The correct answer is speciation.
Speciation is the term that describes the evolutionary process causing populations to evolve into different species. There are four different types of speciation: allopatric, peripatric, parapatric and sympatric. In this case, the process described is an allopatric speciation, the most common of these four types. Allopatric speciation happens when populations are geographically separated, an event that obstructs the gene flow. Since the gene flow stops, the populations evolve in response to the different environments that they live in.

Which metabolic pathway requires a proton gradient?
Ad libitum [116K]

Oxidative phosphorylation requires a proton gradient.

  • Cells use enzymes to oxidize foods in the metabolic pathway known as oxidative phosphorylation, electron transport-linked phosphorylation, or terminal oxidation, which releases chemical energy to create adenosine triphosphate.
  • This happens inside mitochondria in eukaryotes. The majority of the energy required for biosynthesis, maintaining a healthy ion balance, and mechanical effort is provided by oxidative phosphorylation, which is the principal source of ATP in higher animals.
  • A succession of proteins and electron carriers in the mitochondrial membrane, as well as the electron transport chain, are all involved in the process of oxidative phosphorylation.

Which type of population growth is shown in this graph? Population of Bacteria
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

Bacterial population shown in the graph is of Exponential type.

Explanation:

When the rate of population increases over time in proportion to the population size,  it is known as exponential growth of population. Bacterial reproduction happens in an hour time span for many bacterial species by splitting itself in half.

This shows how the exponential growth occurs in bacteria. The amount of population gets increased with added organisms in generations of species.
