b) A population first divided into two parts, then three parts, and then four parts, until a description identifies a single member.
Hope it will help you ❤️
Where's the evolution?
The physics of light affects not just how blue water looks to us, but how the animals living in the world's oceans, lakes, and rivers are able to find food and each other — and this, in turn, can impact their evolution. Natural selection favors traits that perform well in local environmental conditions. Many fish species, for example, have evolved vision that is specifically tuned to see well in the sort of light available where they live. But even beyond simple adaptation, the physics of light can lead to speciation. In fact, biologists recently demonstrated that the light penetrating to different depths of Africa's Lake Victoria seems to have played a role in promoting a massive evolutionary radiation. More than 500 species of often brightly colored cichlid fish have evolved there in just a few hundred thousand years!
If they remain isolated for a long period of time, the two groups will probably diverge genetically, and may result in speciation.
Genetic divergence is the process whereby two groups of the same ancestral species acquire autonomous genetic changes through time, usually after the groups have been separated reproductively for some period of time.
Speciation is an evolutionary process whereby populations develop to become different species.
Answer:
The correct answer is option D. "1,200 years".
Explanation:
The giant sequoia (<em>Sequoiadendron giganteum</em>) are the most massive trees in the world, and the tallest is one sequoia called "General Sherman" with a height of 83.8 m. "General Sherman" is estimated to be 2,000 years old, and is estimated that a sequoia tree can live up to 3,500 years. Therefore, an 80-meter sequoia tree in the forest most likely will have more than 1,000 years.
The individual organisms that frame a population are additional or less equally spaced, spread every which way with no predictable pattern, or clustered in teams. These are called the uniform, random, and clumped dispersion patterns. Uniform refers to the evenly distributed population, random means random spacing and clumped shows the distribution in clusters.
Food supply and resources are directly proportional to a particular distribution pattern. Random distribution occurs when several pollen grains of some flowers were carried by wind or bees. These flowers will then bloom where they were scattered.
hope this um ... helps hehe ........
