Darya [45]3 years ago

Answer:

This assertion is false since it depends on the type of selection exerted on the trait under investigation

Explanation:

Geographic isolation is caused by physical barriers such as, for example, rivers, mountains, longer distances, etc, which prevent the interchange of genetic material among populations of the same species. Over time, complete geographic isolation leads to genetic isolation among populations and the development of reproductive barriers, resulting in the separation in two species (speciation). Intermediate populations prevent speciation by enabling gene flow among populations. In consequence, intermediate populations often exhibit intermediate traits as a consequence of bidirectional gene flow; however, there are cases where a given trait is favored by non-directional selection, thereby favoring phenotypic values exhibited by marginal populations localized at the extreme distributional range of the species.

creativ13 [48]
In the process of the nitrogen cycle. <span>                
The nitrogen cycle is a biogeochemical succession process of nitrogen that involves: fixation, ammonification, nitrification, and denitrification. Like any other biogeochemical cycles. This process undergoes and affects the biological, geometrical and chemical aspects in the ecosystem and the abiotic and biotic community. Hence, the nitrogen cycle leads the abiotic component –nitrogen- to contribute to the biotic community, decomposition and primal production. Further, it becomes an essential part of the environment because some life components are contains it, similarly, amino acids, nucleic acids in RNA and DNA.  </span><span> </span>

What percent of the sunlight is actually converted into chemical energy via photosynthesis?
kirill115 [55]

Photosynthesis is a process in which green plants and few organisms use sunlight to synthesize their food from carbon di- oxide and water. In plants, during photosynthesis, green pigment known as chlorophyll is involved and oxygen is generated at a by product.

All the sunlight falling on plant is not absorbed. Only half of the falling light which lies in the right frequency to power photosynthesis is absorbed. Out of this falling light, only 8 % to 11% is absorbed by the plant and only 3 % to 6 % is actually used to form chemical energy.
