different and morphology

Evolution (via natural selection) that leads to reproductive isolation

Natural Selection Observation 1 - answerMembers of a population vary in their inherited

Sympatric Speciation - answersubset of population acquires differences

What does speciation happen through? - answerit happens through polyploidy

Polyploidy - answercondition where organism have more than two paired sets of
chromosomes

Autopolyploidy - answerone species involved in generating a polyploid

Allopolyploidy - answertwo species involved in generating polyploid

Type of Reproductive Isolation - answerPre-zygotic and post-zygotic isolation

pre-zygotic isolation - answermechanisms that prevent mating or hinger fertilization
before mating occurs

post-zygotic isolation - answermechanisms that prevent a hybrid zygote from
developing into a viable, fertile adult (acting after mating occurs)

Type of Pre-Zygotic isolation - answerhabitat, temporal, behavioral, mechanical,

habitat isolation - answerspecies occupy different habitats, never come into contact
