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.

3. Why is it sometimes necessary to use a model that is "not to scale"?
joja [24]
My answer: Because the actual thing you might be modelling might be too small or large to replicate, (for example you cannot draw a plant cell TO SCALE because it’s way too small to see with a bare eye).
And if the item is too big, you won’t be able to fit it in a small space; if you were to draw it or create it in 3D.

I hope this helps!

A virus is ________ a cell.
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

smaller than

Explanation:

But they're nothing compared to the giants of the cellular world. ... And viruses are smaller again — they're about a hundredth the size of our cells. So we're about 100,000 times bigger than our cells, a million times bigger than bacteria, and 10 million times bigger than your average virus

Hope this helps <3
