Q

When somewhat isolated populations come into contact hybrid zones may form depending on the level of speration three outcomes can result: what are the different outcomes?
A) Reinforcing the barrier is _____ and wiill result in _ species
B) Fusion the barrier is ____ and weill result in _ species
C) Stability thebarrier is _____ amd will in _ species
D) When i first learned bird ID there was one species a northen Oriole that had two variants Baltimore orioles on the east coast and bullocks oriell on the west coause. THey interbred extensively in the midewerst. Scienteist reasoned that because of this hybridization in time the two kinds of orioles would blend into one single kind of oriole. Studies have shown that these hybrid traits didn’t leave the zone. Now, they are two seperate species. THis tutned out to be ____ hybrid zone

A

Strengthened 3
Closing 1
Stable 3
Stabalizing
