For the answer to the question above, <span>Muscles can only contract, not push </span>

<span>"Muscle fiber generates tension through the action of actin and myosin cross-bridge cycling. While under tension, the muscle may lengthen, shorten or remain the same. Though the term 'contraction' implies shortening, when referring to the muscular system it means muscle fibers generating tension with the help of motor neurons (the terms twitch tension, twitch force, and fiber contraction are also used)."</span>

Change of land use can alter heat distribution patterns and surface ______ runoff.
Aleonysh [2.5K]
I think a change of land use can alter heat distribution patterns and surface water runoff. Surface runoff is water, from rain, snow melt, or other sources of water, that flows over the land surface, and is the major component of water cycle. The change of land use may alter surface water run off that occurs on surfaces before reaching a channel.

Alla [95]

Answer:

The correct answers would be natural selection and high genetic variation in the species.

Natural selection refers to the natural phenomenon by which organisms which are better adapted or have survival traits tend to survive and reproduce more in the environment.

It leads to an increase in the frequency of the trait in a population.

Genetic variation refers to the sum total of all the genetic characteristics present in a population. Higher genetic diversity higher are the chances of a population to survive.  

Similarly, different sizes of the beaks are the result of high genetic diversity out of which large size beak was favored by natural selection.  

Ultimately, the large beak size trait spreads through the population.
