A species is defined as organisms capable of interbreeding and producing fertile offspring. Diane Dodd examined the idea of spec

iation in fruit flies. She took fruit flies from a single population and divided them into separate populations living in different cages, each receiving different food sources. One group was given maltose-based foods and the other, starch-based foods. After many generations, the flies were tested to see which flies they preferred to mate with. Dodd found that "maltose flies" preferred other "maltose flies.” In this case, what lead to speciation?

Answer:

B- habitat isolation

Explanation:

Because the fruit flies were separated and given different food sources, the reproductive isolation came from habitat isolation. Temporal isolation occurs when different species reproduce at different times. Gametic isolation occurs when egg and sperm from two different species cannot combine in fertilization. Behavioral isolation occurs when two species have different courtship behaviors or mate preferences and thus find each other "unattractive".

This is an animation of gel electrophoresis. which of these dna molecules is the shortest?
STALIN [3.7K]
In electrophoresis, the molecules travel between the positive electrode and the negative electrode carried by the current that is generated between them.
As seen in the image below, short fragments, due to their smaller size can travel faster than the longer fragments, so the fragments that have traveled the furthermost are the shortest. (marked E in the image)

A biology class is studying the effect of temperature on the amount of growth of duckweed in an aquarium. What type of data will
iragen [17]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf They \ will \ gather \ quantitative \ data \ using \ a \  thermometer \ and \ a \ balance}}

Explanation:

First, let's identify the tools needed.

Since the biology class is studying the temperature, they will likely need a <u>thermometer</u>. Also, they are gathering information about the growth of the plants. This could use a <u>balance </u>of a meterstick.

Next, recall the difference between quantitative and qualitative data.

  • <u>Quantitative</u>: Measurable and numerical results found using scientific instruments/devices
  • <u>Qualitative</u>: Data found using the senses, such as descriptions and diagrams.

Since the class is measuring temperature and growth using tools, it must be quantitative data.

We can eliminate choices A and B, because they claim the class will gather qualitative data. Then, we can eliminate choice D, because a beaker and timer won't help with temperature and growth. That leaves choice C as the correct answer.
