Mashcka [7]

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.

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Liquid equivalent to "cytoplasm" and the particles equivalent to "organelles".

Explanation:

While comparing a liquid salad dressing to a cell, the liquid will be equivalent to "cytoplasm" because cytoplasm is a thick solution present in each cell that made up of water, salts, and proteins.

The particles would be equivalent to "organelles" because as particles float in liquid salad adding flavours to the salad likewise organelles are present in a cell floating in the cytoplasm that performs a specific function.

Hence, the correct answer is " liquid will be equivalent to "cytoplasm" and the particles will be equal to "organelles".
