Biology

Marysya12 [62]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The correct answer is C) gene flow

Explanation:

The biological species concept defines what is a species. It says that a species is a group of individuals in a population that interbreed with each other. So there should be gene flow between the members of the population to come under species.

Appearance does not define that two individual are of same species because even different species can look same for example Western meadowlarks and eastern meadowlarks looks identical to each other but they do not interbreed so there is no gene flow between them so they are not same species.  

Therefore the primary criteria for determining species boundaries is gene flow.

Yuki888 [10]

The presence of some water body like oceans, seas, or large lake in an area affects the climate such that it moderates the weather so that highs and lows are less extreme.

Climate is a type of weather that remains in an area for a very long-time. A specific kind of weather is the identity of any area and is called climate. In general, the average time period for a climate to remain the same of over 30 years.

Weather is the short term condition of any smaller area that can change at any instant. It can be of different varieties like cloudy, windy, rainy, dry, etc. Th presence of water bodies affects the weather because the water allows a region to cool down to heat up quickly.

The fluid mosaic model describes the plasma membrane as consisting of
Hoochie [10]
The answer is e, as in terms of d, proteins are not sandwiched between the two bilayers, but wedged in the bilayer to selectively let in different molecules. With c, phospholipids do not drift, into the membrane, for it is the membrane itself. With b it is the other way around, the phospholipid bilayer makes up the membrane, and proteins are embedded into it. Lastly, for a, a fluid mosaic model wouldn’t portray phospholipids drifting in the dark phospholipid bilayer, as they are an independent molecule consisting only as the cell membrane. Hope that’s helpful! :)
