Reprodutive Isolation
Reproductive isolation of species can occur in several ways, among these ways are behavioral isolation, geographic isolation, and temporal isolation.
• Behavioral Isolation, occurs when the behavior of individuals is not equal in behavior for reproduction, therefore, there is no mating of individuals.
• Geographic Isolation, occurs when there is a geographic barrier between the organisms that would reproduce. This geographic barrier could be a river, lake, or mountain.
,
• Temporal Isolation, occurs when the timing of organisms to reproduce with each other is different between the two animals. Therefore, this difference in reproductive time prevents reproduction.
Therefore, we can analyze the exercise and conclude that:
• Behavioral Isolation: when the bird is singing and your partner doesn't like it.
,
• Geographic Isolation: when there is a river between the two animals
,
• Temporal Isolation: when the plant wants to sleep instead of reproducing.
