    TUTORIAL 9 – SPECIES

    EVOLUTION
    Done by:
    Tanika Edwards
    Otavia Chapman
    Outline the four forms of speciation
    recognized by science
    • Allopatric Speciation: Geographic isolation leads to reproductive isolation
    and the formation of distinct species due to separate evolutionary
    pressures.
    Continuation
    • Sympatric Speciation: New species arise without geographical isolation,
    with reproductive isolation occurring within the same area due to factors
    like niche differentiation or disruptive selection.
    Continuation
    • Parapatric Speciation: Adjacent populations are separated by extreme
    habitat changes within the same area, limiting gene flow and leading to
    the evolution of distinct species adapted to different ecological niches.
    Continuation
    • Peripatric Speciation: A small group becomes isolated from a larger
    population, often on the periphery of the species' range, facing different
    environmental conditions and selective pressures, leading to the formation
    of a new species.
