"Consider the reproductive isolating mechanisms described above. Do any of these apply to human beings? Write a few paragraphs in your notebook on this topic". this is my assignment, but i can't find it anywhere!! please help me!
Additional Details • HABITAT ISOLATION occurs when two species occupy different habitats, even within the same geographic range, so that they are less likely to meet and to attempt to reproduce. • TEMPORAL ISOLATION occurs when two species live in the same location, but each reproduces at a different time of the year, preventing a successful
Reproductive isolating mechanisms are barriers which impeded mating (prezygotic) or prevent the hybrid from developing properly (postzygotic) but the overall effect is to cause speciation by making it difficult for two diverging species to share genes. With this in mind, do you see any strong factors causing such speciation in humans? Most of the barriers do not apply to humans, as far as I can tell. Consider the role of technology and transportation when you're considering more plausible barriers such as habitat isolation.
