Their reproductive isolation from each other is complete: False
They are unable to produce hybrid offspring upon interbreeding: True
They shared a common ancestor recently in evolutionary time: False
Explanation:
A species known as a group of that organisms which can be potentially interbreed with another one to produce viable, fertile offspring. Prezygotic and postzygotic barriers separated the species from each other. It prevents the mating of viable fertile offspring.
This process happens when groups in that species become reproductively diverge as well as isolated. In the formation of new species postzygotic and Prezygotic barriers play vital role.
Explanation:
Natural selection is the mechanism that is responsible for the evolution of organisms.
In the given case, the Freshwater shrimp has been introduced to a pond in which the two species with variations are introduced.
The <em>C. cantonensis </em>is brighter in color whereas the <em>C. multidentata</em> is mottled drab in color. The predator fish can feed easily on the species which is brighter therefore <em>C. cantonensis</em> is more susceptible. The mottled drab species is not easily predated by the species.
The 30 % offsprings of <em>C. cantonensis</em> can survive till the reproductive age whereas 75% of C. multidentata. This shows that natural selection has acted on the color of the shrimp species selected against the predator fish species.
The species with mottled drab color is the result of the differential reproductive rate.
Answer:
A (-7)/(1)
Explanation:
(-7)/(-1) would be a positive 7.
7/1 would be a positive 7.
(-7)/(0) would be 0.
