Three types of isolation involve mating; habitat isolation, mechanical isolation, or sexual isolation.
Habitat isolation is a type of reproductive isolation where two species do not interbreed because they occupy different habitats within the same area. This prevents individuals from coming into contact with members of the other species, and therefore they do not have the opportunity to mate and produce offspring. Over time, habitat isolation can lead to the evolution of distinct species.
an example of a habitat is people or habitat is our home!
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.

Example sentence - The isolation in the quiet meadow was pleasant compared to the noise in the city.
Prisoners used to be punished by isolation with being put in the "hole" for 30 days.Prolonged isolation affects mental and emotional well-being.Children subjected to isolation develop severe social problems.
there are six types which are below: 1. geographical isolation 2. ecological (habitat) isolation 3. behavioral (ethological) isolation 4. temporal isolation 5. structural (mechanical) isolation 6. gamete mortality (gamete isolation)
According toTHE END OF THE SEGREGATED CENTURY: Racial Separation in America's Neighborhoods, 1890-2010 by Edward Glaeser and Jacob Vigdor,The isolation index is designed to distinguish this sort of scenario from one where neighborhoods have dramatically different racial character. It measures the tendency for members of one group to live in neighborhoods where their share of the population is above the citywide average. In this hypothetical example, black residents live in a neighborhood that is 2 percent black, which is just 1 percentage point higher than what would be expected under perfect integration. The isolation index would therefore be on the order of 1 percent, rather than 50 percent.
Isolation in the Australasian ecozone has led to the development of unique and diverse plant and animal species found nowhere else in the world. Many species have evolved in isolation and have adapted to the specific environmental conditions of the region. However, this isolation also makes these species more vulnerable to threats such as habitat loss, invasive species, and climate change.
