What are the mechanisms of natural selection, and how do they lead to changes in

Biology

Nata [24]3 years ago

Darwin's proposed mechanism for evolution is natural selection. Natural selection allows species to respond to their surroundings through time, or to become progressively excellently-suited. Natural selection is environmentally based and involves established heritable variation within a population.

They lead to changes in  species over time:

  • Darwin suggested species will evolve over time, new species originate from pre-existing species, and all species share a common ancestor with each other.
  • In this framework each organism has its own special set of heritable i.e genetic variations from the common ancestor that have slowly developed over very longer periods of time.
  • Parroted branching activities that isolate new species from a common ancestor create a multi-level tree that connects all living organisms.

Explain why the offspring of a cactus finch and a medium ground finch would look like an intermediate between the two birds, but
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

How the finch offspring "looks" is determined by the genes it inherits (nature) whereas the offspring will be able to learn the song from their parent (nurture). In this case, it is the male parent that teaches the song to their young. Hence, the song that the finch offspring learns is from the male finch parent which is why it remains the same as before.
