Mashcka [7]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer is allopatric speciation.

Explanation:

Allopatric speciation occurs when a geographical barrier comes between a species population living in the same area. This geographical barrier separates the population into two different geographical area which do not have the same condition.

So as both the separated population get different habitat environment to live so they evolve differently from each other. So natural selection and genetic drift works differently in both the population which brings genetic changes in the population and helps in creating a new species.

​A carbon atom has 6 protons and 6 electrons. Carbon has three naturally occurring isotopes, carbon-12, carbon-13, and carbon-14
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The correct option is B

Explanation:

Isotopes of the same element have the same atomic number (number of protons) but different mass number. Hence, <u>all the three naturally occurring carbon isotopes mentioned in the question have 6 protons each. Since the number of protons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of electrons in the same atom, each of these isotopes also have 6 electrons</u>.

However, to determine the number of neutrons in each atom, the number of protons (atomic number) is subtracted from the mass number.

Hence, the number of neutrons in carbon-12 is 12 - 6 = 6

the number of neutrons in carbon-13 is 13 - 6 = 7

the number of neutrons in carbon-14 is 14 - 6 = 8

From the explanation above, <u>it can be noted that the number of protons and electrons in isotopes of the same element are the same while the number of neutrons in these isotopes are different</u>. Hence, the correct option is B
