A population of animals is split in half by a river. Before speciation is completed, the two halves are rejoined when a drought

causes the river to run dry. How would this impact the two populations?
A. Traits that had developed through mutation would still exist in only one of the halves
B. Speciation would still occur because the two halves would be too different genetically to interbreed
C. The two halves would be reproductively isolated
D. Gene flow would increase between the two halves, and speciation would not occur

Answer: D. Gene flow would increase between the two halves, and speciation would not occur

Explanation:

Speciation is a phenomena of evolution of a new species from the existing parent species. This occurs when the population of the species gets separated due to geographical barrier, behavioral and due to temporal isolation (having distinct mating seasons). The members of the separated populations may undergo with genetic variations and mutations which may likely to produce a new species.

According to the given situation, if the split halves rejoined then speciation would not occur because speciation requires time for genetic variations and mutations to occur. As, a result of rejoining of the two halves the gene flow will occur due to inbreeding and speciation would not occur.

Use the drop-down menus to answer questions about bacteria. Since bacteria are prokaryotes, they have no The outside of a bacter
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Since bacteria are prokaryotes, they have no nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. The outside of a bacterial cell is protected by a structure called a capsule. The cell wall provides a rigid structure that gives the cell its shape. The cell membrane helps to transport ions, nutrients, and waste. The plasmids allow DNA to be transferred from one bacterium to another.

<em>The bacteria are microscopic organisms that are generally classified as prokaryotes. The prokaryotes lack nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles, unlike the eukaryotes. The bacteria cells are enclosed in a protective structure known as the capsule. Immediately after the capsule is the cell wall whose components vary depending on whether the bacteria is Gram-positive or negative. </em>

<em>Towards the innermost part of the cell, after the cell wall is the cell membrane. It acts as a channel for the transport of materials in and out of the cell. Some bacteria cells have short, circular, extrachromosomal DNA known as plasmids which can be transferred from one cell to another.</em>

Vegetation type of drought-resistant grasses also refers to a very dry climate, characteristic of southern russia, ukraine, and
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.
