Answer:
a. a portion of the population becomes isolated from the remainder of the population and experiences different selective pressures
Explanation:
This is an example of allopatric speciation Allopatric speciation is a form of speciation (formation of new species) that occurs as a result of geographic isolation. This means that a part of population becomes physically separated from the initial main population. There is no gene flow between these two populations and as a result the two populations reach a high level of genetic divergence. They can no longer interbreed which means they become two different species (speciation).
New populations evolve as result of mutation, genetic drift and natural selection.
For example, Galapagos finches are isolated from others by the ocean (geographic isolation). Because of the isolation, the finches don’t breed with one another. So, they developed unique characteristics and became endemic.
The primary difficulty is the fact that we do not know all of the organisms that currently exist in the world along with those that existed in the past.
Answer: They will each have 4 chromosomes.
Explanation:
They will each have the same number of chromosomes (4) as you cannot gain or lose chromosomes unless there is a genetic mutation that has occured.
Heart disease affects the cardiovascular system by plaque building up on the artery walls narrowing them making it harder for blood to flow through which could lead to heart attack or probably stroke if the plaque blocks it entirely or maybe almost entirely.
Heart disease may also affect our nervous system for there is higher risk to stroke and it is due to limited flow of blood to the brain and may lead to heart failure which may happen with heart disease that puts the stress on the brain and nerves.
The digestive system is affected by heart disease that causes the system to not get the right amount of oxygen and the nutrients that it needs from the blood.
