Answer:

d. Pollinators rely on the flowers for food and have to pollinate to survive

Explanation:

Insect pollination is more successful as compared to wind pollination which is completely a chance event. Insect pollinated plants have evolved several strategies to attract pollinators.

The co-evolution of insect-pollinated plants further ensures the mutualism between them. Pollinators derive their food from the flowers they visit in the form of nectar.

Due to their food requirements, insects visit the flowers and in turn pollinate them.  If insects do not visit the flowers, they will face the food scarcity. To ensure food availability, insects visit the flowers and pollinate them.

How specifies that are separated for a river, rocks, mountains, forest ; can at some point not being able to interbreed anymore
Allushta [10]

Answer:

Species separated by a physical barrier for a long time, suffer allopatric speciation, so they can not interbreed anymore.

Explanation:

Allopatric speciation consists of the geographic separation of a continuous genetic background giving place to two or more new geographically isolated populations. These separations might be due to migration, extinction of geographically intermediate populations, or geological events. In this speciation, some barriers impede genetic interchange, or genetic flow, as the two new populations that are separated can not get together and mate anymore. These barriers might be geographical or ecological.

Vicariance is the geographical separation of an original population into two or more new groups. Discontinuities in the physical environment like rivers, mountains, water, etc., are physical barriers that impede genetic flow between the separated groups.

The process of allopatric speciation involves different steps:  

  1. The emergence of the barrier.  
  2. Interruption in the genetic interchange
  3. The occurrence of new mutations and their accumulation in time in each population. Slow and gradual differentiation.
  4. Genetic divergence by natural selection and reproductive isolation makes it impossible for the two groups to mate even if the barrier disappears.  
  5. Prezigotic isolation mechanisms favored by selection once occurs a secondary contact between the new species in formation.

la reproducción se realiza a través de células especializadas conocidas como______los cuales aportan la mitad de informacion____
weqwewe [10]

Answer: Las plantas también proporcionan agua a través de los estomas y los animales proporcionan o liberan agua a través de la respiración, la transpiración y la micción.

Explanation: Las plantas también proporcionan agua a través de los estomas y los animales proporcionan o liberan agua a través de la respiración, la transpiración y la micción. Las plantas tienen una pequeña abertura llamada estoma por la cual la planta toma aire dentro de su cuerpo y libera agua para regular su temperatura mientras que por otro lado, los animales liberan agua de su cuerpo a través de la respiración en forma de vapores y de la micción en forma de líquido.
