Once members of a species are geographically isolated, what factors may cause them to differ from each other over time

Biology
1 answer:
Semmy [17]3 years ago
7 0
When members of the same species are geographically isolated over time they will start to differ because of multiple factors:
1. Climate
2. Relief
3. Vegetation
4. Competition
5. Size of the area (specifically referring to smaller islands)
All of this factors (if different) will require a change in the behavior of the species, change in color, change in size, adaptation towards the food source by changing the teeth/beak and thus the jaw structure (for the species that have them), develop a new strategy to hunt (if it's a hunter), or develop a new strategy for evading predators, maybe change the niche in the food chain if there's stronger competition.

Explain how the adaptation to reproduce quickly is beneficial in bacteria's ability to develop resistance to antibiotics.
azamat
<h2>Resistance to antibiotics </h2>

Explanation:

Bacteria are single-celled organisms usually found all over the inside and outside of our bodies

  • Antibiotic resistance is the ability of bacteria or other microbes to resist the effects of an antibiotic
  • Antibiotic resistance occurs when bacteria change in some way that reduces or eliminates the effectiveness of drugs, chemicals, or other agents designed to cure or prevent infections,the bacteria survive and continue to multiply causing more harm
  • There are two main ways that bacterial cells can acquire antibiotic resistance,one is through mutations that occur in the DNA of the cell during replication and the other way that bacteria acquire resistance is through horizontal gene transfer
  • Through the process of replication bacteria develop mutations that make them resistant to antibiotics
  • Bacteria with the resistant mutation have a better chance of survival against antibiotics
  • Resistant bacteria continue to multiply even when exposed to antibiotics
  • In horizontal gene transfer,antibiotic resistant genetic material is transferred between different bacterial cells which can happen in three different ways: transformation,transduction or conjugation

What would happen if a family did not have a male heir?
Wewaii [24]
If a family did not have a female heir then all wealth would pass to the nearest male relative. This explained why the goal of every Greek wife was to produce a male heir. Boys used to cut their hair and offer to gods before becoming men. The men were expected to keep their bodies in shape because they could go to war at any time.
