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.

What does Archimedes’ Principle state?
Nastasia [14]
The Archimede's principle states that when an object is immersed under a body of water the amount of water rose from its initial level is the amount of matter in the object immersed.

For example, a graduated cylinder was filled with 25 cm3 of water, then pebble was put inside the cylinder -the water rose and became 35 cm3. the difference between the final volume and the initial volume is the volume of that pebble. And it is 10.
