Species evolve independently possibly due to geographical isolations or behavioural isolations.
Geographical isolation includes the isolation of 2 groups of the same species. Since these 2 groups live in different locations, (e.g. a volcanic eruption resulting in a barrier between one side of an ocean and another side of the ocean), they will have different selection pressures in their different environments as well (e.g. one side of the ocean may have more sunlight and thus more underwater plantations than the other side of the ocean). Natural selection will eliminate those with disadvantageous characteristics (e.g. Fishes that only eat plants and nothing else on the side of the ocean with little plantations) with unfavourable alleles, and select for those with advantageous characteristics (e.g. Fishes are able to eat plants and other organic substances as well on the side of the ocean with little plantations) with favourable alleles.
Since the 2 groups have different selection pressures, natural selection will occur in different ways, selecting for and against different types of fishes with different types of alleles. Also, because of the barrier, they are not able to mate with each other, and there are no mixing of genes from one side of the ocean and the other side. They are genetically isolated. As genetic drift occurs over time, their gene pools become different from each other. Thus, they evolve independently.

Answer:
Animalia - multicellular, eukaryotic
Plantae - vacuolate eukaryotic cells, multicellular
Protista - unicellular and multicellular, eukaryotic
Fungi - decomposers, non-motile
Eubacteria - unicellular, prokaryotic
Archaebacteria - no peptidoglycan, glycoproteins and polysaccharides in cell walls.
Hope that helps. :)
Answer:
Oil workers activities involved in the exploration of crude oil and natural gas creates pollution which affects the ecosystem negatively. The various pollutions cause the death of plant and animal life both on land and in water bodies.
The oil workers should be more careful in their activities to prevent oil spillage as much as possible and if there is any at all then there should be adequate measures in the cleaning it up efficiently through biological and harmless chemicals.
Answer:
a. the segmented body plan of the annelids
Explanation:
- lophotrochozoan is a taxonomy of animals that includes annelids, bryozoans, and brachiopods.
- This taxonomy of creatures was defined in 1995 as the last ancestor of the taxa of worms, mollusks, and annelids. Their classical definition depends on the topology of the spiral tree of life.
- Annelids have a segmented body part wherein the external morphological features are repeated in every body segment. It allows the animal to become bigger and makes their movement more fat and efficient.
As far as I know, only the 3rd step, from all the mentioned above occur during meiosis I.
Hope it helped,
Happy homework/ study/ exam!
