Two pods of dolphins (same species) exist off the coast of Mexico. Pod A likes to swim and play at depth in cooler water. Pod B

likes to play on the crests of waves, preferring to stay a little closer to the light. Eventually the two pods preferentially choose mates which exhibit the same preference for swimming depth. Over time they lose the ability to interbreed. This speciation event is

Answer:

The correct answer is - speciation is sympatric.

Explanation:

Sympatric speciation is a process of speciation that takes place when there is reproductive isolation between two populations of a species without any geographical separation.

This speciation takes place in the population with come ancestors as given in the question both pods of dolphins lose their ability to interbreed due to the sympatric speciation without any geographical separation.

Thus, the correct answer is - speciation is sympatric.

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Bacteriophage

Explanation:

Antimicrobial resistance is the leading world concern for the medicine producing companies. The antimicrobial drugs are meant to kill the microbes but microbes are also developing resistant to these drugs. So we need a high dose of that particular drug to kill the same organism next time. The antimicrobial medicines are applied to all microorganism without distinguishing them but bacteriophage is emerging as solution for the problem.

Bacteriophages are viruses that attack the bacteria. Bacteriophages are highly specific to bacterial cell and attack the receptors on the membrane of specific bacteria species. So these can be used to kill or target the specific species of bacteria instead of applying the antimicrobial drug to all bacteria.
