1 How do we know if two animals are the same species?
Date: 3/29/17 Topic: Speciation Page # ___ Must wear uniforms/IDs! 3/29/17 EBHS Admit Slip How do we know if two animals are the same species?

2 (Use your homework notes!)
What defines a species? How do you know if two animals are different species or the same species? (Use your homework notes!)

3 Definition of a Species*
Two animals are the same species if they can mate and produce fertile offspring* This means their BABIES must be have to HAVE BABIES* What’s it called when two different species mate and produce an offspring?

12 How do organisms become different species?
*Speciation = The slow process of one species turning into two different species Turn into 2 different species = evolution Mechanisms of Evolution…

13 Mechanisms of Evolution
Mutation Gene Flow Genetic Drift Bottleneck Effect Founder Effect Natural Selection Geographic Isolation Start as 1 species  become 2 different species Brief Review (Will be part of ppt!)
