Answer:

Pet keeping wasn't generally accepted in Europe until the end of the 17th century, and it wasn't common among the middle classes until the late 18th century. Pet keeping in its present form is probably a 19th century Victorian invention. At this time, it was perceived as a link with the natural world, which itself was no longer seen as threatening. It also allowed a visible demonstration of man's domination over nature.

In present-day societies, dogs have a number of functional roles, from ornamental to status symbol, as helpers, and as companions. Dogs can also act as a channel for personal expression because people express their personality in the breed they own. For example, rare breeds are often used as indicators of status. Guide dogs for blind people and hearing dogs for deaf people are examples of pets who are kept as helpers.

But the most common reason for owning pets in Western societies is companionship. In recent years, there's been a growing awareness of the very positive effects this relationship can have on human health and psychological well-being, and a recognition of the therapeutic value of companion animals.

Match the type of reproductive isolation with the example that describes it. Some types of isolation do not have a matching exam
andriy [413]

Answer:

1. e. Hybrid performance

2. d. Zygote death

3. a. Gametic isolation

4. f. Ecological isolation

5. g. Behavioral isolation

Explanation:

Hybrid performance is a postzygotic isolation mechanism associated with the ability to produce hybrid offspring, which are adaptively less fit than their progenitors (for example, in this case, hydric stress is a limiting factor for the viability of the hybrids). Zygote death is another postzygotic barrier where the zygote parents' genes fight one another and thus impair the development of the hybrid zygote, causing its death. Gametic isolation is a prezygotic isolation mechanism associated with the incompatibility between female and male gametes (i.e., egg and sperm in animals), which join to form a viable zygote. Ecological isolation, also known as habitat isolation, is a reproductive prezygotic barrier caused by the separation of organisms because they live in different areas or have different ecological/ environmental requirements. Finally, behavioral is another prezygotic barrier where closely related species have different mating rituals. Behavioral isolation is a common practice in many species of invertebrates (such as, for example, arachnids).
