Allopatric speciation (from the ancient Greek allos, "other" + Greek patra, "fatherland") or geographic speciation is speciation that occurs when biological populations of the same species become vicariant — isolated from each other to an extent that prevents or interferes with genetic interchange. This can be the result of population dispersal leading to emigration, or by geographical changes such as mountain formation, island formation, or large scale human activities (for example agricultural and civil engineering developments). The vicariant populations then undergo genotypic or phenotypic divergence as: (a) they become subjected to different selective pressures, (b) they independently undergo genetic drift, and (c) different mutations arise in the populations' gene pools.
The separate populations over time may evolve distinctly different characteristics. If the geographical barriers are later removed, members of the two populations may be unable to successfully mate with each other, at which point, the genetically isolated groups have emerged as different species. Allopatric isolation is a key factor in speciation and a common process by which new species arise. Adaptive radiation, as observed by Charles Darwin in Galapagos finches, is a consequence of allopatric speciation among island populations.
You just repeated the same nonsense as above. My answer stands but it appears you don’t understand it.
I can see that people are......................................... Drivel ........................
Who ever told you it does not apply to humans. The point is you don’t understand the term and that is not my problem as I have explained this to you before as have many others. I suggest you learn its meaning or give up using it.
So now whats your excuse why Allopatric speciation doesn't apply to humans I have to see this.
I suggest you learn its meaning or give up using it.
And for the second time now you have avoided explaining why Allopatric speciation doesn't apply to humans, or wait, is it because you don't have a reason
Well of course they don’t they understand its meaning but you alas do not. I suggest you learn its meaning or give up using it.
There is nothing false about the statement, NO doctor has ever made the claim that allopatric speciation is the reason why they can't produce offspring.
Apart from the fact you have only just discovered how it is spelt, that you demonstrate repeatedly you do not understand what it is. Please show proof that you claim to have.
Allopatric speciation is dead, or it at least died when it comes to humans. There is simply to much proof that says its false.
I suggest you change it to Ass
Notice my signature MULES two species able to breed, so how is Allopatric speciation going to claim evolution has occured when its obviously proven false.
Of course it is a fact. No one have ever speciated but it does showcase that after around 1000 pages you still do not have the first clue about evolution. Tragic really
Doctors never telling a patient that they have speciated, is not an opinion, its a fact.
I see no signs of any valid argument. can you link or quote it?
I have provided a valid argument based on the fact that there are species able to breed in and both out of species, proves that relationship isolation is false.
That is how you support this fictitious valid argument. I dont hold out much hope for the valid argument then
To support this fact I even gave the example of how no doctor has ever used it as an excuse, with good reason too.
Stop kidding yourself, you have offered nothing close to a valid argument. It only seems valid to you because you don't seem to understand what your talking about. The source you posted even explained it but you were too busy cherry picking notice.
If you don't read or don't understand what you are offering as proof, why should anyone even waste their time discussing this with you?
See you around.
I'm sorry but your quote unquote answer as you claim, doesn't stand. It doesn't stand for anything. The only thing you do is avoid answering any of the questions to get to the bottom of the debate, and reflect everthing back at me claiming that I'm simply wrong. Why don't you prove something for once, anything.
I can see that people are......................................... Drivel ........................
You just repeated the same nonsense as above. My answer stands but it appears you don’t understand it.
I understand it just fine. Allopatric speciation is a joke and offers no proof of speciation.
So now whats your excuse why Allopatric speciation doesn't apply to humans I have to see this.
Who ever told you it does not apply to humans. The point is you don’t understand the term and that is not my problem as I have explained this to you before as have many others. I suggest you learn its meaning or give up using it.
It's not to difficult to understand, there isn't much to it. A false assumption is made that species no longer producing offspring appear to have evolved. Of course they even worded it as though they are even unsure, but you evolutionists take everything to the degree that you do because it supports your fantasy.
And for the second time now you have avoided explaining why Allopatric speciation doesn't apply to humans, or wait, is it because you don't have a reason
I suggest you learn its meaning or give up using it.
And you avoided the same question for 3 times now because you don't have an honest answer. Why don't you give it up instead of just reflecting all of the questions back on me like you always do. You seem to have no excuse why doctors have never used the excuse with humans that they must have speciated.
There is nothing false about the statement, NO doctor has ever made the claim that allopatric speciation is the reason why they can't produce offspring.
Well of course they don’t they understand its meaning but you alas do not. I suggest you learn its meaning or give up using it.
Well for starters the author of the article is even admitting that it appears they have speciated, in other words hes not sure, and hes not sure because he is using the false idea that they stopped producing so they must have changed. No proof.

