What is the best explanation for why we have so many examples of species originating through hybridization? Hybridization is more likely to occur in regions where scientists have put in more effort studying speciation Hybridization has been carried out frequently by farmers attempting to produce new, better species to grow Hybridization occurs fairly regularly, and when it leads to new species only takes a few generations, which is fast enough for researchers to see fairly easily Hybridization is fairly easy to study in captivity
