Which of the following is an example of reproductive isolation? two populations of finches that cannot produce viable offspring
two populations of finches that have different feather colors two populations of salamanders that live in different lakes two populations of salamanders that have different tail lengths
The correct answer is A. Two populations of finches that cannot produce viable offspring
Explanation:
Reproductive isolation is a biological and evolutionary phenomenon that prevents two species from successfully reproducing, this means they cannot produce offspring or the offspring is not fertile, even if these species had a common ancestor. Additionally, as a result of reproductive isolation, each species keeps its genes and features. This phenomenon is best exemplified in "Two populations of finches that cannot produce viable offspring " because this refer to the barriers for different species to reproduce or produce viable offspring, which is the focus of reproductive isolation.
