How does geographic isolation contribute to evolution?

Biology

Annette [7]2 years ago

Geographic isolation of a group of organisms eventually stops gene flow from other groups of same species. Thus isolated group evolves by accumulating new mutations not to be found in members of related groups.

Geographic isolation contribute to evolution in many ways. First it stops gene flow between different sub populations. Mating can only happen in this specific gene pool. Second new mutation may appear and act as an unique identity of the gene pool. Eventually the sub population would become very different from the original group. Thus, this prevents them from mating with the original group again.

What happens if a population is not in hardy-weinberg equilibrium apex?
lianna [129]
<span>If a population is not in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium that can cause deviations from expectation depending on the assumptions of HW that are violated. If a population violates some of the assumptions (like mutations, migrations and selection) the allele frequencies will change over time. Also, if a non-random mating occurs (like inbreeding), it will cause an increase in homozygosity for all genes.</span>

Axons of A alpha neurons conduct action potentials faster than any other type of neuron. Which of the following would account fo
never [62]

Answer:

Thick diameter, Myelinated

Explanation:

A alpha neurons conduct action potentials faster because of their large axon diameter and myelin.

  • The large diameter is less resistant to the flow of ions and allows for faster conductivity.
  • The myelin sheath is a layer of fat acting as to insulate the axon which helps increase signal conductance.

Answer:

Explanation:

you could do Water's Attraction to Other Polar Molecules.

Cohesion, otherwise known as water's attraction to other water molecules, is one of the big properties of water. Water's polarity lends it to be attracted to other water molecules. The hydrogen bonds in water hold other water molecules together. Due to water's cohesiveness:

Liquid water has surface tension. This allows for insects, such as Water Striders, to walk on water.

Water is a liquid at moderate temperatures, and not a gas.

Using an eye dropper and a coin, you can slowly keep adding water to the coin and you will see cohesion.

The water molecules will stick together and form a dome over the coin. Keep adding drops until the drop breaks and spills off of the coin. This is caused by gravity overcoming the force of cohesion.
