Answer:

False

Explanation:

Sympatric speciation is a process of formation of new species by reproductive isolation alone. Two populations of same species present in the same habitat develop pre or post-zygotic strategies of reproductive isolation which in turn prevents interbreeding between them.  

Since these two populations are present in the same habitat, there is no geographical or physical barrier between them to prevent gene flow. Reproductive isolation prevents gene flow between them. Gradually, these two populations evolve into two separate species.

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

The above statement is <u>False </u>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Speciation is an evolutionary process in which new species arise. There are three types of speciation, namely; sympatric, parapatric and allopatric speciation.
  • <em><u>Sympatric speciation is a pattern in which speciation occurs in the absence of a physical barrier to gene flow; ex. polyploidy arising in flowers.</u></em>
  • In an Allopatric speciation on the other hand, a physical barrier arises and separates two populations, ending gene flow between them and allowing reproductive isolating mechanisms to evolve so that later if the two groups come back into contact they will no longer be able to reproduce together, therefore making them different species.

How do magnetic stripes of iron in ocean rock provide evidence of seafloor spreading
STatiana [176]

Answer:

In the 1960s, scientists found evidence that new material is indeed erupting along mid-ocean ridges. The scientists dived to the ocean floor in Alvin, a small submarine built to withstand the crushing pressures four kilometers down in the ocean. In a ridge’s central valley, Alvin’s crew found strange rocks shaped like pillows or like toothpaste squeezed from a tube. Such rocks form only when molten material hardens quickly after erupting under water. These rocks showed that molten material has erupted again and again along the mid-ocean ridge.

When scientists studied patterns in the rocks of the ocean floor, they found more support for sea-floor spreading. You read earlier that Earth behaves like a giant magnet, with a north pole and a south pole. Surprisingly, Earth’s magnetic poles have reversed themselves many times during Earth’s history. The last reversal happened 780,000 years ago. If the magnetic poles suddenly reversed themselves today, you would find that your compass needle points south.

Explanation:

I found this somewhere.
