[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

Speciation refers to the process by which new species are formed. It involves the development of reproductive barriers between populations, leading to the evolution of distinct species. This can occur through various mechanisms such as geographic isolation, genetic mutations, natural selection, and genetic drift. Overall, speciation results in the formation of unique and genetically distinct species from a common ancestor.
