Two populations that are separated by a mountain range can no longer interbreed to produce fertile offspring this is an example of what speciation?
This is an example of geographic isolation, a type of allopatric speciation where physical barriers prevent gene flow between populations, leading to the accumulation of genetic differences and eventually reproductive isolation.
What example is Two populations that are separated by a mountain range can no longer interbreed to produce fertile offspring.?
This is an example of geographic isolation, which occurs when physical barriers like mountain ranges prevent gene flow between populations, leading to reproductive isolation. Over time, genetic differences may accumulate due to separate evolutionary pressures, eventually leading to the formation of distinct species.
What is geographic isolation?
Geographic isolation refers to a barrier, such as a body of water or a mountain range, that physically separates two populations of a species. This isolation can lead to genetic divergence and eventually speciation as the separated populations evolve independently.
Does geographic isolation contribute to evolution-?
A geographic barrier eg mountain range, river, ocean, desert, can split a species into two populations which can no longer mix with each other. By splitting up a species into two separate populations a geographic barrier can lead to the formation of a new species. The two separate populations start to develop in isolation from each other. Different mutations will occur in the two populations and natural selection will adapt them to the slightly different conditions in the two areas. Given enough time the two populations will become so different that if they are brought together again they will no longer be able to interbreed ie they will have become two different species. This is called allopatric speciation.
What is the difference between geographic isolation and habitat differentiation?
Geographic isolation is when a population is separated by a river/canyon or some impassable terrain. Habitat isolation is when members of a population live in a different type of habitat, say some live in the forest at the bottom of the mountain, while others live further up the mountain. These would then become different populations and evolve to perhaps form two different species.

Two populations that are sperated by a mountain range can no longer interbreed to produce fertile offspring this is an example of?
This is an example of geographic isolation, where a physical barrier like a mountain range separates populations, preventing gene flow and leading to reproductive isolation. Over time, this can result in the populations evolving independently and potentially becoming distinct species.
List and describe the different types of genetic isolation?
geographic isolation- the physical separation of members of a population reproductive isolation- the inability of members of a population to successfully interbreed with members of another population of the same or related species information from MODERN BIOLOGY by HOLT, Rinehart and Winston

What does geopraphic isolation mean?
Geographic isolation refers to the physical separation of populations of a species by a barrier such as a mountain or body of water, preventing them from interbreeding. Over time, this isolation can lead to the evolution of distinct species due to the lack of gene flow between the separated populations.
what mountain system are separated by desert area?

What was the name of the mountain that separated Britain with the native Americans?
It was no mountain - it was the Atlantic Ocean that separated Great Britain from the Americas and all the indigenous people that lived there.
