Answer:

Yes...This is an example of speciation by natural selection

Explanation:

As we know that natural selection always promote those evolutionary changes that are necessary. Changes that happen in chromosome number always promote with a specie that is closely related to the parent specie and produce fertile off-springs. These new generations are most adaptable and can survive in the environment more efficiently than the previous ones.

Additionally, other than natural selection, speciation can also happen as a result of random mutations, genetic drift and by means of artificial selection as well. But the natural likelihood of all these is probably low as compared to that of natural selection.

Which statement describes the ability of the cell membrane to allow various substances to move tbrough it?
sweet [91]

The statement that describes the ability of the cell membrane to allow various substance to move through is that the cell membrane is preamble and allows only certain substances to pass through.

Explanation:

The plasma membrane is preamble, hydrophobic molecules and small polar molecules diffuse through lipid layer. The integral membrane proteins enable large polar molecules to pass through the membrane.

Some molecules can cross the membrane like hydrocarbons and oxygen. Whereas the large molecules like glucose and sugars cannot cross. The water pass through lipid.
