new species can arise when populations are isolated
DESCRIPTION
New species can arise when populations are isolated. Populations become isolated when there is no gene flow. Isolated populations adapt to their own environments. Genetic differences can add up over generations. Speciation - the rise of two or more species from one existing species. - PowerPoint PPT PresentationTRANSCRIPT

11.5 Speciation Through Isolation
Populations become isolated when there is no gene flow. – Isolated populations adapt to their own environments.– Genetic differences can add up over generations.

11.5 Speciation Through Isolation
Speciation - the rise of two or more species from one existing species.

11.5 Speciation Through Isolation
Geographic Isolation- physical barriers divide population and prevent mating.

11.5 Speciation Through Isolation
Behavioral Isolation- differences in courtship or mating behaviors and prevent mating.

11.5 Speciation Through Isolation
Temporal Isolation- timing of reproductive periods prevents mating.

11.5 Speciation Through Isolation
Reproductive Isolation- members of different populations cannot mate successfully.
