Answer:

The correct answer is e. <em>Postzygotic barrier.</em>

Explanation:

Different species can not mate and produce viable, healthy and fertile descendence, due to certain mechanisms of <u>reproductive isolation</u>.

These mechanisms involve different kinds of barriers that make it difficult for two different species to produce viable and fertile progeny.

One of these is the <u>postzygotic barrier</u>, which avoids the hybrid zygote to develope to adultness. In these situations, there is a mix of chromosomes that can not happen to meet or that they lack information.

There are cases in which the embryo dies, but some times the individual can reach some more advanced develope stages.  If this is the case, in general, they can not survive because the organism is unhealthy. And if they reach adultness in good sate they can not leave descendence, as they are sterile.

What happens to the egg follicle in the ovary as fsh rises
Mademuasel [1]

The correct answer is: egg growth.

Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) is gonadotrophic hormone produced by the pituitary gland with the function to regulate the growth and development of both the ovaries and testes.

FSH stimulates the growth and maturation of ovarian follicles in the ovary before the release of an egg from one follicle at ovulation and increases oestradiol production.

The secretion of FSH is controlled by gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) released from hypothalamus.
