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.

A lab-reared strain of mice is glucose 6-phosphate-insensitive. How would this affect glycogen synthesis? Select the best answer

yan [13]

Answer:

The best response is polyose synthesis would decline as a result of the b form of glycogen synthase couldn't be allosterically stimulated. In general, aldohexose six phosphate allosterically stimulates the protein polyose synthase. However as this mice is complex to aldohexose six phosphate, polyose synthase can't be stimulated, and as an effect polyose synthesis would decline.
