When populations are isolated, they can’t breed outside their own population so their alleles (genetics!!!) along with their mutations cannot mix. Over many generations they become more and more different from one another until their genetic differences are SO great that they can no longer mate and produce fertile offspring. When that happens, they are considered two separate species.
