Why should deepwater shrimp on different sides of the isthmus have diverged from each other earlier than shallow-water shrimp?
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

Reproductive isolation occurs faster in deep-water shrimp than shallow-water shrimp.

Explanation:

Though in the same territory, the blockage caused by the isthmus would quickly and permanently isolate shrimps living in the deeper parts of the water, thus making them unable to breed. This situation would then caused lack of gene flow within the deep-water shrimps , and the emergence of new species that are genetically different (diverge) from one another

The shallow-water shrimp, on the other hand, experience minimal isolation due to the shallowness of water, and could still breed with one another. Thus, they experience a relatively lower reproductive isolation

Does anyone know what type of big this is or worm or slug or something
Annette [7]

Hello Friend, I don't think so that it is a worm or a slug. This more looks like a larvae of an insect. I am pretty sure that is is Black Soldier Fly Larvae.

If you search up "Black Soldier Fly Larvae" you would see lots of information about them. Or you can just search up "Black larvae" and see which image matches to yours the best.

Hope this Helps!!!
