A simple leaf blade is undivided as shown on the left (though the margins may be toothed or even lobed). The blade of a compound leaf is divided into several leaflets as shown on the right. ... Each leaf, whether simple or compound, has a bud at its base (on the twig). There are no buds at the base of each leaflet.
Water diffuses into the skin via sweat ducts which alters the electrolyte balance. electrolytes can be salts like sodium and potassium. This alters the stability of neurons causing blood vessels to constrict therefore decreasing the amount of fluid in the fingers which would normally give the skin tension. The decrease causes wrinkles.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
B is the most likely consequence because of the following facts we are told:
- After apple trees were introduced, some apple maggots began feeding from and laying their eggs on apple trees
- Adult apple maggots will only mate on the type of tree on which they were born.
This provides a geographical isolation (because they are feeding and laying eggs on separate trees) and reproductive isolation (because they will only mate on the type of tree on which they are born).
These two factors increase the chances that apple maggots feeding on apple trees will only encounter those who have mated on the same tree, and continue to mate this way. Over time, the populations (i.e. apple tree vs hawthorn tree) will intermix less and less. This will mean the genetic pool will become distinct, and natural selection will be acting differently (different habitats and different genes), encouraging speciation.
