Answer:

B) speciation.

Explanation:

The Galapagos island is known for the different varieties of finches (species of birds) which could be distinguished on the basis of different beak shapes and size.

This is the result of the selection pressure which led to the divergence of the species on the island through a mechanism called adaptive radiation.

Since the adaptive radiation leads to the formation of different species on the same island, the process of formation species is known as the speciation.

Thus, speciation is the correct answer.

Many soil-dwelling bacteria produce molecules that can be naturally synthesized and kill other species of bacteria. What are these bacteria-killing molecules called antibiotics

Antibiotics are effective pills which can be usually safe. Although they are very helpful in fighting disease,  antibiotics can actually be harmful. Important Facts About Antibiotic Safety: Antibiotics can cause side effects such as allergic reactions and severe and potentially life-threatening diarrhea caused by the bacterium Clostridium difficile (C. diff).

Antibiotics can also interfere with other medications you may be taking. Antibiotic side effects account for nearly one-fifth of  emergency room visits. These conditions are the most common reasons for emergency room visits for children under the age of 18. Taking antibiotics you don't need unnecessarily exposes you  to the drug's side effects and denies you the benefits.

Briefly, one can categorize the 3 types of boundaries as so: At convergent boundaries, the two tectonic plates are coming closer to each other; at divergent boundaries they are increasing they move away from each other and at transform boundaries the plates are moving parallel to their boundary. Based on this, all boundaries will be divergent boundaries.
