Answer:

e) The activation energy of the reverse reaction is greater than that of the forward reaction.

Explanation:

  • Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy that is required by the reactants to start a reaction.
  • An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases heat energy to the surrounding while an endothermic reactions is a reaction that absorbs heat from the surrounding.
  • <em><u>In reversible reactions, when the forward reaction is exothermic it means the reverse reaction will be endothermic, therefore the reverse reaction will have a higher activation energy than the forward reaction.</u></em> The activation energy of the reverse reaction will be the sum of the enthalpy and the activation energy of the forward reaction.

Darwin observed the beaks of the birds and how the different beaks helped the birds to eat different types of seeds.

This relates to natural selection because certain finches with say a smaller shorter beak would be able to eat only smaller seeds and fruits as to where a finch with a longer larger beak could eat larger bigger seeds and fruits. 

Hope this helped! Have a great day!
