Which of the following can result in speciation from bio geographic isolation

1 answer:

3 0

The effect of geographic isolation is that the two populations are subjected to different selection (pressures) and geographic conditions. The conditions in the two areas, if different, will produce different alleles in that species and will be selected for, where genetic differences will gradually accumulate between the two different populations.

In time, enough genetic differences will occur so that the two populations will no longer interbreed. Then, by definition, they have become different species.

What is embedded in the phospholipid bilayer that helps in the movement of larger molecules ?

gladu [14]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf A. \ Channel/Transport \ proteins}}$

Explanation:

The phospholipid bilayer is also known as the cell membrane. It covers cells and regulates the transport of substances. Certain ones can pass and others cannot, depending on certain factors like size and polarity.

Smaller substances tend to diffuse or move across the membrane quite easily. However, larger molecules have a much harder time. Many depend on special proteins embedded in the membrane. These are called transport proteins and they form a channel so large molecules can still move in or out of the cell.

So, salt, water, and fats do not contribute to the movement of larger molecules, but <u>channel or transport proteins do and choice A is correct. </u>
