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.
Answer:
I think the third one......
The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:
- Simple squamous
- Simple columnar
- Pseudostratified squamous
- Stratified squamous
- Stratified columnar
Answer:
Stratified columnar
Explanation:
Epithelial tissue is the tissue formed by the cells which form a layer of cell and lines the lumen of the organ and also covers the organs. The epithelial tissue can be classified based on the number of layer and shape of the cell.
In the given question, the shape of the cell is slender and are tall therefore are called columnar. The cells form more than one layer or multiple layers therefore form stratified layers.
Therefore, the epithelial tissue formed by these slender shaped multiple layers is known as the stratified columnar layer. The stratified columnar is present in the respiratory tract and the digestive tract.
Thus, Stratified columnar is the correct answer.
