A flash flood carried a raft of Amazon ants away from their original population. There is enough distance between the two groups

, that they will never meet in nature again. This type of reproductive barrier is known as ______________ isolation?

Answer:

geographical isolation

Explanation:

Reproductive isolation is a process of evolution that ensures that members of different species are incapable of mating and when they do, such mating do not result into any offspring or leads to the production of invalid offspring.

There are two mechanisms of reproductive isolation:

  • Pre-zygotic mechanisms prevents fertilization between two different species and these include habitat isolation, mating seasons, mechanical isolation, gamete isolation,  geographical isolation and behavioral isolation.
  • Post-zygotic isolation prevents the products of fertilization from becoming valid and this include hybrid inviability, hybrid sterility and hybrid breakdown.

<em>Geographical isolation involves the existence of geographical barriers between two populations such that there cannot be mating between the two. The two populations eventually evolve to become different species.</em>

3. What happens to the energy that is consumed by any level in an energy pyramid?​
beks73 [17]

The amount of energy at each trophic level decreases as it moves through an ecosystem. As little as 10 percent of the energy at any trophic level is transferred to the next level; the rest is lost largely through metabolic processes as heat.

The highlighted structure separates the oocyte from the externally located ________. zona pellucida primary follicle corona radi
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

Granulosa cells                          

Explanation:

Foliculogenesis is a dynamic and complex process through which the follicle goes through many stages of development in a short period (approximately 60 days in humans and some chimpanzees).

The stages classification is based on morphological changes such as follicular size or diameter, the number of follicular cell layers, etcetera. These classifications might vary among authors but could be denominated as:

  • Primordial follicle
  • Primary follicle
  • Secondary follicle and
  • De Graaf follicles (This is the one shown in the image)

Through each stage, there are certain modifications in the oocyte, follicular cells, and connective tissue. As the oocyte grows, the follicular cells might reach a size twice or three times bigger than the ones of the primordial follicles. Their shape also changes and they adopt an aspect of stratified epithelium. Their cytoplasm gets a granulous aspect, after what these cells receive the name of <u><em>granulous cells</em></u>. The De Graaf follicle characterizes for having a space named follicular antro that displaces the oocyte to one of the sides.    

The oocyte at this point gets surrounded by <u>zona pellucida</u> and <u>corona radiata </u>.    

The follicular antro (The highlighted structure) separates the oocyte from the externally located <u>granulosa cells</u> or follicular cells.

PLEASE HELP!!Why might humans not have widespread regeneration abilities?
aev [14]

Answer:

Humans have some stem cells, but those cells are not easily available to help with healing. Most other mammals are the same, so they aren't good at regeneration either. Amphibians and some fish have stem cells that are more easily available, and are usually pretty good at regeneration.
