The correct answer is option C, that is, behavioral isolation.  

The phenomenon of behavioral isolation takes place when two populations possess the tendency of interbreeding, but exhibit distinctions in courtship rituals or other kinds of behavior. For example, the western and eastern meadowlarks are very identical birds whose habitat overlap in the middle of the United States.  

However, the members of the two species will not mate with each other, possibly as they use different songs in order to fascinate males. The eastern meadowlarks will not respond to the songs of western meadowlarks, and vice versa.

Answer:

haploid (n) or triploid (3n)

Explanation:

If none of the chromosomes separate during meiosis, the resulting gametes will either lack chromosome or have diploid number (2n) of chromosome instead of a haploid number.

If an egg without chromosome (o) fertilizes a normal sperm (n), the resulting zygote will have haploid number (n) of chromosome.

If an egg with diploid number of chromosome (2n) fertilizes a normal sperm (n), the resulting zygote will be a triploid with 3n number of chromosome.
