Answer:

At a level in the spinal cord  

Explanation:

The gate theory was elaborated in 1965 by P.D. Wall and r. Melzack, to explain the influence of tactile skin stimulation on pain relief. It essentially admits that there exists in the medullar posterior horns (located behind the central canal of the spinal cord) a gate-acting neural mechanism that can control the passage of nerve impulses transmitted from the peripheral fibers to the CNS through the medulla.

The gate regulates the influx of nociceptive impulses even before a perception of pain is created. The variation in the passage of action potentials (nociceptive) that the gate produces is determined by the activity of the thick (A-alpha and A-beta) and thin (A-delta and C) fibers, as well as cognitive influences.

Some closely related species of snails cannot mate because their shells spiral in opposite directions, making it impossible for
Sauron [17]

Answer:

The type of evidence is<u> Mechanical incompatibility.</u>

Explanation:

Copulation is often impossible between different animal species because of the incompatible shape and size of the genitalia.It is called mechanical incompatibility.

This isolation prevents species that diverge from interbreeding thus they lo longer able to mate with each other.

Here morphological difference  takes place which ultimately leads to behavioral isolation and thus no mating takes place.

Here snail can not mate because  their morphological structures are incompatible.
