The original population of salamanders migrated southward from the north of California. They avoided the Central Valley because

it was too dry and hot for them to live there. As they moved south, the eastern and western salamander populations evolved and by the time they got together again in Southern California, they could no longer interbreed and had become two new species of salamanders.
Identify the main mode of isolation of eastern and western salamanders in Southern California.

A. The populations evolved separately because they were temporally isolated.
B. The populations evolved separately because they were behaviorally isolated.
C. The populations evolved separately because they were geographically isolated.
D. The populations evolved separately because they were reproductively isolated.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Geographical isolation is a term that refers to a population of plants or animals that are separated from mating with the other organisms of the same species.

This is due to the separation of the organism because they are geographically isolated from one another. Here some members of the same species are isolated from the other members of the same species.

The eastern and western salamanders are isolated by each other because of geographical isolation.

A single strand of DNA helix consists of 100 nitrogenous base pairs. On one strand, 36 of the bases are adenine and 24 are cytos
Katena32 [7]
Hello!

For the complementary strand of DNA, 36 Thymine bases and 24 Guanine bases would complete the proper base pairing. 

This is given by the concept of complementarity. A base in DNA has complementarity with only one other base. This complementarity is produced by hydrogen bond interactions.

For DNA, Adenine couples with Thymine and Cytosine couples with Guanine. So the 36 adenine bases will couple with 35 thymine bases, and so on. 

Have a nice day!

to classify it as a protostome, zoologist must see for the mouth development in the embryo.

How does biodiversity depend on a species' ability to reproduce
bekas [8.4K]
Biodiversity depends on a species' ability to reproduce itself. If a species cannot reproduce then it will die out. This depends on the climatic conditions of the region. If there is a natural disaster for example, it will affect a species' ability to reproduce. This reduces the number of diverse species on earth. Biodiversity is the recognised variety of different types of life found on the earth. It also measures the variety of number and variety of plants, animals and other organisms found in different ecosystems.

If female deer mates with male deer that have large antlers 2 we are witnessing_____ selection.
valkas [14]
The answer would be natural selection.

The female deer might consider the large antlers of the male deer to show of certain genetic qualities that have a higher probability of reproduction, as well as a higher social status among  deers. 

This means that if she picks him as her mate during this season, their offspring will have a better chance of survival compared to her picking another deer with smaller antlers.

This is called natural selection because she will pick the deer that is most adapted to that environment. Thus their offspring can be ensured to have the highest possible probability to survive.
