What happened to the greenish warbler birds as they migrated from the southern portion of their range up around the Tibetan Plat
rosijanka [135]

1. Answer;

They evolved separately as they moved north and became two separate species.

Explanation;

The greenish warblers weren't geographically isolated, but they migrated around the Tibetan Plateau, evolving separately until they were no longer able to interbreed when both species (East and West) contacted in Siberia.

Greenish warblers were thought to have evolved from a single ancestral population that gradually diverged into two new species as it expanded northwards around the Tibetan plateau.

2. Answer;

  • Their plumage patterns.
  • Genetics and history

Explanation;

West Siberian greenish warblers (P. t. viridanus) and east Siberian greenish warblers (P. t. plumbeitarsus) differ subtly in their plumage patterns, most notably in their wing bars, which are used in communication. While viridanus has a single wing bar, plumbeitarsus has two. Around the southern side of the ring, plumage patterns change gradually.

Additionally, the  two northern forms viridanus and plumbeitarsus are highly distinct genetically, but there is a gradient in genetic characteristics through the southern ring of populations. The greenish warblers were once confined to the southern portion of their range and then expanded northward along two pathways, evolving differences as they moved north. When the two expanding fronts met in central Siberia, they were different enough that they do not interbreed.

What did Stalin agree to do in return for the Allied invasion of France?
Svetach [21]

declare war on Japan once the Nazis were defeated is your answer.

In the years before the declaration of war by the USSR on Japan (following the two nuclear attacks on Hiroshima & Nagasaki), the USSR had tried to keep a good relationship with Japan to avoid fighting a two-front war (which would be extremely hard considering the great distance in between European Russia and Asia Russia. However, if USSR was able to defeat one and then the other, it would be easier.

This led to the decision to help the Allies take pressure off the landing of the French beaches (Sword, Juno, Omaha, Utah, etc), and was able to 'tie up' large amounts of German troops in the east.

In return, the USSR declared war on Japan following the bombing of Hiroshima & Nagasaki (as said above), and the declaration of war on Japan, leading to Japan's surrender.
