Answer 1

Will geographical isolation be a major factor in the speciation of an organism that reproduces asexually? Why or why not?

It can't help in specification of asexually reproducing organism because asexual reproduction reproduction involves only in a single organism & there are no chances of variation in their hereditary material.

|$\huge\mathrm\pink{Solution}$|

In the case of the asexually reproducing organism, geographical isolation can’t be serious. Consider evolution as a result of meiosis which doesn’t happen throughout reproduction. Also, reproduction includes single parent. Therefore there are terribly rare possibilities of variation and while not variation there can’t be evolution.
