If enough changes occur in the gene pool of a species, it is possible that a new species would be created.
lianna [129]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

A gene pool is the sum total of all the genes(sum of alleles)of a species and population at any given time is known as gene pool.

The new species are created in nature by four mechanisms such as geographic isolation (allopatric speciation), reproductive isolation (sympatric speciation), mating behaviour (parapatric speciation).

Due to any of these factors when population acquire unique changes in their genes and enough changes have been introduced in the gene pool of the population with time, two population become distinct from each other and not able to interbreed leads to the formation of new species.

A 1.25 × 10-4 m solution of the anti-inflammatory drug naproxen has a ph = 4.2. the ka and pka of naproxen are ________ and ____
Mandarinka [93]

Naproxen is known to be a weak acid. In order to calculate its ka and pka, use the equation of getting the ph of weak acid which is ph= -1/2 log [(Ka)(Mwa)]. The Ka value is 3.18x10^-5. The pKa can be obtained through pKa = - log Ka. The pKa is 4.5.
