<span>Three months after fertilization and development of a placenta around the developing fetus, the corpus luteum regresses and forms the corpus albicans.</span> Formed placenta takes over progesterone production (which was the role of corpus luteum) and the corpus luteum degrades into a corpus albicans. The corpus luteum is being broken down by macrophages, in a process called luteolysis. The remains of the corpus albicans may persist as a scar on the ovary.
The correct answer that would best complete the given statement above would be the term ADAPTIVE RADIATION. African cichlids are a group of closely related fish species. There are at least 500 known species living in three small lakes. Over time, specialized teeth and body colorations have evolved for each species in response to mutations and competition for food and mates. This change over time is an example of ADAPTIVE RADIATION. Adaptive radiation by definition, is <span>the diversification of a group of organisms into forms filling different ecological niches.</span>

Physical differences in beaks of birds would develop as a result of different environmental changes.
<h3>What is Evolution?</h3>
This is described as the process in which heritable characteristics are changed in species over successive generations. This occurs as a result of natural selection in which the traits suitable for survival are passed to the offspring.
This is usually as a result of a change in the environmental factors which ensures that the organisms are able to adapt so as not to die out and go extinct in this type of scenario.
