Biology
1 answer:
gladu [14]3 years ago
3 0

Cleaving a flatworm into pieces would not kill the flatworm as each piece would turn into a new flatworm. The mechanism is known as fragmentation. In multicellular species, fragmentation refers to a kind of asexual reproduction in which a species gets cleaved into fragments.  

Each of these fragments forms into completely developed, mature individuals, which are similar to their parents. Fragmentation is also called splitting, it is a mode of reproduction witnessed in various species like molds, filamentous cyanobacteria, lichens, various plants, and animals like flatworms, sponges, sea stars, and some annelids.

vivado [14]
The answer is behavioral isolation.

Reproductional isolation is a way to prevent closely related species to mate each other. This is due to reproductive barriers which can be either prezygotic (before fertilization) and postzygotic (after fertilization) barrier. Behavioral isolation is an example of postzygotic barrier. It is based on behavior, including mating sounds and rituals. Thanks to behavior isolation, the different species (in this example gentoo penguins and emperor penguins) will have different mating rituals so they could attract only individuals of their own species, respectively.
