Habitat and Behavioral Sympatric Speciation
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
Sympatric speciation can also proceed without chromosomal change, as when a subgroup shifts to a new resource or habitat and breeds increasingly among itself.
Show
Cichlid fish in one lake diverging in diet and depth, breeding within their own feeding group, can sympatrically speciate over time.
Watch for
This route needs no polyploidy — habitat divergence within one location can isolate breeding on its own.
