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.

In addition to nourishing the epidermal cells, the dermal blood vessels function in:_____.
shutvik [7]

The dermal blood arteries work in dermal papillae to hydrate the epidermal cells.

<h3>What are dermal papillae used for?</h3>

The term "dermal papilla" can also be (DP). It is described as the hair follicle of an epithelial progenitor cell's chemical and physical niche. The dermal papilla's main job is to produce the hair shaft and rejuvenate the cycling section of the hair follicle. Dermal papillae are important because they reinforce the bond between the dermis and epidermis and reduce friction-related damage in places that are often used. Moreover, The dermis has a rough appearance thanks to the papillae, which interlocks with the epidermis above it to reinforce the bond between the two layers of skin. The papillae produce epidermal ridges on the palms and soles. These epidermal ridges give rise to fingerprints.
