Answer:
a. a portion of the population becomes isolated from the remainder of the population and experiences different selective pressures
Explanation:
This is an example of allopatric speciation Allopatric speciation is a form of speciation (formation of new species) that occurs as a result of geographic isolation. This means that a part of population becomes physically separated from the initial main population. There is no gene flow between these two populations and as a result the two populations reach a high level of genetic divergence. They can no longer interbreed which means they become two different species (speciation).
New populations evolve as result of mutation, genetic drift and natural selection.
For example, Galapagos finches are isolated from others by the ocean (geographic isolation). Because of the isolation, the finches don’t breed with one another. So, they developed unique characteristics and became endemic.
Answer:
(all cells) Sum of all the chemical reactions that take place in the body, consisting of anabolism and catabolism.
Explanation:
Answer:
The cell cycle best repairs organism from a puncture wound.
Explanation:
Repairing in organism means restoration of damaged tissue and its functioning. In a cell cycle, a tissue is repaired through the process of Mitiosis in cell division. It helps in growth of cell.
Through this process identical cell copies are produced by which the punctured wound or damaged tissue is replaced. Thus, cell cycle is seen in playing an important role in repairing an organism.
