Squirrels and other small mammals near Arizona's Grand Canyon are shown to have experienced speciation. Two populations of antelope squirrels that were originally a single species became separated by the canyon. Presently, these squirrel populations represent two different species: the white-tailed antelope squirrel inhabits the north side of Arizona's Grand Canyon, and the closely related Harris's antelope squirrel can be found on the south side of the canyon. Which statement BEST explains why the antelope squirrels experienced speciation?

A
The squirrels on each side of the canyon were no longer able to access food at the bottom of the canyon.

B
The squirrels on each side of the canyon were no longer able to access water at the bottom of the canyon.

C
The squirrels on each side of the canyon were no longer able to breed with the squirrels on the other side of the canyon.

D
The squirrels on each side of the canyon were no longer able to communicate with the squirrels on the other side of the canyon.

How do temperature and salinity affect deepwater currents? question 15 options: as temperatures and salinity levels of water increase, the water rises to the surface where it creates currents as it moves to colder regions. they create changes in wind direction, moving denser water in the same direction as the wind and causing the deepwater circulation patterns found in the ocean. they equalize the forces on undersea currents caused by the coriolis effect as they replace more dense water with less dense water. they create density differences that cause dense deepwater currents to flow toward the equator where they displace less dense, warmer water above them.
