Will geographical isolation be a major factor in the speciation of an organism that reproduces asexually?Why or why not?

Geographical isolation would have more of an impact on speciation if it was an organism that reproduced sexually. If a positive mutation were to occur in an asexually reproducing organism that allowed it to survive better, evolution would be very sudden. There are many factors that can impact whether an organism is more fit and I do believe geographical differences can influence this. If the climate of an area suddenly drops but one organism can survive, they will pass their genes on and the rest will not.

Moraines are made of till. They form when a glacier stays in one place for a long time and deposits a pile of till, then it retreats and leaves a moraine.

Photosynthesis takes place inside plant cells in small things called chloroplasts. Chloroplasts (mostly found in the mesophyll layer) contain a green substance called chlorophyll. Below are the other parts of the cell that work with the chloroplast to make photosynthesis happen.

The thermonuclear fusión that occurs in the sun Is a process involving What?

pentagon [3]

In nuclear physics, nuclear fusion is a nuclear reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei come very close and then collide at a very high speed and join to form a new nucleus. During this process, matter is not conserved because some of the matter of the fusing nuclei is converted to photons (energy).
