WILL GEOGRAPHICAL ISOLATION BE A MAJOR FACTOR IN THE SPECIATION OF AN ORGANISM THAT REPRODUCES ASEXUALLY? WHY OR WHY NOT?
No, in asexually reproducing organisms there is very little variation over generations. Asexual reproduction does not require two organisms to reproduce as variations in the DNA are not enough to raise a new species. Thus geographical isolation is not a major factor.
