Summary Introduction

To review:

The geographical distribution of closely related species in case allopatric speciation is the most prevalent mode of speciation. Also, determine the geographical distribution of sedentary and highly mobile species in case allopatric speciation is the most prevalent mode of speciation.

Introduction:

Speciation is the process of formation of distinct species through the process of evolution. There are four types of speciation based on their isolation. They are allopatric, peripatric, parapatric, and sympatric. The speciation, which results from the division of the population by the physical barrier, is called the allopatric speciation.
