New cards

what is allopateric speciation?

populations separated by physical barriers > 2+ distinct species

2
New cards

what causes allopateric speciation?

geographical isolation

3
New cards

what are some examples of geographic isolation in allopateric speciation? (3)

mountain ranges, rivers, man made structures

4
New cards

what is sympatric speciation?

forming new species without physical barriers

5
New cards

in other words, sympatic speciation is like…

band kids and football kids sit in groups

6
New cards

what causes sympatric speciation? (2)

sexual selection, disruptive selection

7
New cards

how does allopatric speciation lead to rformation of new species?

genetic/phenotype differences between populations increase > reproductive isolation > new species forms

8
New cards

how does sympatric speciation lead to rformation of new species?

prefrences > repoductive isolation > new species forms
