Because the species of finches on the Galápagos island have various appearances but still mate with other finches and produce fertile offspring making it is difficult for scientists to distinguish between two groups of individuals as separate species.

<h3>What is the island of Galápagos?</h3>

The Pacific Ocean island of Galápagos is located to the west of Ecuador. It is a volcanic island known for its diverse and endemic types of living things.

<h3>Why is it difficult to find new species in Finches?</h3>

Charles Darwin spent several years studying the many species of finches on the Galápagos island. He saw a great deal of variation in these finches, which supports the hypothesis of natural selection.

However. it is challenging for scientists to discern between two separate species because the species of finches on the Galápagos island have a variety of features that are different but still mate with other finches and produce fertile offspring.

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

The acid in the lemon juice denatured the milk proteins.

Explanation:

The important biomolecule of the living organism is protein. Proteins are made of the repeating units of the alpha amino acids that are attached together through the peptide bond.

The proteins get denatured if they are subjected to the change in the temperature conditions or the additions of the chemicals. The addition of the lemon juice that acts as the acid coagulates the protein present in the milk and results in the clump formation.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a).
