This term is helpful in defining species, those pairs of individuals whose mating doe snot result in a
hybrid or new species meet this aspect of species definition
Speciation

reproductive barriers
Reproductive isolation
This term refers to the inheritance of traits that give an organism a selective advantage to reach the age
of reproduction
Speciation

Natural Selection
An exam of this event is the building of a road in the middle of a population preventing the exchange of
genetic information between member on either side of the road

An example of this event is the birth of a healthy hybrid with a selective advantage to reach
reproductive age
