7 0

The position of the eyes of a Macaw are as follows. Each eye is located on either side of the birds head. This is called Monocular vision, opposed to our eyes which are located in front of our head, adjacent to each other. Mono comes from the Greek root word meaning 'alone'. Making it understandable that, that type of vision is more limited. The operation of their eyes, view things differently in comparison to that of binocular vision (what we humans have). They have a more broad view but cannot judge distance or depth very well.
Hope this helps! If you have any other questions or would like further explanation just let me know! :)

Answer:

Phenotypic plasticity

Explanation:

Humans have evolved over thousands of years to adapt to various environmental changes. For example, when we are in an environment that requires certain level of adaptation our off spring often formalizes epigenetic traits that lows them to overcome small changes in the environment. Over time certain genes that are turned on may remain on and eventually the ones that are off remains off. This give rise to some genes that "don't work" after millions of years of such evolution we end up with a complex genome with more DNA than "working genes".
