When species are physically separated by a barrier and cannot mate
What is Geographical
True or False: The climate on Earth remains stable and constant.
What is FALSE
This must occur for speciation to happen.
What is Reproductive Isolation.
How a species gets variation.
What is sexual reproduction and mutation.
The carrier of our genetic information
What is DNA
When species use varying courting rituals preventing mating
What is Behavioral
Climate change can cause species to either increase in numbers, emergence of new species or ___________.
What is Extinction
When populations evolve separately without a physical barrier, but due to reproductive isolation.
What is Sympatric Speciation
What is the Galapagos Islands
What is happening when species changes color overtime to better blend into its environment
What is adapting
When differences in timing preventing mating
What is Temporal
Climate change causes species to either increase in numbers, go extinct or ___________.
What is emergence of new species
When populations are divided by a physical barrier, making it impossible to interbreed, and evolve separately.
What is Allopatric Speciation
When an entire species dies.
What is Extinction.
When there is a change in the DNA sequence, sometimes causing new traits
What is mutation
When species prefer different living environments preventing mating.
What is Ecological
If global warming caused increase forest fires and forced populations to separate, this would be an example of what kind of isolation barrier?
What is Geographic
The term to describe a group of organism that can breed and produce fertile offspring.
What is "Species"
Why most organisms on Earth use sexual reproduction and not cloning.
What is Variation.
Heritable trait that helps an organism survive and reproduce in it's environment
What is Adaptation
