Geographic and behavioral
Allele Patrick and Sympathetic
In allopatric speciation there is a _______________
Geographical barrier that separates populations
genetic variance
different species
same area for populations
In Sympatric speciation _________________
Geographical barrier separates populations
genetic variance rules

All the above
Behavioral isolation
Geographic isolation
Temporal isolation
*What is the current hypothesis about Galapagos finch speciation?
Speciation in Galápagos finches occurred by the founding of a new population, geographic isolation, changes in the new population’s gene pool, behavioral isolation, and ecological competition.
Speciation in Galápagos finches can develop in several ways, including behavioral isolation, geographic isolation, and temporal isolation.
