<span>1. List five observations Darwin made about the Amblyrhynchus lizards.
a. They measure about 2-3 feet long.
b. They are cold-blooded.
c. They feed on crab and sea lion feces.
d. They are the only marine iguanas in the world.
e. Their nostrils are connected to salt glands that allow them to expel excess sea salt.
</span><span>2. Describe two examples of structural adaptations that Darwin observed.
a. </span><span>Darwin discovered that finches in the Galapagos have thirteen different kinds of beaks.
b. </span>Darwin observed two kinds of giant tortoises that are distinguished by the shapes of their carapaces (dome-shaped and saddle-shaped).
3. <span>Describe two behavioral adaptations that Darwin observed.
</span>
a. <span>The marine iguanas have developed several ways of coping with the cold. At night, they huddle together for warmth.
b. </span>In the face of famine, the marine iguanas have adapted by having the ability to shrink their body size. They are able to grow back to their original size once the food is supply increases.
4. <span>Explain how these observations influenced his theory of evolution?
</span>
These observations led Darwin to believe that if a certain trait is more advantageous in a specific environment, then the carriers of that trait are more likely to survive into adulthood and to generate offspring than those who do not have that trait. Eventually, the advantageous traits for a species will proliferate. Darwin later called this as "survival of the fittest".
Hello there! do you have any choices? if so would you please add them.
Answer:
yes
Explanation:
A table is a tool for displaying data in rows and columns.
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
First, let us look at the complete equation of respiration:
The respective number of each atom in the reactants and the products can be filled in the table thus:
Types of atom Number of atom in reactants Number of atom in products
Carbon 6 6
Hydrogen 12 12
Oxygen 18 18
<em>The total number of each atom in the reactants is equal to the total number in the products. Hence, the calculation confirms the law of conservation of matter that says that matters can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be converted from one form to another in a course of a reaction. </em>
