Solution:

People that born with hemophilia lack or have a low amount of a clotting factor.

Coagulation factors are proteins necessary for normal blood clotting.

Coagulation factors are found in blood plasma. These factors act with Thrombocytes to clot blood.

However, hemophilia is not a decrease in Thrombocytes but a decrease in coagulation factors due to genetic causes.

Diagnosis includes screening tests and clotting factor analysis. Screening tests are blood tests that show whether the blood is clotting properly. Clotting factor tests can reveal a deficiency of clotting factors in the blood plasma and determine the level of severity of hemophilia.

As the coagulation factors are in Blood plasma, we can conclude that the correct answer is:

BLOOD PLASMA

Species A has a breeding call that is completely different from Species B. This difference in breeding call leads to
Minchanka [31]

Answer: The correct answer is option a.

Explanation:

Prezygotic isolation is a mechanism by which mating and fertilization is prevented. Thus, it prevents the formation of a zygote.

It can be achieved by various reasons such as temporal differences (difference in mating seasons), habitat isolation, behavioural differences (different mating rituals such as different dance patterns, voice calls, et cetera), mechanical isolation, et cetera.

Thus, different breeding calls prevent the species to interbreed with each which ultimately prevent the formation of zygote formation.

Hence, it is a type of prezygotic isolation.

The similar shapes of fast swimming marine predators are an example of:__________
Sidana [21]

Answer: convergent evolution

Explanation:

The similar shapes of fast swimming marine predators are an example of convergent evolution.

Convergent evolution shows how different species possess identical structures even though they evolve separately. Convergent evolution typically takes place with the organisms that are not really related.

An example of convergent evolution is the similarity that can be noticed in the wings or the flights of bats, birds, insects, etc
