A population of animals is split in half by a river. Before speciation is completed, the two halves are rejoined when a drought

causes the river to run dry. How would this impact the two populations?
A. Traits that had developed through mutation would still exist in only one of the halves
B. Speciation would still occur because the two halves would be too different genetically to interbreed
C. The two halves would be reproductively isolated
D. Gene flow would increase between the two halves, and speciation would not occur

Answer: D. Gene flow would increase between the two halves, and speciation would not occur

Explanation:

Speciation is a phenomena of evolution of a new species from the existing parent species. This occurs when the population of the species gets separated due to geographical barrier, behavioral and due to temporal isolation (having distinct mating seasons). The members of the separated populations may undergo with genetic variations and mutations which may likely to produce a new species.

According to the given situation, if the split halves rejoined then speciation would not occur because speciation requires time for genetic variations and mutations to occur. As, a result of rejoining of the two halves the gene flow will occur due to inbreeding and speciation would not occur.

What are the major homeostatic roles of the kidneys in normal healthy adults?
maksim [4K]
The major homeostatic roles of kidneys in a healthy adults include; Regulation of the extracellular fluid volume, they ensure an adequate quantity of plasma to keep blood flowing to the vital organs. Regulating osmolarity; the kidneys help maintain appropriate concentration of the extracellular fluid with respect to the solutes in the fluid. The kidney regulates ion concentration ; including the sodium, calcium and potassium ions;. They also regulate the body pH; by preventing the blood plasma from being too acidic or basic. Another role is excretion of wastes and toxins, and lastly the production of hormones, such as erythropoietin which stimulates the synthesis of red blood cell.

Jared, a student, is working on an experiment. He plans to measure the amount of carbon dioxide, or CO2, that yeast produces whe
anastassius [24]

Answer:

The foam will be formed only in glass B and D.

Explanation:

fermentation is a chemical reaction and procedure of breaking up a specific substance by microscopic organisms, or for this situation, yeast. The yeast in glass b was enacted by including warm water and sugar. The foaming outcomes from the yeast eating the sucrose.The sugar aging procedure emits heat as well as gas as a waste products. In this test glass b emitted carbon dioxide as its waste.

Yeast organisms respond distinctive in different situations. Had you attempted to blend yeast in with sugar and cold water, you would not have had similar outcomes. Nature matters, and if the water were excessively hot, it would kill the yeast microorganisms.

The yeast alone doesn't respond until sugar and warm water are added and blended to make the maturation procedure. To additionally research how carbon dioxide functions in this procedure, you can blend yeast, warm water and sugar in a container while connecting a baloon to the open mouth. The bloon will grow as the gas from the yeast aging ascents.

Help pls!! I need it right now <br> 1-4
Bingel [31]

its been a while since I've done punnett squares, but I'm pretty sure these are right:

  1. 2 because two have a dominant curly gene
  2. 2 because two are double recessive
  3. 0 because none have double dominant
  4. 2 because two have a double recessive

BTW I didnt check if you're punnett squares were right so the above is assuming they are
