Definition
a group of individuals that interbreeds in nature. a species is the biggest gene pool possible under natural conditions. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| All of the genes in a population. Any genes that could wind up in the same individual through sexual reproduction are in the same gene pool. |

|
Term
|
Definition
geographic isolation- a physical barrier like a river that separates two or more groups of organisms or an unfavorable habitat between the two populations that keeps them from mating with one another. reduction of gene flow- a population extends over a broad geographic range, and mating throughout the population is not random |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Speciation that depends on an external barrier to gene flow (such as geographic isolation) to begin or complete the process of speciation. |
