Answer:
large mammals such as gorillas
Explanation:
The survivorship curves refer to the graphical representation of the proportion of the fraction of survivors or the individuals at a given age.
There are three types of survivorship curves which can be constructed by studying the life history of the organisms.
The type I survivorship curve is the curve which can be formed with the organism which has a high survival rate at the younger and middle age and high death rate at the older age. The type I curve can be characterised by its convex shaped. The type I is showed by the large mammals like gorilla, humans and many others.
Thus, large mammals such as gorillas are the correct answer.
Answer:
Reproductive isolation refers to the inability of an organism or species to breed successfully with other organism or species.
It may arise from various factors such as:
- Geographical isolation such as river, mountain, etc
- Behavioral changes such as mating time or season, mating rituals, mating location etc.
- Physiological differences such as change in shape of sex organs which causes lack of fit between copulatory organs.
- Genetic differences.
Reproductive and geographical isolations between two populations (of same species) inhibit the flow of genes among them. Slowly, these isolations increase the variations in the gene pools of the two populations.
These genetic variations keep on increasing with time. In addition, as an adaptation to their surrounding or habitat the two populations would develop different behavioral and physiological changes
With time, these differences will increase up to such an extent that the two populations would not be able breed with each other. Hence, it would lead to the evolution of one or both the populations into new species.
Sperm will have 23 chromosomes while the egg has 23 chromosomes
