We can’t define a species by looks alone!
If we defined a species If we defined a species as looking similar, these as looking similar, these
would ALL be two would ALL be two separate species!separate species!

A species is: A group of interbreeding populations Reproductively isolatedisolated (kept apart) from other such
groups Organisms must be able to mate and produce fertile
offspring (This is why mules, ligers, and beefalo aren’t new
species! No fertile offspring!)

When you can mate and and produce fertile offspringproduce fertile offspring, you are in the same gene pool! Because they can Because they can
mate and produce mate and produce a fertile puppy, the a fertile puppy, the
Beagle and Pug Beagle and Pug share a gene pool!share a gene pool!

Reproductive isolationReproductive isolation: when members of two populations cannot mate and produce fertile offspring
Isolation
1. Behavioral2. Geographic3. Temporal

Two species could interbreed but have different courtship rituals Example: Different bird songs
Western Meadowlark Eastern Meadowlark

Rivers, mountains, etc… keep populations apart Separates into two separate gene
pools Many “abiotic” factors
Abiotic = not livingAbiotic = not living

Species reproduce at different times Not seen in humans, more in other species Some animals have periods where they are
in “heat” Animals that reproduce at different
times of the year might as well be separated by a geographic barrier

Collected from what islands? Galapagos islands
Why are they special? Darwin thought they were
differentdifferent types of birds Blackbirds, grossbeaks, finches, etc…
ALL finches 13 new species, never seen before

1. Founders arrive Birds blown hundreds of miles off of the
mainland Survive & reproduce on island

2. Islands separate populations Finches do not like to travel over open water Geographic (“abiotic”) isolation No longer can breed with each other

3. Changes in gene pool Populations adapted to local environment Different plants on each island means different
food for birds Large seeds require large beaks to crack them open Small beaks better at opening small seeds

4. Reproductive isolation If birds were somehow able to come in contact
with each other again, they would be too alien now
Finches are attracted to birds with the same size beak
They are now separate species

Process of isolation, genetic change, and reproductive isolation has repeated itself many times
13 species of finch found nowhere else on planet
