Your answer is speciation
If two populations of the same species no longer interbreed then their differences will start to become more pronounced and eventually they will become so different that they will be classified as two different sub-species.
On my worksheet for biology the possible answers for that exact question areinfertilityextinctionisolationselection.hope that narrows it down_____________________________The answer is: isolation.
To put it simply, new species can form when organisms within a population become so genetically different they can no longer reproduce with one another without generating harmful mutations. This can be caused by genetic drift and geographic isolation. Two populations of the same species who live in different parts of the world will diverge and go on separate genetic paths, until eventually the two populations become genetically different and branch off into two different species.
Once species have truly become distinct, members of the two species are no longer able to successfully breed with each other and produce fully viable offspring. This may be as little as a physical separation that prevents contact (e.g. new mountain ranges, isolation on islands), to changes in pheromones that individuals produce so that individuals of the two species are no longer attracted cross species even if they encounter each other, to as much as the development of complete genetic incompatibility (e.g. different numbers of chromosomes in the two species).
The population has evolved into two separate species if the species in question no longer interbreed.
Two populations have evolved into two different species when they can no longer interbreed to produce viable offspring. This is known as reproductive isolation, where genetic differences accumulate over time, leading to the development of separate species.
The origin of new species. To be considered a member of a singe species, organisms must be capable of reproducing and producing viable offspring. Once they have evolved to become reproductively isolated, they can no longer fulfill these requirements and are considered separate species.
mutualism but if it become persistent then it becomes symbiosis
In other words, one species becomes two or species. Most commonly, speciation happens when populations of species are geographically divided so they no longer interbreed, or breed with each other. ... The larvae mature, and the adult fruit flies breed, producing a new generation of fruit flies on the island.
Two populations have evolved into two species when the populations can no longer interbreed.Are you answering a question from the Holt Science & Technology: Life Science textbook? Because these questions are my homework. :P
