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
reproduction isolation
natural selection
reproductive barriers - answer- Reproductive isolation
This term refers to the inheritance of traits that give an organism a selective advantage to reach
the age of reproduction
Speciation
reproduction isolation
,natural selection
reproductive barriers - answer- 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
Speciation
reproduction isolation
natural selection
reproductive barriers - answer- reproductive barriers
An example of this event is the birth of a healthy hybrid with a selective advantage to reach
reproductive age
