Individual flowers of a certain species vary in the time when they bloom. Flowers that bloom too early or too late might not be in bloom when the insects they depend on for reproduction are most active. The table provided shows how over many years the peak active time of these insects changed.

The tasmanian devil, a marsupial carnivore, is facing extinction due to devil facial tumor disease (dftd) which causes bulging cancerous lumps and lesions to erupt around the face and neck — often causing enough deformation to make seeing or eating difficult. dftd has evolved into a contagious cancer, a trait that is unique among cancers. devil mating behavior involves biting around the head and neck, allowing cells from one individual — especially cells from the crumbly dftd tumors — to be transferred to the wounds or face of a new individual. this marsupial was once found across australia, but sea levels rose, isolating the tasmanian population, while the australian population went extinct. what would be an outcome of genetic isolation that is likely to have impacted the spread of dftd? a) reduced territory puts diseased individuals in greater contact with non-diseased ones. b) inbreeding results in less variation in facial features so the cancer is generally fatal. c) genetic isolation has made it difficult for scientists to develop a vaccine against dftd. d) the lack of genetic variation in the immune system of tasmanian devils minimizes resistance to the disease.

Which of the following is a difference between active transport and facilitated diffusion? view available hint(s)which of the following is a difference between active transport and facilitated diffusion? facilitated diffusion can move solutes against a concentration gradient, and active transport cannot.active transport involves transport proteins, and facilitated diffusion does not.facilitated diffusion involves transport proteins, and active transport does not.active transport requires the expenditure of cellular energy, and facilitated diffusion does not.
