If there was a sudden, significant event in the area (such as a volcanic eruption) then a population with higher biodiversity is more likely to contain at least 1 species which will be adapted enough to survive in the changed environment than an area with lower species diversity.

Which organisms are not examples of an adaptive radiation?

gavmur [86]

Answer:

Option B, Mammals and reptiles in the post-dinosaur age.

Explanation:

Adaptive radiation is mechanism through which species evolve very fast from common single ancestors. In simple words two different species are said to have evolved through adaptive radiation when they have descended from a single lineage. This is not the case with mammals and reptiles.

Generally in adaptive radiation, a species evolve when it faces new environmental challenges due to change of habitat or area. For example mammals have evolved from dinosaurs.

Hence, option B is correct

Although ascospores are produced by mitotic division, none of the spores develop into fungi that are identical to either parenta

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

Explanation:

The correct answer would be that <u>the spores inherit half of their genes from each parent.</u>

<em>The ascospores start their journey through the fusion of 2 haploid nuclei (karyogamy) to form a diploid zygote nucleus. The zygote nucleus develops and then divides by meiosis to produce 4 haploid daughter cells. Each daughter cell then divides mitotically, making it eight haploid nuclei at the end.</em>

Hence, each spore inherits half of its gene from different nuclei.

The correct option is A.
