Reproductive isolation: a decline in interbreeding frequency between two segments of the ancestral population.
For a population to diverge, there needs to be barriers preventing gene flow between different groups within the population. This could result from physical barriers, such as mountains or rivers, or behavioral barriers, such as differences in mating preferences. Over time, genetic differences can accumulate between the populations, leading to divergence.
mating must happen randomly
For a population to grow, the birth rate must exceed the death rate, there must be enough resources available to support the increase in population, and factors that limit growth such as disease or predation must be controlled.
For natural selection to occur, there must be genetic variation present in a population, some of which is heritable. This variation must lead to differences in survival and reproduction (differential fitness). Individuals with advantageous traits must pass those traits on to their offspring. Over time, these advantageous traits become more common in the population.
Individuals with the beneficial trait must survive and reproduce at a higher rate than those without the trait. This differential reproductive success leads to an increase in the frequency of the advantageous trait in the population over time, allowing for evolution to occur.

A population must be isolated in some way
mating must happen randomly
A genetic mutation within the population.
For speciation to occur, one population must diverge genetically from another. Divergence is very difficult if the two populations exchange genes readily between them. A short rule of thumb to remember is:Populations which exchange genes are more alike genetically than those that don't.This means, in order to diverge genetically from one another, there must be some barriers, or reproductive isolation, to gene flow between them. When there are these barrier to gene flow, each population can accumulate different mutations and combinations of alleles independently of the other, thus diverging genetically.
No disruptive circumstances must be present in random mating in a population for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium to occur. Mating must happen randomly. No allele can give an advantage
i do not no sorry

natural selection or genetic drift
Without variation there is nothing to select from.
Mutation cannot occur. Apex
