Answer:

Option B and C

Explanation:

The temperature and pressure causes foliation in metamorphic rock. When a rock is subject to extreme conditions, its mineral realigns itself in perpendicular direction of stress application. Foliation causes weakling of rock in a specific plane of the rock and due to this metamorphic rock break easily along the foliation planes.

As the rate of metamorphism (application of pressure and temperature) increases, the coarseness caused due to foliation also increase.  

Hence, both option  B and C are correct.

Tomtit [17]

If the forest on the hill is cleared, than the soil will lose its natural cover and protection from erosion. The soil will become much more exposed to the erosion, and its top layers will be moved away relatively easy and quickly. Those layers will move downwards, and practically will end up into the river that passes beside the hill. With a significant increase of sediments getting into the river, the river will start to deposit much more material. Also, the sediments will make a problem when there's heavy rainfall because the river will be able to get out of its river bad more easily and cause a flood. The water of the river will also became murkier, muddier, which will make it dark yellowish/light brownish in appearance when there will be rainfall.

What might account for the unusual results you obtained in the experiment in Part C? Select the two correct answers. Select the
irakobra [83]

Answer:

The correct options are B "The unusual F1 female is heterozygous for a reciprocal balanced translocation involving the chromosome with the apricot, bristle and clipped loci" and D "Independent assortment of non-compatible chromosome structures (i.e., translocated and normal chromosomes segregating together) in the F1 female led to the 90 eggs that aborted development"

Explanation:

The unexpected results obtained earlier can be attributed to the two factors listed above. At the time when meisois takes place, there is the process of independent assortment which leads to formation of zygotes. Due to the event of translocation, the eggs produced lacked some critical development genes.

Stella [2.4K]

Answer/Explanation:

Types of reproductive isolation include: temporal, ecological, mechanical, and behavioural.

A snail with a flat disc-like shell will not be able to mate with a snail having a conical shell - this is an example of mechanical isolation, where the animals are physically unable to mate due to incompatible body shapes and sizes.

The reproductive organs of male bush babies do not match with the reproductive organs of females of other bush baby species. - this is another example of mechanical isolation, as the sexual organs will physically not allow reproduction between these species

The mating call of a cricket is not recognized by a cricket of other species - this is an example of behavioural isolation, which results from incompatible mating rituals. I.e. the animals do not respond to each others mating behaviours

The signals sent by a male firefly are not recognized by the female firefly of other species. - this is also an example of behavioural isolation.

Temporal isolation is where species cannot interact because they do not have the same mating seasons or are not active at the same type of day. ?Ecological isolation occurs when two species do not come into physical contact to one another because they access different areas of the habitat. E.g. mating zones, food sources or nesting sites.
