Answer:

Tropical- rain forests are considered to be the lungs of the  Earth due to their role in the carbon-oxygen cycle. The rain forests take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen into the Earth hence, providing the Earth with an abundance of oxygen. The working of these tropical rain forests is just like the working of our lungs, lungs remove carbon dioxide from the body and supply oxygen. Tropical rain forests carbon dioxide for the Earth and supplies it with oxygen.

When diversity is added to a population through gene mutation or genetic recombination or removed by natural selection or genetic drift, features undergo evolutionary alteration. the gradual genetic change within a population. What is the most likely outcome if two species rejoin after many generations if allopatric speciation has place after a population split into two different populations?
