Answer:

Reproductive isolation refers to the inability of an organism or species to breed successfully with other organism or species.

It may arise from various factors such as:

  • Geographical isolation such as river, mountain, etc
  • Behavioral changes such as mating time or season, mating rituals, mating location etc.
  • Physiological differences such as change in shape of sex organs which causes lack of fit between copulatory organs.
  • Genetic differences.

Reproductive and geographical isolations between two populations (of same species) inhibit the flow of genes among them. Slowly, these isolations increase the variations in the gene pools of the two populations.

These genetic variations keep on increasing with time. In addition, as an adaptation to their surrounding or habitat the two populations would develop different behavioral and physiological changes

With time, these differences will increase up to such an extent that the two populations would not be able breed with each other. Hence, it would lead to the evolution of one or both the populations into new species.

PLATO:

Reproductive isolation refers to populations of organisms that have become isolated from each other. A geographical barrier or a genetic change can cause this isolation. As a result, the organisms are not able to successfully reproduce with each other. The two populations evolve separately from each other, likely developing different frequencies of genetic mutations and possibly selecting different traits.

iragen [17]
The answer is Na + is entering the cell and the K + is leaving, during the depolarization phase of the action potential open Na + channels allow Na + ions to diffuse into the cell. This inward movement of positive charge makes the membrane potential more positive. The depolarization phase is a positive response sequence where open Na + channels cause depolarization which in re-occurrence causes more voltage gated Na+ channels to open.

Answer:

The answer is False

Explanation:

A dependence on fossil fuels could lead to more countries producing oils, leading to greater competition for sales. c. An rise in dependence on fossil fuels could lead to minor (smaller) costs for oil, causing disputes between producer and consumer countries.

UNO [17]

Answer: Mitochondrial proteins are generally involved in mitochondrial functioning and the functions they carry out

Explanation:

Mitochondrial proteins are synthesized in the cortisol by the ribosomes and are delivered as precursors to the mitochondria before folding and remodeling processes takes place which are carried out by the chaperones.

Mitochondrial proteins which resides in the matrix and the cristae are involved generally in mitochondria functions such as carrying the reactions in the electron transport chain among others.

The proteins which are already active at the cortisol may remain there, which is why it is advantageous for the proteins to be in their precursor state so that they will be properly targeted to the matrix to be synthesized and to function.
