A) it represents a distinct twig in a phylogeny of populations Prezygotic isolation barriers can be temporal, behavioural, geographic / ecological or mechanical B) it is reproductively isolated from other species

C) it has distinctive characteristics, such as size, shape, or coloration
D) it is a fossil from a distinct time in earth history.
Prezygotic mechanisms, such as temporal, habitat, behavioral, mechanical, and gametic isolation, prevent fertilization, while postzygotic mechanisms, such as hybrid inviability, sterility, and breakdown, act after fertilization to reduce hybrid viability or fertility. We shall examine prezygotic isolation, postzygotic isolation, and the role of genetics in reproductive isolation as well as other mechanisms of reproductive isolation in this article. Scientists classify reproductive isolation in two groups Prezygotic barriers and postzygotic barriers
Recall that a zygote is a fertilized egg The first cell of the development of an organism that reproduces sexually. Prezygotic isolation mechanisms, including mechanical, temporal, behavioral, habitat, and gametic, prevent fertilization and encourage new species. Temporal, behavioral, mechanical, gametic, and habitat isolation.
Reproductive isolating mechanisms are biological processes that prevent interbreeding between distinct species, thereby facilitating the formation of new species
First introduced by theodosius dobzhansky in 1937, these mechanisms can be categorized into two main types There are five types of isolation that biologically prevent species that might otherwise interbreed to produce hybrid offspring These are ecological, temporal, behavioral, mechanical/chemical and geographical. A reproductive isolating mechanism (rim) is any factor that stops members of populations of the same species or members of different species from breeding together
It acts as a barrier to gene flow.
