The correct answer is ionization.

Ionization refers to the procedure by which a molecule or an atom attains a negative or positive charge by losing or gaining electrons to produce ions, usually in combination with other chemical modifications.

Ionization can result due to the loss of an electron after collisions with other atoms, subatomic particles, molecules, and ions, or through the association with electromagnetic radiation.

Answer:

The correct answer is - Honeycreepers arose from a single species that migrated to Hawaii and adapted to different niches over time.

Explanation:

All Hawaiian honeycreeper bird species share similar muscle and skeletal structures. This suggests that all Hawaiian bird species arose from a common ancestor and evolved due to different environmental conditions such as eating particular foods for particular species.

It is believed to be a single species of honeycreeper who migrated from the mainland to Hawaiin island and adapted to different niches over time by the process known as natural selection.

Answer:

Blood Brain Barrier(BBB)

Explanation:

This is a biological interface of special endothelial cells of astrocytes, pericytes , capillaries,  neurons and other  structures, acting as a physical barrier or  gate separating the Central Nervous system from the peripheral  blood circulations. Thus it  formed a tight junction serving as a  physical barrier to  selectively regulate the entrance of substances from the   cerebral blood flow   into the brain,  therefore maintaining homeostasis of the brain.

From above any  substances  absorbed into the blood stream  irrespective of the mode of entry  are transported through  the BBB, and  are selectively  regulated to enter the brain cells by the BBB's   interactions with the blood vessels, hormones etc.

Basically it allows the passage of nutrients,  a few  drug, hormones and resists certain toxins and pathogens for the brain homeostasis.
