A certain species of salamander was split into two populations by a wide, dry valley, and the populations began to diverge from

each other. After a period of time, some members of the two populations began to interbreed in a hybrid zone at the southern end of the valley. Only weak reproductive barriers existed by this time, so the two populations could freely interbreed and re-establish gene flow. This outcome in a hybrid zone is known as _____.

<h2>The correct answer is: Fusion.</h2>

Explanation:

  • In the course of speciation in salamander the following events occurred:
  1. Two populations of a particular species of salamander got geographically isolated from each other by a dry valley.
  2. Each of the populations developed independently of each other according to the environment each of them were exposed to.
  3. This caused them to develop and accumulate mutations that made them genetically diverged from each other.
  4. Ultimately, a reproductive barrier was established between them, hence they lost the capability of interbreeding with each other and producing viable offspring.
  5. But, at the junction zone or hybrid zone (the region of the habitat where individuals of both the populations lived) the reproductive barrier was weak and reproduction by interbreeding, hence, gene flow was possible.
  6. In evolutionary science, this hybrid zone is referred to as the zone of Fusion.

Before the marble starts rolling, it is potential energy. Once it is rolling, it is kinetic energy. You know it stays the same because the marble probably would not be rolling if it weren't. All that's happening is that the ball is rolling faster because of gravity.


<span>Gravity assists the marble, leading to conservation of energy. The stored energy is release as momentum, the output of energy is constant.</span>

Answer:

The given blank can be filled with a venule.

Explanation:

A small blood vessel in the microcirculation, which connects the capillary beds to the veins is known as the venules. Various venules combine to form a vein. The walls of a venule are formed of three layers, that is, the inner endothelium formed of squamous endothelial cells, a middle layer of elastic and muscle tissue, and an external layer formed of fibrous connective tissue.  

The size of a venule ranges from 8 to 100 micrometers in diameter and are produced when capillaries come in close association. A venule refers to a small blood vessel that permits the deoxygenated blood high in carbon dioxide and waste products to return from capillary beds to the bigger blood vessels known as veins.
