1) If two species produce a hybrid off spring that is infertile, is reproductive isolation between the two species still maintained? Explain your answer.
2) Two species of grass plants flower at different times of year, but they live in the same habitat. What type of reproductive isolating mechanism is this?
I will give full stars on the best answer for this!

#2 is Temporal isolation as the flowers have different time zones,
as for number one, it's asking that when two different but similar species meet,
a donkey and horse is a good example, if they mate and make a mule, will the donkey and horse still be isolated reproductively. I'm not sure about the answer itself, it's been a while and my bio is a bit crusty.
Cheers!
