Fossil evidence suggests that a number of members of one fish species from an ancient lake in Death Valley, California, became several isolated species. Each of these new species lived in a different pond. What best explains the cause of this speciation?Geographic isolation

Geographic isolation

Explanation:

Geographic isolation -

It is considered to be the method by which the group of some specific living organisms gets isolated from rest of the organisms , which disables the species from sharing any genetic information , is referred to as geographic isolation .

The process of geographic isolation can be due to any accident or any coincidence .

Hence , from the given scenario of the question ,

The correct term  is geographic isolation .

The correct term  is geographic isolation on edg.

Explanation:

parasites can detrimentally affect their host, but also must not allow their host to die before they can complete their life cycle. some parasites have complex life cycles with many different hosts, and have had to find ways of persisting in many different environments during the change from one host to another. ectoparasites live outside the body of the host, and can more easily  disperse, but are  more exposed to predators, parasites, parasitoids. endoparasites live inside the body of the host, and are therefore protected from the outside environment. but they can be  attacked by the host's immune system. they have therefore developed  mechanisms for dispersal such as  complex life cycles.

the answer is d (apex) good luck : ))
