Answer:
No, mutations do not all result in negative effects. Sometimes they can be beneficial, as they are completely random. It is our general tendency to think of the word "mutation" in negative terms; however, do not get confused. Mutations are the root/ultimate source of genetic variation; they are one of the main factors that allow populations to evolve.
Answer:
C. habitat isolation; temporal isolation; behavioral isolation; mechanical isolation; gamete isolation.
Explanation:
Reproductive Barriers may be of any type which includes habitat isolation; temporal isolation; behavioral isolation; mechanical isolation; gamete isolation. All these examples are categorized under prezygotic barriers.
Habitat isolation: It occurs in case of allopatric speciation, initially all the members of a species can mate with each other but later on due to geographic barriers like due to a rift, their habitat separates and they cannot mate with each other and later on they evolve as separate species.
Temporal isolation: In temporal isolation, reproductive barrier is different time/season of breeding like American toads and Fowler's toad both are closely related and have potential to mate but due to different mating season they are unable to mate with each other. American toads mate during summers while Fowler's toad mate during late summers.
Behavioral isolation: When the members of two closely related species behave and respond to different mating behavior, it is known as behavioral isolation. For example breeding calls.
Mechanical isolation: Mechanical isolation occurs because of structural or chemical barriers. For example: when the shape of pollinator does not match with that of flower then the male gametes will not be able to reach to the egg cell.
Gamete isolation: When the gametes are unable to fuse due to any reason like less mobility of sperm in the female reproductive tract.
Commensalism or Mutualism (most likely mutualism). The bacteria derives no harm and benefits from an environment to live and thrive, while the termite benefits from the bacteria breaking down its food.
Answer:
Are more dense
Explanation:
When salt dissolves in water (higher salinity), it becomes more dense
