Answer: The type of reproductive barrier represented above is MECHANICAL ISOLATION. The correct option is 1.

Explanation:

Isolation in biology is described as a process by which two species are prevented from copulating( interbreeding) which could lead to production of a hybrid offspring. There are five types of isolation which includes:

- ecological

- temporal

- behavioural

- geographical and

- mechanical isolation.

In mechanical isolation, it occurs due to structural carried that keep species isolated from one another. From the example given in the question, the flowering plant species in which one has a deep flower tube and the other has a short narrow flower tube. The plant with a deep flower doesn't have a correct shape (structural barrier) for the pollinator ( honey bee( therefore won't receive a pollen transfer by it. Likewise the short narrow flower tube plant, doesn't have a correct shape for the pollinator( bumblebee) and therefore won't receive a pollen transfer. I hope this helps, thanks.

A horse has 64 chromosomes and a donkey has 62. Using your knowledge of meiosis, explain why a cross between a horse and a donke
nlexa [21]
Ok, so when a horse (with 64 chromosomes) is crossed with a donkey(that has 62 chromosomes), each parent give its child half of its chromosomes. [64/2=32] [62/2=31]. So the mule gets 31 pairs of chromosomes plus 32 pairs of chromosomes. That equals 63 total chromosomes. In order to be a parent, it must give <span>half of its chromosomes to its child. [63/2=31.5] You can't have half a chromosome, so the mule is a sterile organism. Let me know if you have questions.</span>
