That means that they cannot produce viable offspring and are reproductively isolated.
This occurrence make them not mating with each other to prevent weak offsprings that wouldn't be able to survive

hope this helps

They are genetically and reproductively isolated. For the mule the specific isolation mechanism is termed as "Hybrid Inviability", where the postzygotic isolating mechanism prevents the hybrid from passing on their genes. A zygote may form with the sperm and egg, but the embryo will dies after a few cell divisions. The genetic information from male and female parents is insufficient to carry the organism through morphogenesis. *There are rare documented cases of a mule producing a viable offspring.

A key prediction/implication of evolutionary theory is that:
Valentin [98]

Answer:

-all species change gradually over time.

Explanation:

Mutation often results from cell replication and division. These occur as small, random, errors within the genetic code that become more common or stable within a population over time as traits.

As organisms live within varying niches, environmental changes may render some genetic traits obsolete. However, others may become more beneficial as an adaptation. These adaptations, which make an organism and its offspring suited to a niche, and more likely to survive and reproduce become inherited- this process is called evolution.

What is gene flow and how does it attect the gene pool?
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Gene flow, also called gene migration, the introduction of genetic material (by interbreeding) from one population of a species to another, thereby changing the composition of the gene pool of the receiving population. The introduction of new alleles through gene flow increases variability within the population and makes possible new combinations of traits. In humans gene flow usually comes about through the actual migration of human populations, either voluntary or forced.
