Allopatric speciation, also referred to as geographic speciation, is a method of the formation of new species due to isolation of the species from one another through geographic means.
The first step in this process is geographic isolation, which means that the original population is divided into two groups due to geographical reasons such as movement of continents or formation of water bodies.
Next, the species are subjected to different selection pressures due to their different environments. Eventually, the gene pool becomes very different for the two species due to the different selection pressures and because they are not allowed to mix.
Finally, after enough time passes, speciation occurs, which means that the two populations cannot breed to form fertile offspring.
I know how to do punnet squares, but could you show the full question please?
The
statement that best supports that belief is “both have cell wall made
of cellulose, store food material as starch, and have chlorophyll a and chlorophyll
b”.
The green algae are a
large, informal grouping of algae consisting of the Chlorophyte and Charophyte
algae, which are now placed in separate Divisions. The land plants or
Embryophytes are thought to have emerged from the Charophytes.
The correct answer between all
the choices given is the first choice or letter A. I am hoping that this answer
has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and
if you would like, feel free to ask another question.
I'm pretty sure that cells contain genes inside them.
