A metapopulation is a group of spatially separated populations of the same species which interact at some level.

Genetic admixture occurs when individuals from two or more previously separated populations begin interbreeding.

There are however several geographically separated breeding populations that differ in the extent and shade of markings.

It was believed that differentiation of separated populations might be the cause of variations between populations.

The separated population represents a population inversion which can exhibit stimulated emissions.

The accumulated genetic changes may result in separated populations that can no longer interbreed if they are reunited.

Remaining cheetahs are divided into widely separated populations.

This suggests that forest fragmentation may not completely isolate separated populations.

It occurs in two separated populations in their native habitats.

Effects other than physical separation prevent interbreeding between the two separated populations.
