Two species of insects from different geographic areas display characteristic black and red stripes. which of the following is unlikely to be related to this phenomenon? a) aposematic coloration b) convergent evolution c) common ancestry d) mimicry e) defense against a predator

D) mimicry

Explanation:

If we have two different species of insects that live in separate geographic areas but they display the same characteristic black and red stripes it can mean a lot, as there are numerous factors that can contribute to it. For starters, the two species might have a common ancestor that was exhibiting those same or similar black and red stripes, and if they did their job properly, there's every chance that both species would have kept them. It can be simply an aposematic coloration that developed in the same manner through convergent evolution as a protection or warning from the predators. We can not say that it is an example of mimicry, as the two species live in different geographic areas, thus they are not in contact with each other, thus they can not replicate the colors and behavior from the other species.

explanation:

plate tectonics and volcanic euptions

over time, plate tectonic processes cause continents to move to different positions on the globe.

for example, britain was near to the equator 300 million years ago, and therefore was hotter than it is today. for further details look at our climate through time poster or online map.

the movement of the plates also causes volcanoes and mountains to form and these too can contribute to a change in climate.

mountain ranges formed by plate tectonics. large mountain chains can influence the circulation of air around the globe, and consequently influence the climate.   warm air might be deflected somewhere cooler by the mountains.

idk what the options are but

these is a strong electrostatic attraction between the ions hence a lot of energy is needed to overcome this attraction

this is why the boiling points are so high
