What is a group of ducklings called

Three factors that may have caused thirteen different species of finches to develop on the galapagos island

Oduvanchick [21]

From this one migrant species would come many -- at least 13 species of finch evolving from the single ancestor.
This process in which one species gives rise to multiple species that exploit different niches is called adaptive radiation. The ecological niches exert the selection pressures that push the populations in various directions. On various islands, finch species have become adapted for different diets: seeds, insects, flowers, the blood of seabirds, and leaves.
The ancestral finch was a ground-dwelling, seed-eating finch. After the burst of speciation in the Galapagos, a total of 14 species would exist: three species of ground-dwelling seed-eaters; three others living on cactuses and eating seeds; one living in trees and eating seeds; and 7 species of tree-dwelling insect-eaters.
Scientists long after Darwin spent years trying to understand the process that had created so many types of finches that differed mainly in the size and shape of their beaks.

Match the reproductive structures based on their function and the system to which they belong.

Rashid [163]

Complete question: Find the complete question in the attached file below.

Answer: From the question, the system to which the structures belong are:

Female reproductive structures include: Egg, ovary, fallopian tube, vagina.

Male reproductive structures include: Urethra, sperm, testis, Vas deferens

Explanation:

The female reproductive system is made up of structures, listed above, which functions together with the purpose of reproducing offsprings. Below is the structure matched with the correct function from the question given:

--> Egg: This functions as the sex cell or gamete

--> ovary: The site where gamete are produced

--> Fallopian tube: This functions to transport the gamete from the site of production in the reproductive system

--> Vagina: connects the internal reproductive fluids to the exterior.

The male reproductive system are also made up of structures that functions together to bring about the fertilization of the female sex cell. Below is the structure matched with the correct function from the question given:

--> Urethra: connects the internal reproductive fluids to the exterior.

--> Sperm:This functions as the sex cell or gamete

--> Testis: The site where gamete are produced

--> Vas deferens: This functions to transport the gamete from the site of production in the reproductive system.
