They survive without water by entering a special mode, otherwise called as shriveling. They can lose even 95% of water in their body and still live, even though they would look like dead plants, they would actually be alive. In the absence of water, tardigrades use a sugar called trehalose, which becomes their source of life until they find some water.
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.
