In which of the following situations would speciation be most likely to occur?
◦ Bighorn sheep occupy mountains from Canada to Death Valley in Southern California, interbreeding all the way. The populations at the two ends of the range live in very different environments.
◦ A Japanese mollusk species whose larvae are often carried from port to port in ship bilge (waste) water now flourishes in San Francisco Bay, a busy commercial port.
◦ Seven monkeys escape from an enclosure. To everyone's surprise, they establish a small but viable population, coexisting successfully with humans in a partly suburban environment very different from their native African habitat.
◦ A population of juniper shrubs is split in two by a canyon. Every year, strong winds carry a small amount of the shrubs' pollen across the canyon.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
