Answer:

C. habitat isolation; temporal isolation; behavioral isolation; mechanical isolation; gamete isolation.

Explanation:

Reproductive Barriers may be of any type which includes habitat isolation; temporal isolation; behavioral isolation; mechanical isolation; gamete isolation. All these examples are categorized under prezygotic barriers.

Habitat isolation: It occurs in case of allopatric speciation, initially all the members of a species can mate with each other but later on due to geographic barriers like due to a rift, their habitat separates and they cannot mate with each other and later on they evolve as separate species.

Temporal isolation: In temporal isolation, reproductive barrier is different time/season of breeding like American toads and Fowler's toad both are closely related and have potential to mate but due to different mating season they are unable to mate with each other. American toads mate during summers while Fowler's toad mate during late summers.

Behavioral isolation: When the members of two closely related species behave and respond to different mating behavior, it is known as behavioral isolation. For example breeding calls.

Mechanical isolation: Mechanical isolation occurs because of structural or chemical barriers. For example: when the shape of pollinator does not match with that of flower then the male gametes will not be able to reach to the egg cell.

Gamete isolation: When the gametes are unable to fuse due to any reason like less mobility of sperm in the female reproductive tract.

Which statement best illustrates how an organism maintains homeostasis? Question 10 options: Parents pass their traits to their
geniusboy [140]
Remember homeostatsis is when an organism's body tries to maintain adequate body temperature.This is done through the method of cooling.Furthermore ,in humans we sweat in order to achieve this cooling effect .that being said the only one here that would make sense is C)A dog panting after a long walk on a hot July day.The reason this answer would be correct is becausethis is a dog's method of cooling ,as they don't have sweat glands .Therefore they pant to maintain homeostasis.
