Answer is A. A population becomes separated by environmental factors into two groups that do not reproduce with one another.

When a population of a species become geographically separated then gene flow between them stops. Over a period of time, the population may become genetically different in response to the natural selection due to different environments. Selection and genetic drift will act differently on these two separated populations. This will results into two separate species. This type of speciation is called allopatric speciation.

kkurt [141]
The axis of the earth is tilted (ANSWER IS C). The equator is heated more than other areas because the sun's rays hit it directly.
As you move north or south of the equator, they fall slantingly or obliquely.
When summer is in the south and vice versa, the heat also changes with the earth's rotation.
The tropic of Capricorn and the tropic of Cancer alternately get direct sunlight.
Due to the uneven heating of the earth, wind and ocean currents are created, supporting life.
