How does polyploidy allow speciation to occur in a single generation? Polyploid offspring produce gametes earlier in the mating

season than than their diploid parents, causing reproductive isolation between the two generations. Polyploid offspring produce smaller gametes that disperse farther than the gametes of diploid parents, causing geographic isolation between the two generations. Physiological differences between polyploid offspring and their diploid parents allow them to thrive in different environments, causing geographic isolation between the two generations. Genomic differences between polyploid offspring and their diploid parents prevent them from successfully interbreeding, causing reproductive isolation between the two generations.

Answer:

Genomic differences between polyploid offspring and their diploid parents prevent them from successfully interbreeding, causing reproductive isolation between the two generations.

Explanation:

Speciation is an ecological and biological process through which new species are formed due to isolation.

In plants, polypoidy involves the possession of two complete sets of chromosomes and it leads to the origin of new species. Also, the two sets of chromosomes comprises of triploidy (69 chromosomes) and tetraploidy (92 chromosomes).

As a result of the genomic differences between polyploid offspring and their diploid parents, this usually prevent them from successfully interbreeding and consequently causing reproductive isolation between the two generations.

The answer would be about  18.

<span>Christmas trees give, in fact, a lot of oxygen and in return they consume a lot of carbon dioxide.
</span><span>The oxygen produced by each tree depends on several factors, but there is a estimative. In about 1 acre of land, there are enough trees to produce the oxygen necessary for 18 people to breath during a whole year!

What are the sources of energy for the processes that affect Earth?​
marissa [1.9K]

Answer: ok so Most of the energy in the Earth system comes from just a few sources: solar energy, gravity, radioactive decay, and the rotation of the Earth. Solar energy drives many surface processes such as winds, currents, the hydrologic cycle, and the overall climate system. Gravity makes rivers and other materials flow downhill and creates tides (from the Moon's gravitational pull). Radioactive decay creates heat in the Earth's interior, while Earth's rotational forces influence currents of air and water.
