Refer to the paragraph on dark-eyed junco birds. The UCSD campus male junco population tails are about 36% white, whereas the ta
ils of males from nearby mountain populations are about 4045% white. The founding stock of UCSD birds was likely from the nearby mountain populations because some of those birds overwinter on the UCSD campus each year. Population sizes on the UCSD campus have been reasonably large, and there are significant habitat differences between the UCSD campus and the mountain coniferous forests; UCSD campus has a more open environment (making birds more visible) and a lower junco density (decreasing intraspecific competition) than that in the mountain forests. Given this information, which of the following evolutionary mechanisms do you think is most likely responsible for the difference between the UCSD and mountain populations? a. gene flow
b. genetic drift
c. natural selection
d. mutation
A reason could be the bodies ability to process the water based vitamin as well as the person's diet. many things have b12 in it but choosing to cut something out, like meat, could cause a deficiency
Two plates pushed together create a convergent fault. If one plate is oceanic and the other continental, the edge of the oceanic plate will be pushed down. When two plates move away from each other they create a divergent boundary. When this happens under oceans, new ocean floor is created.
a scholarly work falls within the journal's scope, the research topic has been clearly formulated, a suitable approach has been taken to address the scientific issues involved.
