Answer:

A. It allows two populations to evolve separately.

Explanation:

Geographic isolation is theorized to have catalyzed the formation of new species. Let’s say groups A and B of a bird species get separated by something, and they can’t cross between to interbreed or exchange alleles.

We describe this as no gene flow, which is the opposite of choices C and D. Because of this, they may diverge if given enough time due to the difference in environmental pressures, because they’re now in different environments.

B is incorrect because it doesn’t apply.

The correct answer is nephron.
<span>
The nephron consists of Bowman’s capsule ( where blood is initially filtered ) and glomerulus which is a tuft of capillaries. Bowman’s capsule and a glomerulus together form the renal corpuscle. The renal tubule extends from the capsule and it consists of proximal convoluted tubule (selective reabsorption), a loop of Henle (establishes a salt gradient) and distal convoluted tubule (selective reabsorption). </span>
