Question
which of the following is a result of the geographic isolation of the islands in the australasia ecozone?
a. variable weather
b. heavy trade routes
c. unique plants and animals
d. conflicts between aboriginal groups
Geographic isolation often leads to unique evolutionary paths. When islands are isolated, species can evolve separately from the mainland. This can result in unique plants and animals as there is limited gene flow with other populations. Variable weather (A) is more related to climate patterns. Heavy trade routes (B) would imply connection, not isolation. Conflicts between aboriginal groups (D) are social - cultural and not a direct result of geographic isolation in terms of biological diversity.
