Many songbirds breed in North America in the spring and summer and then migrate to Central and South America in the fall. They s

pend the winter in these warmer areas, where they feed and prepare for the spring migration north and another breeding season. Two hypothetical species of sparrow, A and B, overwinter together in mixed flocks in Costa Rica. In spring, species A goes to the east coast of North America, and species B goes to the west coast. What can you say about the isolating mechanisms of these two species?
A. One of the species is probably polyploid, so they are reproductively isolated by genetic incompatibility.

B.Reinforcement must be occurring when they winter together.

C.The two species do not breed in the same area, so they are reproductively isolated by allopatry.

D.They must have strong prezygotic or postzygotic isolating mechanisms in order to spend winter in such close proximity.

Answer:

C.The two species do not breed in the same area, so they are reproductively isolated by allopatry.

Explanation:

Allopatry means that these two species are geographically separated during the breeding season, so they are reproductively isolated.

Allopatric speciation is a form of speciation (creation of new species) that occurs as a result of geographic isolation. This means that a part of population becomes physically separated from the initial main population. There is no gene flow between these two populations and as a result the two populations  reach a high level  of genetic divergence. They can no longer interbreed which means they become two different species (speciation).
