Drinking salt water is harmful because it messes up the salt concentration in each of your red blood cells. It over loads the salt in it and causes the cell to swell up and burst due to it trying to let in more water to balance the salt concentration out.

Two species of finches found on the same galápagos island but feeding on different food sources is an example of ________ specia
ICE Princess25 [194]

Two species of finches found on the same galápagos island but feeding on different food sources is an example of sympatric speciation.

<h3>What is speciation?</h3>

Speciation is the evolutionary process that leads to reproductive isolation and eventually to the emergence of new species.

Sympatric speciation refers to the emergence of reproductive barriers in individuals of the same species that inhabit the same region, whereas allopatric speciation occurs in individuals separated by geographic barriers.

In conclusion, two species of finches found on the same galápagos island but feeding on different food sources is an example of sympatric speciation.

Veronica wrote Charles Darwin’s main points on the board, but she made a mistake in one point.
Leno4ka [110]

<span>The question above is incomplete, the remaining part of the question is given below:
1. Since more offspring are produced than an environment can support, organisms within a population must compete for resources to survive.

2. Due to variations within the population, some competitors will be better equipped for survival than others.

3. The best-equipped organisms will survive and will produce well-equipped offspring. 

4. Variations that help with survival will be passed on to future generations and will rapidly change the whole population.

Which point is flawed as written above?
A. point 1
B. point 2
C. point 3
D. point 4</span>

ANSWER

The correct option is D.

All the options written above about Darwin's theory are quite correct with the exception of option D. Charles Darwin was the scientist who proposed the theory of evolution by mean of natural selection. Darwin submitted that, due to the scarcity of needed resources in an environment, it is only the fittest individuals in a particular population that will be able to survive and produce offspring that share their adaptability features. As this continue from generation to generation, it leads to evolution, which is defined as the changes overtime, which give rise to new species that share a common ancestors. Contrary to the point made in option D, evolution by natural selection is not a rapid process at all, it is a process that occur over a long period of time.
