Speciation
Speciation is the process that forms new species. Speciation happens when groups of living things in a population become physically separated or become separated by their behaviors.
The definition of a species is a group of organisms that will
1. Interbreed (they will mate with each other)
2. Produce FERTILE offspring (their babies can have babies)
Watch the video below for a good explanation of how a new species can form. Use this video and the PowerPoint linked below to finish your Adaptation and Speciation Book notes.
