Answer:

Temporal Isolation

Explanation:

The mechanisms of reproductive isolation that work before zygote formation are categorized as pre-zygotic isolation mechanisms. One such mechanism is the temporal isolation.

Here, two diverging populations exhibit differences in the timing of reproduction so as to prevent the possible interbreeding between them.  

In the given example, two species of clams present in the same habitat prevent interbreeding among themselves as they release their gametes at a different time of year. One species release gametes in water in early spring while the other does the same during late summer.

Since gametes are not released at the same time, they cannot fuse together and interbreeding is not possible between the given two species.

Homeostasis is a property of an organism or system that  allows its to maintain the controlled parameters within normal ranges. Henry Barbour contributed to the understanding of this concept by his delineation of the reactions of the temperature of the body. This is in line with the same concept that was initially proposed by Claude Bernard.

Which structure of the heart is responsible for prevening blood from flowing in tthe wrong direction?
Sloan [31]
The valves are responsible for preventing blood from flowing in the wrong direction, they are present in the veins, and the arteries don't need them because the aorta (biggest artery) pumps or in other words pushes it with such a force that no other force can change its direction, in the veins there is no structure present for pumping them as a result we have got valves so that they go in one direction...... the meaning of the word valve is to allow in one direction
