Let's say a geographical barrier separates a species into two different population. Which also cause a reproductive isolation ( the two pupolations cannot interbred)
Throughout the time (lets say a million years), the two populations will undergo a lot of changes in their respective genomes and eventually will form 2 different species.
If there is no reproductive isolation, the 2 population could interbred with one another and there will be no speciation
Answer:
Ideally, the experimental and control groups are identical. As much as possible, the two groups should overlap in every characteristic.
Explanation:
At the beginning of your study, you need your two groups to be as statistically similar as is humanly possible. That way, when you control for other variables, you can reasonably attribute any statistically significant differences at the end of the study to your intervention.

Answer:
a. Biomagnification
Explanation:
Biomagnification is the name given to the progressive accumulation of substances from one trophic level to another along a food chain. Thus, the substance will have its highest concentration in individuals who occupy trophic levels furthest from producers.
For biomagnification to occur, substances must be fat soluble (lipid soluble) and thus adhere to living tissues. Another feature of substances that undergo biomagnification is that they are generally not biodegradable or metabolized by the body.
The phenomenon is quite common with heavy metals (lead; mercury) and certain chlorinated and aromatic organic compounds with higher molecular mass, such as the insecticide DDT.
