Study Notes
- The process of natural selection drives the development of new adaptive phenotypes in populations.
- This process is based on the differential reproduction of organisms and the independent occurrence of elemental forces of evolution.
- Geographical isolation is one factor that can lead to the formation of new species.
- The process of natural selection can cause genetic divergence between populations, which then leads to reproductive isolation. When geographical isolation disappears, the process of natural selection can lead to the formation of a new species.
