Answer:

The postzygotic isolating mechanisms

Explanation:

The postzygotic isolating mechanisms refer to the mechanisms that isolate members of different species reproductively after the process of fertilization.  

One of these mechanisms is hybrid sterility wherein the hybrid produced by a cross between two organisms of different species is sterile and can not reproduce.  

In the given example, the mule is an interspecific hybrid of a female horse and male donkey but is sterile. This is an example of postzygotic isolating mechanisms that prevent gene flow between horses and donkeys.

In neuroscience, depolarization is an "all or nothing" response; what does that
Tom [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is - The neuron's intracellular charge must get more positive to meet a certain  thresh hold in order to depolarize. If the neuron does not hit that threshold, then the  neuron will not fire

Explanation:

In neuroscience, the depolarization of neurons shows the all or none law which is also called as all or nothing response. It states that all action potentials have the same size and the potential or strength of a nerve cell does not depend on the stimulus strength as all are the same size.

If a stimulus reaches a particular threshold cell or fiber will fire so either it will fire or not cross the threshold this is all or nothing response or law and depolarization is an example of it.

In which structure would a zygote occur in within the <br> female reproductive system
PSYCHO15rus [73]
<span>Sexual fertilization takes place when a sperm from the male fuses into the egg cell of the female. <span>Human cells contain 23 chromosomes and has a total of 46 pairs of chromosomes. A male has a total of 46 pairs chromosomes and gives 23 chromosomes while a female has a total of 46 pairs of chromosomes and gives 23 chromosomes to the offspring. These pairing are responsible to the trait of the offspring. The formation of both male and female gametes creates a zygote. They will start to form at the fallopian tube, down to the oviduct and into the uterus as it continues to divide. </span></span>

Naily [24]

The homeotic genes are the one responsible in regulating or formation of the structures in animals. This is likely where the mutation is found, causing the drosophila have legs on its head.
