Evolution has been replicated in a laboratory. 1 species became 2.
Source?
And how does that prove macro-evolution? How is speciation determined, as how do they determine when they have 2 separate species?

An accumulation of small changes that happen in a short time leads to large changes over a long time.
By whether or not the populations can interbreed. If they can interbreed they are the same species. If they can not interbreed they are separate species.
Such sub-speciation definitely happens - that's how we got the variety of animals with different traits within a species (for example all the subspecies of bears or dogs there are).
That's an assertion. Is there empirical evidence for that? Has anyone observed it? It's one thing to change color and thickness of the coat or the length of the beak, but it doesn't follow big complex changes which require simultaneous mutation of multiple interdependent systems of the organism are possible through the process of adaptation.
Horses and donkeys interbreed. Are they the same species? There are many examples of hybridization.
