Answer:

Geographical isolation

Explanation:

Geographical isolation may be defined as the separation of species due to the geographical barrier. This isolation prevents the species to reproduce from the original population and leads to speciation.

The founding population of lizard has arrived on an island. The lizard is geographically isolated from the main population. Hence, geographical isolation is responsible for the formation of new lizard species.

Thus, the correct answer is option 2.

Answer:

reduction in potential medicines

reduced food supply

Explanation:

The direct consequences of a decrease in angiosperm's biodiversity is a reduction in potential medicines and food supply.

Angiosperm biodiversity (the flowering plants) act as a source of food to several living organisms, including human. This is evident in the practice of farming by humans. Different categories of consumers in the ecosystem depends largely on flowering plants for their food either directly or indirectly.

They also serve as a source of medicine. For example, chloroquine which use to be the major drug against the treatment of malaria was extracted from a flowering plant known as <em>Chinchona pubescens.</em>

<em>Several species of flowering plants remains in the wild whose usefulness are yet to be researched. They represent a source of future food and medicine for man and animals.</em>

<em>Hence, if the diversity of flowering plants is reduced, it is going to have direct consequence of reduction in potential foods and medicine.</em>

A man has a pointed frontal hairline known as a widow's peak. This trait is thought to be controlled by a dominant allele. His w
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

a. His father's mother lacks a widow's peak.

Explanation:

To find out if you are homozygous or heterozygous, you need to find out the genotype of your parents. This you do by looking at their phenotype, their grandparents, uncles. After that it's easy to find out if it's homo or heterozygous. Of course, this need not even be done when it is a characteristic determined by recessive alleles, but in the case of a characteristic determined by dominant alleles, such as widow's peak (W), we must visualize the characteristic in the individual's country.

Since the man, shown in the question above, has widow's peak, so that your child knows if he is homozygous or heterozygous, just look at whether the trait is present in this man's parents. If his mother doesn't have widow's peak, we automatically know that the man is heterozygous, and that was his father's estate. However, if this man's mother has widow's peak and his father does, then the man is homozygous.
