1. Would separated populations of squirrels be able to interbreed if
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

No, they could not interbreed.

Explanation:

When a group of squirrels separate from each other and develop its unique characteristics, this is known as <em><u>speciation</u></em>. One type of speciation is <em><u>allopatic speciation </u></em>in which one squirrel's species separate into two separate groups and isolated from each other because of the physical barrier. This physical barrier can be a mountain range or waterway and makes it <u>impossible to breed with one another</u>. Each squirrels species develop unique genetic characteristics due to change in habitat  and genetic variations are transferred to their offspring.

In a population, natural selection acts on
Bess [88]

Answer:

<em>In a population, natural selection acts on phenotype  of individuals.</em>

Explanation:

Natural selection tends to favour those organisms of a population which carry traits that allow them to be better adapted to the environment and these traits are passed on to their offsprings. Natural selection tends to act on the phenotype of the population whereas evolution is the phenomenon which changes the allele frequencies. Natural selection acts on individual organisms of a population whereas the change in populations, on the whole, arises due to evolution.
