<span>Predict which species of finch would be most likely to survive if the weather on the Galapagos Islands gradually changed and the seeds available to the finches became larger with heavier coverings.
Answer: The </span><span>species of finch that would be most likely to survive are </span>Large Ground Finches because they have big, thick beaks to break the seed-heavy coverings.
The surface layer of the water freezes solid creating a barrier that insulates the ice below so that it keeps a steady temperature usually a few degrees above freezing (32 degrees).
It is the circulatory system and respiratory system.
Answer:
Parapatric speciation
Explanation:
There are different types of speciation. Parapatric speciation consists of new species evolving from a continuous distribution. That is, there is no physical barrier that might impede the gene flow, in fact, it might continue during the speciation process.
There is an environmental gradient that determines different phenotypes for different environmental conditions. One phenotype is more adapted to one of the distribution extremes than the other phenotype. In the exposed case, the environmental gradient is given by the differences in pH.
In the border between the environmental extremes, there is the primary hybrid zone, where both phenotypic forms might meet and hybridize.
