Type of Reproductive Isolating Mechanism Example Hybrid embryos between sheep and goats die in early development. Some fish that live in shallow water compared to fish that live in deep water. Cotton plants produce fertile hybrids, but their offspring do not survive. Flowers that bloom at different times in a season. Mules are the product of horses and donkeys but are sterile. Genital anatomy may vary enough that the species' parts do not fit together. Differences in the mating calls of frogs.
