If one animal has a mutation and breeds with another animal then a new species may arise. The gene of the mutation may be carried down in the babies.

How is sympatric similar to allopatric speciation?
They both are mechanisms by which new species arise grad point
How do new specie arise?
Because new species have to adapt to their newly acquired surroundings.
Most polyploid species arise from?
Aliens .... They come in UFO's and arise new polyploid species.
How can new patterns of DNA arise in nature?
Easy- Mutation! Source: Bio Major
What is the creation of a new species called?
AnswerThe creation of a new species is the evolution of a new species. The process by which new species arise is called speciation.
What would happen if the rate of mutation slowed down?
Fewer new variations would arise.
The formation of a new species can result from what?
Mutation, isolation and natural selection. Google allopatric speciation.
What happens if mutation stops?
New species will not be able to present themselves.
Compare and contrast allopatric and sympatric speication?
Allopatric and sympatric speciation are both methods by which new species arise. However, allopatric speciation is when species interbreed. Sympatric speciation is when several new species arise from a common ancestor.
Can mutation allow a virus to cross into a new species?
Rather more easily than mutations in your genome! A virus which may have only a few hundred genes can have large changes in function from just one mutation and can be then accounted a new "species " as progeny inherit the mutation. ( as much as one counts viruses as species )
What is the major source of new alleles in natural populations?
either new organisms entered the population from an external source, or there were mutations
What can be gained by species mating with other closely associated species bringing new genes into their own population from the others?
mutation
