bio 181 exam 1 (kosal)Compare and contrast the different mechanisms of speciation (allopatric, sympatric, parapatric, peripatric). - correct answer -Allopatric speciation takes place when populations are geographically isolated. Volcano explodes and populations are divided. -Sympatric occurs without geographic isolation. Occurs through the process of polyploidy: producing individuals with more than two sets of chromosomes.
