Asa Walter · Answer 1

The formation of species is unusual task to happen naturally and with no involvement of biological science. But with science too they can only create an interbreed or an offspring and not an entirely original species. So for a new species to form the time may vary considerably.

Lorelei Dougherty · Answer 2

The correct answer is - the time required varies considerably.

The evolutionary processes are still going on in all of the populations of living things on Earth. The time needed for a new species to form depends greatly on the type of organism and the environmental pressure. Some organisms reproduce quickly, like bacteria for example, and the process of speciation is much faster for those organisms than for example mammals or plants.
