Habitat zones properly defined. Where closely related species' ranges overlap, producing an area where mating occurs between members of two closely related species; viable offspring. Composition where neighboring zones interact, cultures gradual change species ecosystems border each other; experience gene an area where members of two closely related species intermingle. But whole zone where rapid speciation occurring.

21. Sympatric speciation occurs in populations that live in the same geographic area. How is this possible? 22. What are hybrid zones?
Species A and Species B, both closely related to one another, have distinct habitats that have very little interbreeding. However, some individuals from Species A and Species B occasionally produce hybrid offspring in the area that separates both of their respective habitats. These hybrid offspring have low fitness and struggle to survive in both ancestral habitats but have extremely high fitness in the area in between. What is the most possible outcome of this secondary contact between Species A and Species B? Extinction of one of the species Fusion of the populations Formation of a hybrid zone Reinforcement of divergence
