Peter Grant - the evolutionary biologist who has studied finches on Daphne Major (an island in the Galapagos) for several decade
s - collected data on birds' beak sizes, weight, diet and mating behavior to test his hypotheses. This kind of data is an example of:A. taxonomyB. artificial selectionC. empirical evidenceD. non-factual informationE. a belief
Empirical evidence is a type of knowledge obtained through sensory experience, that is, through the process of observation and experimentation. Empirical evidence is often used during the application of the scientific method to test a hypothesis. In the example in question, Peter Grant obtained empirical evidence about birds' biology to verify that his assumptions about their evolution were correct.
Blastocyst . Why ? Because Each of those cells will eventually become a different part of the baby's body as they each multiply, creating muscle, bone, and organ tissues.
