Answer:

False

Explanation:

Thalamic nuclei can be differentiated in their relationship to the cerebral cortex into specific thalamic nuclei (have links to very specific cerebral cortical areas) and nonspecific thalamic nuclei, which maintain connections to wider areas of the cortex.

These nuclei nuclei transmit impulses to the sensory areas of the brain, such as: the lateral geniculate body (nucleus) that will transmit visual impulses; the Medial Geniculate Body (nucleus), which will transmit auditory impulses; and the Posterior Ventral Body (nucleus) that will transmit impulses to taste and somatic sensations, such as touch, pressure, vibration, heat, cold and pain. Thus, we can conclude that the medial geniculate nucleus is the thalamic nucleus responsible for the transmission of auditory impulses.

Answer:

a prezygotic barrier

Explanation:

Both wild tigers and lions are said to be reproductively isolated.

Reproductive isolation is defined as the existence of barrier between organisms of different species such that they cannot reproduce.

The mechanisms of reproductive isolation varies. While some act to prevent the formation of zygotes (in case of mating) between organisms of different species, some ensures that the resulting zygotes are invalid.

Reproductive isolation mechanisms that act to prevent fertilization and formation of zygotes are referred to as prezygotic mechanisms while those that ensure that invalid zygotes result (in case of successful fertilization) are referred to post zygotic mechanisms.

<em>The natural differences in the ranges of wild tigers and lions ensure that both animals do not mate with each other, let alone results in zygote. This is a form of pre-zygotic reproductive isolation mechanism.</em>
