Answer: The correct answer is option a.
Explanation:
Prezygotic isolation is a mechanism by which mating and fertilization is prevented. Thus, it prevents the formation of a zygote.
It can be achieved by various reasons such as temporal differences (difference in mating seasons), habitat isolation, behavioural differences (different mating rituals such as different dance patterns, voice calls, et cetera), mechanical isolation, et cetera.
Thus, different breeding calls prevent the species to interbreed with each which ultimately prevent the formation of zygote formation.
Hence, it is a type of prezygotic isolation.
Answer:
the Y chromosome is smaller than the X chromosome.
Explanation:
The male has an X and Y sex chromosome which is an exception to the general rule that homologous chromosomes are identical as the Y chromosome is smaller thus enabling it to swim faster than the X chromosome. The Y chromosome also has a longer lifespan compared to the X chromosome. The male genotypes is XY. Males are heterogametic as they produce two types of gametes, one carrying the X and the other carrying a Y chromosome.
C. Both processes involve energy-carrier molecules.
