Does convergent evolution result in speciation?

All evolution that results in increasing genetic divergence between subpopulations may result in speciation. That includes convergent evolution: convergence occurs at the phenotypical level, not at the genetic level.


A change in the genetic material that produces variation in a species may be the result of?

immigration, mutation and sexual reproduction.


Can changes in the behavior of an organism can result in speciation?

it is TRUE!!


What is often a result of evolution?

Adaptation, divergence and speciation.


What kind of selection can result in speciation?

Natural selection seems to be the only selection that can drive speciation with powerful adaptive change. Sexual selection seems to stay within the species and both gene flow and genetic drift do not seem to drive speciation very well.


Divergence may lead to what?

speciation


What is the difference between divergence and speciation?

Divergent speciation refers to the rise of a new species when organisms that can interbreed and reproduce fertile offspring get separated. Separation can be due to geographical barriers like mountains and lakes.

Is it true that species that exist at the same time are the net result of speciation and mutation?

No

What is the biological term when new species form as a result of geogical isolation?

Alopatric speciation.


What are the two phases of speciation?

The two phases of speciation are allopatric speciation and sympatric speciation. Allopatric speciation occurs when populations are geographically isolated, leading to genetic divergence due to natural selection, mutation, and genetic drift. In contrast, sympatric speciation happens within the same geographic area, often through mechanisms such as polyploidy in plants or behavioral changes in animals that reduce gene flow. Both processes ultimately result in the formation of new species.
