The Andes mountains running along the western edge of south america were formed by collisions between the south american plate which is continental and the nazca plate which is oceanic. The collision reasons the continental crust to clasp and form fold mountains which are then scattered with volcanoes produced by melting of nazca plate as it is enforced down into the earth’s mantle.

Which of the following can occur to two segments of a population if they are geographically isolated
lbvjy [14]

The correct answer is 4.) Eventually they become separate species

A process of formation of a new species from an existing species is called speciation.

When a single species changed into two or more separate species, is called speciation. Speciation can take place due to reproductive isolation.  In reproductive isolation, the separated species no longer can interbreed among themselves. This is happened due to mating differences, sterility or environmental barriers which finally results into the adaptive splitting into two species.

Lauren wants to know which location in her apartment is best for growing African violets. She has three African violets. She put
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

First, before determining which variable is which, we go over the definition of each. The independent variable is the one which is intentionally changed in order to investigate its effect on the dependent variable. The dependent variable is monitored and changes occur in it due to the changing conditions of the independent variable. In this case, the location of the African violets is the independent variable as it is intentionally changed, while the rate of growth of the African violets is the dependent variable as it is being measured.

nevsk [136]

Answer:

Antibiotics are routinely introduced into the food of cattle, chickens and other livestock, which causes the animals to grow faster but the negative effect of using antibiotics is the development of antibiotic- resistant bacteria.

When we use antibiotics at large scale some bacteria that live in these cattle become resistance to these antibiotics and then these resistant bacteria are shed in the soil through poop of animals.  

Bacteria have the capability to transfer antibiotic-resistant genes to other bacteria by horizontal gene transfer mechanism so it can give rise to more antibiotic-resistant bacteria which can infect humans.

So when these resistant bacteria infect humans then if we take the antibiotics which the bacteria are resistant for then the antibiotic will not able to protect the patient.  

Therefore, this practice could affect the probability of developing populations of antibiotic-resistant bacteria that cause human disease.
