Answer:
The answer to the raisin question is B. When a raisin is put in water, the water passes through the semipermeable membrane and causes it to swell.
You didn't put the question for the second set of answers though, if you tell me the question I'll gladly answer it for you. :)
Alpine tundra occurs in mountains worldwide. The flora of the alpine tundra is characterized by dwarf shrubs close to the ground.
Hi!
The ancestral finch founded a new population on one of the Hawaiian Islands. Due to the founder effect , allele frequencies of the first small population on one of the islands could have differed from their continental goldfinch-like ancestors. The process of natural selection resulted in adaptation and evolution of the island population into a new species over time. Some of the birds crossed to some of the other islands where they were geographically isolated and evolved into more species occupying different niches.
In terms of population genetics, founder effect is when there is a loss of genetic diversity as a result of the establishment of a new population by a relatively few individuals. Following such an establishment, natural selection is the process which results in the genes of the fittest individuals of the population being selected over generations. This process ultimately results in evolution, and over time may give rise to new species. Geographical isolation is the physical separation of a population from another owing to geographical changes in the terrain or area. If two populations of the same species are geographically isolated, there is a great chance over time they may evolve into two different species.
Hope this helps!
A conversational plan with two habitat preserves, measuring a total of 20 square kilometers combined will preserve more species because this cause segregation of species based on their adaptability towards a safer and secure environment. For example if a lion and deer try to live in the same conservation area, then it’s obvious that the life of deer is always at risk. But in cases of segregated preserved areas both herbivorous and carnivorous animals can live separately. Also if there is special inclination of one species towards other then also these two species can live separately.
Segregation also enhances the diversity in the sense that it could lead to a new ecosystem with a new ecological balance within it. Conservation biologists focus on these areas as they claim that where the greatest number of unique species can be found and protected with in the large number of reserve areas with the least amount of effort
