Which of the following would be considered a mechanism of post-zygotic reproductive isolation? Male and female individuals copulate successfully, but the gametes do not come into contact. Individuals have different behaviors that are incompatible with mating. Habitat isolation prevents individuals from mating. The zygote dies early in embryogenesis. The zygote does not form due to incompatibilities between the male and female gametes.
