- What Is a Species? Section 14.1Figure 14.1 Countless small
evolutionary changes have accumulated through the last 3.8 billion
years, leading to todays great diversity of life. Bacteria: S.

Stock/PunchStock RF How do small mutations, even if numerous,
produce new species? First, we must explore what defines a
species.
- Slide 3
- What Is a Species? Section 14.1Figure 14.3 In the 1700s,
Carolus Linnaeus defined species by appearance. He also created a
naming scheme for species. Butterfly collection: IT Stock
Free/Alamy RF Each species name combines the broader classification
genus with the term species. The scientific name for humans, for
example, is Homo sapiens. More recently, the biological species
concept defines species based on their potential to interbreed and
produce fertile offspring.
- Slide 4
- What Is a Species? Section 14.1 Speciation, the formation of
new species, occurs when some individuals can no longer interbreed
with the rest of the group. Figure 14.3 Butterfly collection: IT

- Reproductive Barriers Cause Speciation Section 14.2 If the
potential to interbreed defines species, reproductive isolation
results in new species. Figure 14.5
- Slide 8
- Reproductive Barriers Cause Speciation Section 14.2Figure 14.4
Prezygotic reproductive barriers occur before the formation of the
zygote, or fertilized egg. They prevent fertilization.
- Slide 9
- Reproductive Barriers Cause Speciation Section 14.2 Postzygotic
reproductive barriers reduce the fitness of offspring produced by
members of two different species. They prevent the development of
fertile offspring. Figure 14.4

postzygotic reproductive barrier? A. A cross between a horse and a
donkey produces an infertile mule. B. Two types of fireflies lure
mates with different flash patterns. C. Bees pollinate one Mimulus
plant species; hummingbirds pollinate another. D. Pine sperm cannot
fertilize spruce eggs. Flower: Doug Sherman/Geofile/RF

- Spatial Patterns Define Three Types of Speciation Section
14.3Figure 14.5 Reproductive barriers arise in three ways,
depending on spatial patterns:
- Slide 14
- Spatial Patterns Define Three Types of Speciation Section
14.3Figure 14.5 In allopatric speciation, a barrier physically
separates a population into two groups that cannot interbreed. With
no gene transfer between the two populations, each proceeds down
its own evolutionary line. Eventually, genetic differences between
the populations give rise to one or more reproductive
barriers.

several subspecies on different islands. Left & right tortoise:

- Spatial Patterns Define Three Types of Speciation Section
14.3Figure 14.5 In parapatric speciation, part of a population
enters a new habitat bordering the range of the parent species.
Mating can occur between populations, but most individuals mate
with their own population. Genetic differences accumulate between
the populations, which may make interbreeding less likely.

14.3Figure 14.9 Cichlid fish have diversified into several species
in a small African lake. Each species specializes in a unique
micro- environment, leading to reproductive isolation and
speciation.
- Slide 20
- Spatial Patterns Define Three Types of Speciation Section
14.3Figure 14.10 Sympatric speciation also occurs when gametes
unite to form polyploid offspring with more chromosomes than either
parent.
- Slide 21
- Spatial Patterns Define Three Types of Speciation Section 14.3
A polyploid organism might form when gametes from two species
unite, producing the first cell of a new species. Figure 14.10

Panama closed, forming a land bridge connecting North and South
America. Snapping shrimp collected from water on one side of the
isthmus look similar to those on the other side, but they cannot
interbreed. What has occurred? A. allopatric speciation B.

- The Pace of Speciation Section 14.4 Figure 14.11 The fossil
record supports two hypotheses about the pace of evolution:
Gradualism Punctuated equilibrium
- Slide 25
- The Pace of Speciation Section 14.4 Gradualism suggests that
evolution proceeds in small, incremental changes over many
generations. Figure 14.11
- Slide 26
- The Pace of Speciation Section 14.4 Punctuated equilibrium
suggests that long periods of little change are interrupted by
bouts of rapid change. Figure 14.11
- Slide 27
- The Pace of Speciation Section 14.4 Bursts of speciation occur
during adaptive radiation: a population inhabiting a patchy or
heterogeneous environment gives rise to multiple specialized forms
in a relatively short time. Figure 14.11
- Slide 28
- The Pace of Speciation Section 14.4 An adaptive radiation might
occur when a key adaptation arises. The first flowering plants, for
example, diversified quickly, as flowers provided a new options for
reproduction. Figure 14.11
- Slide 29
- The Pace of Speciation Section 14.4Figure 14.13 Evolution might
also occur quickly following a mass extinction. The surviving
organisms exploit new resources in the changed environment.

- Section 14.5Figure 14.13 A species is extinct when all of its
members have died. Extinction Marks the End of the Line
- Slide 32
- Section 14.5Figure 14.13 Most extinctions occur as part of the
background extinction rate, the pace at which species go extinct
due to gradually changing environments.
- Slide 33
- Extinction Marks the End of the Line Section 14.5Figure 14.13
Earth has witnessed five mass extinctions in the last 600 million
years. During these periods, many species went extinct in a short
time.
- Slide 34
- Extinction Marks the End of the Line Section 14.5Figure 14.12
Impact theory suggests that meteorites or comets caused some mass
extinctions. Rock: Francois Gohier/Science Source The debris
suspended in the atmosphere after a collision dramatically changed
the environment, leading to the extinction of many species.
- Slide 35
- Extinction Marks the End of the Line Section 14.5 Plate
tectonics (Earths shifting land masses) also might explain mass
extinctions.
