1.) Come up with one (1) example of how two (2) sympatric species of Apis bees could potentially be prevented from successfully mating with each other in the wild. The mechanism could be behavioral, environmental, etc. - just no direct human intervention. Your example can be based on reality or be totally imaginary. Just make sure to explain how your answer would successfully contribute to reproductive isolation.

The world has been hit hard by the latest COVID-19 pandemic, and health services and authorities in every country are struggling to reduce spread, fight disease and protect the population. Strict restrictions on movement, social distance and locking in certain cities have been imposed on people and businesses since the outbreak in Wuhan, China in December 2019. However, these widespread lockdowns, social distances and restrictions have led to major changes in human activity and have therefore produced some jarring effects across land, air and sea.
