Will geographical isolation be a major factor in the speciation of an organism that reproduces asexually? Give reason for your answer.

Separation of species by physical barriers such as water forms, oceans, mountains etc. is defined as Geographic Isolation. Geographic Isolation won’t have any impact on the organism that reproduces asexually as they require only one parent. Therefore even if the organisms are separated from each other they can reproduce asexually. Asexual Reproduction leads to offspring which is an exact copy of the parent and there is no variation
