Answer:

b. A deep, narrow river divides a population of hummingbirds.

Explanation:

Hummingbirds can fly across the river. The deep and narrow river can not separate a population of hummingbirds into two patches since hummingbirds from one side of the river can fly and reach to the other side of the river.

Without any geographical isolation, hummingbirds can continue to interbreed among themselves. The continued interbreeding would not allow their reproductive isolation and thereby would prevent the allopatric speciation.

How can protists exhibit both animal-like and plant-like characteristics?

Kay [80]

A heterotrophic and chlorophyll protist

Food is ingested by protists in three forms. We produce, eat and digest their own organic molecules. Meat ingestion or english bacteria ingests protists. The cell wall and cell membrane are stretched to create an alimentary vacuolum around the foodstuff. Enzymes extract the food inside the food vacuole. At the other side, absorbent protists consume food molecules through their cell membrane by diffusion. In decomposition, absorbent protists play a crucial role. They are assumed to be essential decomponents. Light energy is used to make your own food by big farmers including photosynthetic protists.

Answers questions . why are estuaries, such as the pamlico estuary, so important? . how would you be able to determine from whe

GaryK [48]

Estuaries, often reffered to as the nurseries of the sea provide feedind habitats for many aquatic animals and plants. Fish and shellfish commonly eaten in the U.S such as oyesters and Salmon complete almost half of their lifecycles in estuaries. Due to its shallow water,Pamlico estuary especially provides opportunities such as Fishing, crabbing and watersports as well.
We can be able to determine this concept by basing our facts on two concepts. Nutrient Influx, upon reaching the estuarian ecosystem, the nutrients in the presence of sunlight undergoes photosynthesis and produce phytoplanktons. Basically, where there is sunlight, we can assume there is a nutrient influx. Presence of Phytoplanktons will in turn help attract animals such as fish. Also, another contribution of nutrient influx is manure produced by the animals

Sewage treatment plans and fertilizer runoff. Auto emissions of nitrogen, fertilizers applied on golf courses and home gardens can contribute. Some plankton species may produce toxins that might cause these outbreaks
