How does reproductive isolation result in speciation
sergij07 [2.7K]

Speciation is the adaptive divergence and gradual that leads to two different species.

Reproductive isolation results in speciation when the processes of evolutionary mechanisms, physiological and behaviours are collected.

Mechanism of reproductive isolation helps in preventing members of different species from producing offsprings. A zoologist is a classified way of reproductive isolation whereby it(zoologist) is classified to the mechanism of reproductive isolation into two categories

(i)                  Pre-zygotic. This one acts before fertilization or before mating when it comes to animals.

(ii)                Post-zygotic. It acts after fertilization.

The mechanisms appear I species which are genetically controlled and whose geographic distribution overlaps or are separated.

liq [111]

Answer:

The power of the lens of an eye adjust or bends the light rays to provide an image on the retina depending on distance of the object.

Explanation:

The lens of an eye and the cornea work together in forming a real image in the retina that houses numerous receptors in the fovea and blind spot of the optic nerve.

Image will be formed  in the retina when light rays converging most at the cornea upon entering and exiting the lens.The power of adjusting the eyes focal length is known as accommodation.
