Which statement best explains why the beaks of finches in the Galápagos Islands are different based on what they eat

Biology

Hey there! Darwin's finches had different beak sizes and shapes because of natural selection. Over time, the more desirable traits become more dominant and distinct. These beaks were best fit for the type of food the bird ate. Smaller-beaked birds usually have a seed diet, and larger-beaked birds usually eat large nuts or small creatures like worms and bugs. Hope this helps!

During vegetative propagation, offspring grow from parts of the parent
zhannawk [14.2K]

Ans:

Please read the explanation section.

Explanation:

Vegetative propagation does not require seeds or spores to produce offspring. In this propagation, offspring grow from a specific part of the parent plant. In different plants, vegetative propagation happens in different ways. Here are a few examples.

  • Garlic, onions, and tulip plants all reproduce using genuine bulbs/true bulbs. These short covered stems are also called scaly bulbs because it has many layers.
  • Crocuses reproduce using corms. Corms are similar to genuine bulbs. But, a corm doesn’t have as many layers as true bulbs.
  • Potato plants reproduce using tubers. These underground growths propagate new plants from stems or growing points, which is called eyes.
  • Ginger plants reproduce using rhizomes. These stems are those which grow sideways along with the soil or just below the surface.
  • Strawberry plants reproduce using stolons. Stolons are looking like branches growing along the ground.

What is homeostasis... Be discriptive
Semenov [28]
<span>(I got this from my handbook dictionary)
"the tendency toward a relatively stable equilibrium between interdependent elements, especially as maintained by physiological processes."

What that basically means is that homeostasis is the ability to respond to certain environments. It is how you respond to environmental changes and how you basically adapt to it.. that's where the idea of response and adaption came from.

Hope this Helps!! (I had a quiz on this once)
