Bird guides once listed the myrtle warbler and Audubon's warbler as distinct species. Recently, these birds have been classified
taurus [48]

Answer:

The correct answer is A). The two forms are observed to interbreed successfully where their habitats overlap.

Explanation:

According to the biological species concept, the members in a population which interbreed with each other and produce viable offsprings comes under the same species. This classification does not involve morphology because even organisms having the same morphology can be of different species because they do not interbreed with each other in nature.

So here myrtle warbler and Audubon's warbler must be found interbreeding with each other and producing offsprings which have good survival rate and reproductive capability so this information might allowed scientists to reclassify these bird in the same species because only members of same species interbreed with each other. So the correct answer is A.

Paano sinulusyunan ni manuel roxas ang lugmok na ekonomiya ng bansa na siyang naapektuhan ng dahil sa digmaan????
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

Manuel Roxas, (born Jan. 1, 1892, Capiz, Phil.—died April 15, 1948, Clark Field, Pampanga), political leader and first president (1946–48) of the independent Republic of the Philippines.

After studying law at the University of the Philippines, near Manila, Roxas began his political career in 1917 as a member of the municipal council of Capiz (renamed Roxas in 1949). He was governor of the province of Capiz in 1919–21 and was then elected to the Philippine House of Representatives, subsequently serving as Speaker of the House and a member of the Council of State. In 1923 he and Manuel Quezon, the president of the Senate, resigned in protest from the Council of State when the U.S. governor-general (Leonard Wood) began vetoing bills passed by the Philippine legislature. In 1932 Roxas and Sergio Osmeña, the Nacionalista Party leader, led the Philippine Independence Mission to Washington, D.C., where they influenced the passage of the Hare-Hawes-Cutting Act. Roxas was later opposed by Quezon, who held that the act compromised future Philippine independence; the Nacionalista Party was split between them on this issue.
