Document Summary
Reproductive isolation mechanisms: any biological characteristic that keeps two gene pools from mixing. Temporal isolation species live in different habitats species breed at different times. Hybrid inviability hybrid sterility species have non- matching receptors on gametes hybrid offspring do not complete development hybrid offspring cannot produce gametes hybrid breakdown hybrid offspring have reduced survival or fetility. Linnaeus invented the system of binomial nomenclature, in which species are assigned a. Latinized two-part name, a species name or binomial. The first part of the name identifies a genus (plural, genera), a group of species with similar characteristics. The second part is the specific epithet. By convention, the first letter of a generic name is always capitalized, the species name is never capitalized, and the entire binomial is italicized (or underlined in handwritten work). Taxonomic hierarchy, comprises a nested series of formal categories: domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species, and subspecies.
