Answer:

D. Ecological competition

Explanation:

The small population of finches reached the Galapagos island and established themselves. The geographical isolation of Galapagos islands from each other led to the prevention of interbreeding among the populations of finches present on the separate islands.

The different populations of finches accumulated variations to get adapted to the available food. Accumulation of genetic variations and geographical isolation led to their reproductive isolation from each other.

To get themselves better adapted to the surroundings, the population of finches experienced increased genetic differences between them, that is ecological competition. Repetition of the whole process of the chains of islands led to the evolution of different species of finches.

Match the gastric phase on the left (1-3) with the correct description on the right (4-6):
dem82 [27]

Answer:

1 and 5,

2 and 6,

3 and 4

Explanation:

Intestinal phase: stomach empties and decreases secretions

The intestinal phase is the phase where stomach empties its contents(chyme) and decreases secretion. In this stage the duodenum responds to arriving chyme and moderates gastric activity through hormones and nervous reflexes.

The Chyme is the semi-fluid mass of partly digested food that is expelled by the stomach, through the pyloric valve, into the duodenum.

Gastric phase: stomach secretes juice and mixes food into chyme

The gastric phase is a period in which swallowed food and semi-digested protein ( peptides and amino acids ) activate gastric activity  which secretes juice and mixes food into chyme. About two-thirds of gastric secretion occurs during this phase.

Cephalic phase: prepares stomach for arrival of food

The cephalic phase of digestion is the gastric secretion that occurs prior to when food enters the oral cavity. Cephalic phase result from the ignition of  visual, olfactory, and auditory inputs to the brain and also induce anticipatory responses i.e  prepare the gastrointestinal tract for the meal.
