Answer:

Two adaptations of Darwin's Finches that helped them to survive are:

  • Beak structure.
  • Behavioral adaptations to use tools for foraging.

Explanation:

There are fourteen species of Darwin's finches that originated from a single  species of ground dwelling seed eating finch.

These Finches occupied different niche in the Galapagos island  and were widely studied by Darwin.

These finches are one of the best Examples of Adaptive radiation.

Studies state that during severe drought in Galapagos island most vegetation dried out and a few softer seeds were left.

These few seeds were quickly fed upon by the birds and only dry , hard seeds were left.

Only birds who had large and hard beaks could feed on these hard dry seeds.

To Ensure survival the Finches developed adaptations which resulted in hard and large beaks so that they can feed on those dried hard seed.

Some groups started feeding on insects and got their beaks adapted to capture and kill insects.

Second line of adaptation included changes in behaviour and cognitive intelligence where birds started using tools for foraging.

Blood that circulates through the body passes through one of the two kidneys. Urea, uric acid, and water are removed from the blood and most of the water is put back into the system.

List molar concentrations (0.0 M, 0.2 M, etc.) at which water entered the potato strips. Why did water move into the potato stri
kati45 [8]

Answer:

- Water entered the potato strips because the potato cells contained higher concentration of solutes than its external environment.

- The solutions are hypotonic to the solution in the potato cells.

Explanation:

According to osmosis, water will move from a region where it is high in concentration to that region where it is low in concentration. However, a region with high solute concentration contains a low water concentration and vice versa.

Hence, according to this question, water is said to move into potato strips from solutions of molar concentrations like 0.0M, 0.2M etc. Water moved into the potato strips because potato cells contained higher concentration of solutes than its external environment. This means that the external solutions are HYPERTONIC i.e. low in solute concentration to the solution in the potato strips.
