The following options are all reproductive barriers. Which one is an example of a prezygotic barrier in which the two different

species do mate? View Available Hint(s) The following options are all reproductive barriers. Which one is an example of a prezygotic barrier in which the two different species do mate? Two dragonfly species regularly mate, but their gametes are incompatible. One bird species lives in wetlands, the other in dry forests; hence, they do not encounter each other. Hybrid mules produced by mating donkeys and horses are sterile. Two crayfish species cannot interbreed because their genitalia do not engage properly with each other.

The correct option is this: TWO DRAGONFLY SPECIES REGULARLY MATE BUT THEIR GAMETES ARE INCOMPATIBLE.

In biology, there are different types of reproductive barriers, one of these is prezygotic barrier. A prezygotic barrier is a kind of mechanism that prevent reproduction from occurring by blocking fertilization. In this case, the concerned species will be mating together, but their gametes will not be compatible and thus, zygote will not be formed.

A postzygotic barrier on the other hand is said to occur when the reproduction process is blocked after the formation of zygote or after fertilization has taken place. A good example of this is an hybrid mule that is sterile and can not reproduce.

1. Describe DDT and summarize the history of the use and banning of DDT, including actions taken by the U.S. government. State t
igomit [66]

DDT stands for  dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethane. The first kind of synthetic/artificial insecticides came into use in the 1940s. The earlier usage of DDT include:  a) Killing of malarial vectors, b) Combatting Typhus and other insect borne human diseases, c) As a pest control in crops d) as a pest control in garden, live stock production and even at homes.  

The negative impact of DDT could be felt for the first time when the pests that were earlier killed by use of DDT have now become pesticides resistant. In the 1950s in USA, the regulatory measures were adopted to reduce the usage of DDTs as its effects as a pesticides were no more long significant and also it was creating detrimental physical and psychological impacts on the human and environment.

It was in 1972 that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency cancelled the order for banning the usage of DDT based on the adverse impact it produced on the environment, human and other life forms. Since then continuous studies are being conducted to analyse the impact of DDTs. In some later years it was established that DDT is the cause of producing tumors in liver.  

Some of the common negative impacts produced by DDT as per the U.S. Department of Agriculture :  

a) The non destructive nature – DDT can not be destroyed and thus it remains persistent in the atmosphere

b) It attacks the tissues of living organisms especially the animals and humans  ( fatty tissue)

c) It can penetrate the atmosphere to deeper extent.

Now as per the current stuation, The use of DDT is controlled and other alternatives of pest control organisms is being deduced. As per the treaty of Stockholm Convention on POPs (Persistent organic pollutants) , usage of DDT for malarial control is justified but it puts a restrictive use of DDT as pesticides in other areas.

(c) find the longest interval during which no tree-cutting samples occurred. what is the first year that no tree-cutting samples
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Longest interval during which no tree-cutting sample occurred: 9 years (1203 AD - 1212 AD)

First year in that interval: 1203 AD

Explanation:

Lets complete the question first.

Q) A study uses tree rings to determine the year in which a tree was cut. The data is shown in the leaf and stem diagram in the ATTACHMENT.

The three digits number in the left column represents centuries and decades AD. The numbers on the right represents the years.

For example, consider the first input in the diagram

119 | 5   6

which means it represents 2 samples.

1195 AD, 1196 AD.

The longest interval with no tree-cutting samples is found from 1203 AD to 1212 AD.
