NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The steps will be in order in the sequence 12,13,11,4 and 15

Explanation:

12. In glycolysis, glucose is converted into pyruvate. ATP and NADH ARE MADE.

13. Pyruvate is oxidized and converted into acetyl CoA in the mitochondria. Carbon dioxide and NADH are also made.

11. The acetyl CoA undergoes a series of changes and ATP, FADH2, NADH, and carbon dioxide are released.

4. NADH and FADH2 lose their electrons and get converted back into NAD+ and FAD.

15. Oxygen takes electrons and water is produced. 34 ATP molecules are released.

Why should deepwater shrimp on different sides of the isthmus have diverged from each other earlier than shallow-water shrimp?
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

Reproductive isolation occurs faster in deep-water shrimp than shallow-water shrimp.

Explanation:

Though in the same territory, the blockage caused by the isthmus would quickly and permanently isolate shrimps living in the deeper parts of the water, thus making them unable to breed. This situation would then caused lack of gene flow within the deep-water shrimps , and the emergence of new species that are genetically different (diverge) from one another

The shallow-water shrimp, on the other hand, experience minimal isolation due to the shallowness of water, and could still breed with one another. Thus, they experience a relatively lower reproductive isolation
