Two populations of birds with somewhat different coloration live on opposite sides of a peninsula. The habitatbetween the popula

tions is not suitable for these birds.When birds from the two populations are brought together,they produce young whose appearance is intermediate between the two parents. These offspring will breed with eachother or with birds from either parent population, and all offspring of these pairings appear intermediate to variousdegrees.What keeps the two populations separate?
A.temporal reproductive isolation
B.lack of hybrid viability
C.behavioral reproductive isolation
D.spatial reproductive isolation—the only reason these two species don’tmate is because of the inability of the middle land to be occupied

Answer:

Option D, spatial reproductive isolation—the only reason these two species don’t mate is because of the inability of the middle land to be occupied

Explanation:

It is clear from the question that the two bird populations with different color are able to mate and reproduce viable and fertile offspring when brought together. Hence, the only problem due to which these two bird population were not breeding with each other was their distant location and habitat.

Location and habitat are characteristic of spatial distribution and hence they were separate because of spatial reproductive isolation

Hence, option D is correct

A woman with Liddle syndrome has a child with a normal male. what is the probability that their child will have the syndrome?
lesantik [10]

Answer:

An autosomal dominant gene is one that occurs on an autosomal (non-sex determining) chromosome. As it is dominant, the phenotype it gives will be expressed even if the gene is heterozygous.  

The chances of an autosomal dominant disorder being inherited are 50% if one parent is heterozygous (NL) for the mutant gene and the other is homozygous for the normal (NN), or 'wild-type', gene. This is because the offspring will always inherit a normal gene from the parent carrying the wild-type genes, and will have a 50% chance of inheriting the mutant gene from the other parent. If the mutant gene is inherited, the offspring will be heterozygous for the mutant gene, and will suffer from the disorder. If the parent with the disorder is homozygous for the gene, the offspring produced from mating with an unaffected parent will always have the disorder.
