(8.7) Flashcards
Species
Group of interbreeding offspring which produce fertile offspring
Geographical isolation
Physical barrier (ocean/river) prevents population breeding with each other
Geographical Isolation (5)
1) species x occupy forest & breed
2) Climate change = reduce size of forest 2 separate regions
3) Forest A) - becomes colder & wetter Forest B) - warmer and drier
Group X1 in A // Group X2 in B
4) phenotypes are selected in each respective forest which are better adapted to condition
5) Forest A: Species Y & Forest B: Species Z
6) In capable of breeding again! 2 sep species
Speciation
Evolution of new species from existing species (result of 2 species being separated // isolated)
