<span>It is important that antibodies have a symmetrical quaternary structure to create two identical binding sites for antigens. An antibody is a relatively large protein having a Y-shape. Plasma cells produce antibodies which are then used by the immune system to fight off pathogens (e.g. bacteria and virus). The antibody is able to recognize the antigen of the pathogen. It binds with it either to neutralize it directly or “tag” the microbe for future attack by other parts of the immune system. </span>

tangare [24]

Answer:

(B) Lava has separated the population into two areas: an upland forest and a lowland marsh.

Explanation:

In allopatric speciation, individuals of an ancestral species may undergo evolution into two or more progeny species which arises when physical separation causes a geographic boundary, this barrier can be in the form of a mountain range, rockslide, river or lava.

As in this scenario, a lava flow divides the populations of annual herbaceous plants by altering the landscape. This will cause genetic divergence with varying heritable features among its many generations favouring different traits in the separate environment along with genetic drift. The Lava will separates the population into two areas: an upland forest and a lowland marsh.
