evolution

the change in the heritable traits of biological populations over successive generations

2
New cards

2 scientists who proposed natural selection

charles darwin and alfred russell wallace

3
New cards

speciation

where one species splits into two or more separate species (can no longer interbreed)

occurs through variation(differences develop within a species over time due to selection pressures), isolation(groups in a population are physically prevented from interbreeding), and selection (natural selection causes changes to prevent breeding)

4
New cards

cycle of speciation

variation → isolation → selection → speciation
