Recalling the Importance of Geographic Isolation

Biology
2 answers:
Nonamiya [84]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

2. distribution and abundance of organisms

3. speciation of plants

4. Antarctic convergence

Geographical isolation is the physical barrier dividing the communities. It usually stops the gene flow between species in a process called allopatric speciation, contributing to reproductive isolation.

Further Explanation:

Spontaneous modifications within the genome may arise during the cycle of cell division, called mutations. These errors occur as copies of the DNA are produced within the cell; mutations may range from small modifications, called single nucleotide polymorphisms, to large-scale deletions and multi-gene additions.

These mutations form variants which, within a population, become stable, resulting in the formation of separate, genetically distinct populations called species. Apart from allopatric speciation, new species arise through several other evolutionary mechanisms such as:

  • peripatric speciation— like allopatric speciation, however, one group is much smaller, making the unique characteristics more notable, or distinct
  • parapatric speciation— sub-populations in a large geographic region develop reproductive isolation by mating with those nearby, but continue to undergo reproductive isolation;
  • sympatric speciation-absence of physical barriers that impede the passage of genes; reproductive segregation by many variants of the same genes called polymorphisms

Which stage of cellular respiration produces the most atp?
ankoles [38]

Answer:

Electron transport Chain (Oxidative phosphorylation)

Explanation:

Cellular respiration can be defined as the process that involves the breakdown of glucose molecules into CO2 and H2O to generate energy inform of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP).  Also, cellular respiration usually takes place in the cells of an organism by converting biochemical energy present nutrients into Adenosine Triphosphate. Furthermore, it takes place in three stages which includes: glycolysis, TCA cycle and Electron transport (Oxidative phosphorylation). Thus, oxidative phosphorylation is the final stage of aerobic cellular respiration that produces maximum ATPs.

Which of the statements best describes the process of crossing over during meiosis? Haploid daughter cells trade chromosomes in
Maslowich

Homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange segments of DNA.

Option A

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Crossing over is an event of Prophase 1 of meiosis 1. It occurs in the zygotene phase of prophase 1. Here the homologous chromosome pairs get very close together and gets packed within protein coat. The enzymes randomly cut the DNA segments from both chromosomes at same loci and exchange them with each other. This results in the exchange of genes between the two chromosomes. This is how the variation comes to place between offsprings of the same individuals. The crossing over results to form X shaped intersections between homologous pair of chromosomes which is called as chaismata. This phase occurs in pachytene phase and is visible in diplotene phase when the protein coat dissolves.

What is the difference in the concentration of solutes between salt water and fresh water?
Alla [95]
Well, salt water contains various amounts of salts, meanwhile fresh water does not. However, that does not mean that animals and creatures thrive in one kind, but not the other, instead, both waters are capable of holding certain fish, microbes, and even plants. Hope this helps, please mark as brainliest if possible, thank you! :)