I'm not interested in what YOUR signature should be.

And for the 4th time now you have managed to deflect my question and pose the problem back on me. My understanding is not the problem here, the false claims made about Allopatric speciation are. Now are you going to be serious and address that, or are you going to chicken out again and deflect the question?
Doctors never telling a patient that they have speciated, is not an opinion, its a fact.
Of course it is a fact. No one have ever speciated but it does showcase that after around 1000 pages you still do not have the first clue about evolution. Tragic really
According to Allopatric speciation a rule is made that if a species stops producing offspring, its because it has changed enough that its now a different species. I'm proving that false as we have non matching species, the horse and the donkey that are able to produce offspring.
I have provided a valid argument based on the fact that there are species able to breed in and both out of species, proves that relationship isolation is false.
I see no signs of any valid argument. can you link or quote it?
And what is your basis, is it because speciation doesn't apply to humans, and why.
To support this fact I even gave the example of how no doctor has ever used it as an excuse, with good reason too.
That is how you support this fictitious valid argument. I dont hold out much hope for the valid argument then
Ya and I'm the first to fall for it right...
And again for the third time, you made the assumption that just because I posed that, that I believed in that. I guess your just no getting this.
Well sure it does. The false claim is made that reproductive isolation is proof that a species has evolved. But how can that be when we have non matching species that are able to mate, as well as matching species that are unable to produce offspring.
Let me put it to you this way so that it makes more sense. My neighbor down the way is unable to produce children. Now her and her husband already have children so we know they should be functioning as normal. Doctors check out both the husband and wife and are unable to come up with any reason as to why they are no longer able to produce children. He has a viable sperm count and she is in order as well.
Doctors NEVER give her the excuse that she has evolved, which has caused her to no longer be able to produce children with her husband.
Ya and I'm the first to fall for it right, I mean after all I'm even the person that coined the term cabbit.
A doctor doesn't ever tell a patient that evolution has caused relationship isolation with them because IT CANT.
So now whats your excuse why Allopatric speciation doesn't apply to humans

There is no forrest, and no trees, this is not a thick conversation that is to difficult for you to understand, Allopatric speciation is obviously false.
Nope. I answered your question 4 times but you don’t understand the answer obviously. I will give it to you again
And you avoided the same question for 3 times now because you don't have an honest answer.
And that false claim is yours because you have no idea what you are talking about.
And for the 4th time now you have managed to deflect my question and pose the problem back on me. My understanding is not the problem here, the false claims made about Allopatric speciation are.
I am serious. I suggest you learn its meaning or give up using it.
Now are you going to be serious and address that, or are you going to chicken out again and deflect the question?
You have no idea do you? I've changed my answer to better suit your level of understanding. I suggest you give up using it.
According to Allopatric speciation a rule is made that if a species stops producing offspring, its because it has changed enough that its now a different species.
Also been there, done that and you don’t understand it. Your ignorance is not my responsibility, it is yours and yours to correct.
I'm proving that false as we have non matching species, the horse and the donkey that are able to produce offspring.
The very fact you do not understand I have given you my answer already showcases you have no idea what you are talking about and have not got the knowledge to allow you to understand what others are telling you.
To support this fact I even gave the example of how no doctor has ever used it as an excuse, with good reason too.
That is how you support this fictitious valid argument. I don’t hold out much hope for the valid argument then

They are making an assumption that seperation and exposure to certain differences from the original group will produce speciation. Of course there is no proof of this, and this is the whole argument I'm speaking about.
I wouldn't know, I don't hang out with that age group, but it sounds like you might.
Probably not the first, but almost certainly the oldest—I suppose you are older than eight or nine years?
It was a rhetorical question, but I guess you wouldnt understand that. I have never posted that I stated lies. Your just reading into things that aren't there which if very common amongst evolutionists.
And again for the third time, you made the assumption that just because I posed that, that I believed in that. I guess your just no getting this.
So now you are admitting that you are a liar?
You posted a statement and then supported that statement in more posts and now you just state that you posted lies.
As I have stated you are not trustable. You admit that.
