Answer:

Postzygotic reproductive barriers

Explanation:

Individuals from two different species of goby fish will mate to produce a hetrozygote zygote which is unable to build the nest.

This happens because the gene pools of the two types of goby fish remained isolated prezygotically

Problems arising because of formation of hybrid zygote  is known as postzygotic reproductive barriers. This inability leads to reduced ability of survival and reproduction which if persists for long could result into infertility of hybrid species.

A biologist marked 200 mice, by putting leg bands on them, out of a forest containing an unknown number of mice. The marked mice
Fofino [41]

Answer: The estimated population is 1250 mice

Explanation: The method use was marked and recapture, in which individuals are marked in the first capture and after some time biologist trap a new group of individuals that can be or not marked

Whit this data is possible to estimate the size of a population applying the Peterson method but is important to make some considerations such as:

1. All indivuals have the same probability to be capture

2, The population remain constant in terms of birth and death rate.

Taking this into account, the formula that allows to determine the size of the population is:

N=CM / R  

where N is the size of the population, C is number of indivuals trapped in recapture, M is number of individuals marked in the first capture and R is the number of marked animals trapped in recapture

In this case:

N = 250 * 200 / 40 = 1250

g100num [7]
The vegetation type is called STEPPE. Steppe refers to the vegetation type in which there are only grassland plains; no trees exist in this eco-region. The countries of the world where this type of vegetation can be found include Russia, Ukraine, Hungary, etc. The steppe biome is a cold, dry grassland that exist in all the continents of the world except in Australia and Antarctica. Humidity level is usually very low in this biome because they are usually located far away from the ocean.

The most common form of genetic disorder that causes the fetus to spontaneously abort involves _____.​
Tomtit [17]
<span>An incorrect number of chromosomes is the most common form of genetic disorder that causes the fetus to spontaneously abort. </span>The human cells normally contain 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes in each cell. Error in one or more of the meiosis, mitosis, maternal age, or environment are the possible cause of the chromosome abnormalities. These abnormalities in the number chromosomes can cause problems with development, growth and function of the body's systems. These changes can occur in early fetal development, or in any cell after birth during the formation of reproductive cells (sperm and eggs).

The ability of one or more organisms in a population to tolerate a chemical such as a pesticide or antibiotic designed to kill i
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is- Resistance

Explanation:

The ability of any organism in a population to tolerate a chemical like insecticide, pesticide or antibiotic which is designed to kill it or slow its reproduction is called resistance.

For example, the antibiotic resistance is seen in some bacteria like MRSA(Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus). They gain this resistance because they have some variant traits in their genome which provide them resistance against these chemicals.  

These individual are selected through natural selection when the environmental condition changes and become adverse. So the correct answer is resistance.
