Answer:
Speciation was allopatric or peripatric, but would depend on the number of individuals that dispersed from the original populations.
Explanation:
The new species can be formed in one of the three ways that are allopatric, peripatric, and parapatric speciation.
The allopatric speciation gives rise to new species due to the geographical barriers present between them and the peripatric speciation occurs when a small population enters into a new habitat.
In the given question, species A is more closely related to species B as to species C. This could be due to the allopatric speciation or peripatric speciation but it would depend on the number of the individuals of the population that dispersed to a different elevation which provided a new niche.
Thus, the selected option is correct.
Answer:
I. solid waste material settle out
Explanation:
In the primary sedimentation stage, sewage flows through large tanks, commonly called primary sedimentation tanks. The tanks are<u> used to settle sludge while grease and oils rise to the surface and are skimmed off.</u> Primary settling tanks are usually equipped with mechanically driven scrapers.
On the other hand, bacteria break down 85%-90% of organic matter is a <u>biological step</u> in the sewage treatment plant. Chlorine, ozone, or ultraviolet light are used in the <u>chemical step</u> of the sewage treatment plant.
Answer: Germline mutation
A germline mutation is a mutation in the fully developed germ cells (sperm and ovum). These defective mutated cells fuse to form zygote. The zygote rapidly produces all somatic and germline cells in the offsprings which are also mutated. Therefore, mutation is transmitted from parents to offsprings. Cystic fibrosis is a result of germline mutation. This disease is hereditary in nature passes from parents to the offsprings. If a child receives CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) mutated gene from both the parents than the child will be affected by the symptoms of this disease. If the child receives a single copy of CFTR gene from either of the parent than the child will be the carrier of disease.The mutated gene may be present in the germline cells of the parent or on all the body cells.
