Question Detail
Question
Which of the following is most important for speciation? a. reproductive isolation b. seasonal isolation c. natural selection d. behavioural isolation
Correct Answer
Option A is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Speciation, the formation of new species, requires populations to become reproductively isolated. This means they can no longer interbreed and produce fertile offspring. Seasonal, behavioral, and other isolations are types of reproductive isolation mechanisms.
Hint
The key is preventing gene flow between populations.
