Those organisms with phenotypes providing selective advantage are likely to produce more offspring and pass on their favourable alleles to the next generation
Differential reproductive success occurs because not all individuals are likely to reproduce resulting in this change in allele frequancy within a populations gene pool
New species are able to arise from existing species when genetic difference lead to an inability of members of populations to interbreed and produce fertile offspring's
Examples of mutations which might change reproductive behaviours in individuals in the same population
Mutations which change courtshipbehaviours/ rituals - no longer attractive to majority of the population - behavioural mutations
Mutations which change the genitalia of certain individuals preventing successful mating - mechanical mutations
Mutations which result in individuals within the same population developing differentflowering or mating seasons or becoming successfully inactive at different times of the year - seasonal mutations
