Answer:
I believe its D
Explanation:
Darwin said that a lot of evolution had to do with natural selection and that seems to be around the same thing.
The answer is speciation by geographic isolation. When the population of a species gets separated due to reasons such as continental drift, mountains, canyons, etc. then each separated group of population may survive and adapt to their respective environment leading to speciation. These barriers do not allow the evolving populations to interbreed initially and over time when they evolve into different species they become completely reproductively isolated.
Answer:The second one im sure
Explanation:
<u>Answer:</u>
- few nutrients
- high pressure
- low temperatures
<u>Explanation:</u>
1. Few nutrients: open-ocean zone is located way far from the land, which is the main source of the essential nutrients.
2. High pressure: pressure increases by 1 atmosphere for every 10 meters increase in depth.
3. Ample sunlight: a large fraction of the sunlight is reflected back to the atmosphere from the sea surface.
4. Varying salinity: below the thermocline, the water is isolated from the atmosphere so the salinity remains stable over the year.
5. Low temperatures: the temperature of open-ocean zone ranges from a low of -2°C to an average of 17°C.
