The crabs are salt water organisms, so they'll have a higher concentration gradient than the distilled water. In other words, they're hypertonic to the distilled water. This will cause them to take on water and expand; their cells bursting.
The biome that exist closest to the Earth's poles are descibed as polar
OSTEOARTHRITIS,
OSTEOARTHROSIS, or
DEGENERATIVE ARTHRITIS
Phosphorus moves in a cycle through rocks, water, soil and sediments and organisms. Over time, rain and weathering cause rocks to release phosphate ions and other minerals. Once in the plant or animal, the phosphate is incorporated into organic molecules such as DNA. i hope this helped <3
Answer:
d. the groups will probably diverge genetically, and speciation may occur
Explanation:
The geographical isolation of two populations of a species for a longer time period leads to allopatric speciation. During the process, the isolated populations accumulate genetic variations to become adapted to the prevailing conditions of the habitat.
Accumulation of genetic variations leads to reproductive isolation between the population. After several generations, the individuals of the two isolated populations are unable to interbreed due to genetic variations. Now, these two populations are said to belong to two different species. The isolated lizard populations would also accumulate genetic variations resulting in allopatric speciation.
