Why are vestigial structures not removed by natural selection

Vestigial structures do not harm the organism. Nature selects against only harmful traits.

How does reducing gene flow cause speciation

It allows divergence to occur

It allows populations to become genetically different.

Which animal adaptation happened before the others
bilateral symmetry

Tissue development

Development of a coelom

How can islation lead to formation of new species

Allopatric Speciation (geographic isolation) can lead to the formation of a new species because the population is split in two smaller populations by a physical barrier (river, canyon, mountain...).

A scientist helps a colleague do a better experiment by

offering advice about how best to perform a standard procedure -apex

A database is an efficient way to share information because it

can be searched quickly for the most relevant observations.

Which best describes adaptive radiation

Biodiversity resulting from few ancestors.
