Answer:
The correct answer is ecological isolation.
Explanation:
The condition when two species in spite of living in the same region, exhibits certain characteristics, which inhibits them from mating with each other is termed as reproductive isolation. The obstructions or the causes that prevent them from interbreeding is known as isolating mechanisms.
The given case is an example of ecological isolation and is one of the forms of reproductive isolation. Habitat or ecological isolation refers to the phenomenon in which two species cannot mate with each other as they thrive in two distinct locations. Like as mentioned, two species of garter snakes though coming from the same geographical area cannot interbreed, as one of them is living in the land and the other one in the water.
It is replicable because all the other answers are based on an individual’s opinion, not science.

Cornelius Agrippa (1486-1535) was a German mystic who practiced a "science" that combined alchemy, magic, mysticism, and astrology. Two of his books are Three Books of Occult Philosophy and On Calling Spirits. Through the writing of Agrippa, Frankenstein becomes very interested in alchemy, which is a pseudoscience whose main object is to find a way of turning base metals into gold. You could say that Frankenstein adapted the thinking of the alchemists and instead of transforming other metals into gold attempted to transform a corpse into a living being.
An interesting story about Agrippa concerns sightings of him after his death:
There were rumors that Agrippa had summoned demons on his death bed, and that a black dog roamed the countryside as his familiar. The black dog appears in tales as Faustus, Mephistopheles, and even as a grim in the Harry Potter series.
Endorphins are brain chemicals
known as neurotransmitters which are released when the body feels a certain
amount of stress and pain. Endorphins alter the communication of pain in the
body by interacting with the opiate receptors and blocking the synapse so that signals
cannot be sent to the brain in order to reduce an individual perception of pain.
