Answer:

Mechanical isolation

Explanation:

mechanical isolation is a form of prezygotic reproductive barrier, whereby similar species organisms become isolated and unable to successfully interbreed with each other to form zygote, as a result of incompatibility of their reproductive organ or structure, which prevents them from copulating. As a result of this, both species become separated as there is no gene flow between both.

The two species of juniper can be said to be kept separate by mechanical isolation, due to the differences and incompatibility of their reproductive structure.
