explanation:

Over time the birds with white feathers will slowly die off (mostly dude to predators), and over time the birds will likely no longer have white feathers, and they will no longer molt from brown to white and white to brown. The feathers will likely stay brown year round.

The diploid number of chromosomes in the mustard plant, Arabidopsis thaliana, is 10. Knowing this, answer the following question
lukranit [14]

Answer:

10 chromosomes/sister chromatids

Explanation:

Prophase is the first stage of cell division (mitosis). Prior to the cell entering the actual division stage, it undergoes a phase where it prepares its content and most importantly undergo the duplication of its genetic material (DNA). This DNA are found as chromosomes. It undergoes replication of its DNA in the S-phase of interphase stage.

Since Arabidopsis thaliana has 10 chromosomes, and each chromosome holds one DNA molecule, 10 molecules of DNA will be present in the mustard plant's genome. These 10 molecules of DNA will be replicated on another copy of chromosome which is identical to the template. This chromosomes are called SISTER chromatids i.e. replicated chromosome. Each sister chromatids are held together at the centromere and are considered one individual chromosome until they separate during anaphase stage.

Hence, at the Prophase stage, before separation, each sister chromatid (replicated chromosome) is considered as one chromosome. Thus, in the mustard plant with 10 chromosomes, it will possess 10 sister chromatids or chromosomes at the Prophase stage.

N.B: When sister chromatids separate during anaphase stage, they will be regarded as individual chromosomes.

Small proteins released from tissue cells infected with viruses, as well as from activated lymphocytes and macrophages, are called Interferons

<h3>What are Interferons ?</h3>

A collection of signalling proteins known as interferons are produced and released by host cells in response to the presence of certain viruses. Typically, a virus-infected cell will release interferons, boosting the antiviral defences of neighbouring cells.

  • They are released by infected cells, where they trigger the innate immune system's production of cytokines as well as natural killer cell activity and antigen presentation.

  • By establishing cytokine barriers, interferons shield uninfected cells from subsequent viral infections. Additionally, they prevent cellular division and control the organism's immune response.
