This is a complicated question that's a little easier if you break it down!
Island One:
- Lizard tails are all green or<em> </em>black tipped.
- This island has many of each type.
Sailors Moved:
- two green-tailed lizards
- three black-tipped lizards
On Island Two, we know that the black-tipped lizards are more likely to survive since the question tells us that "<em>the black-tipped lizards could use the black tip of their tail to distract predators while they made a quick escape and this particular island had many predators". </em>
The green tailed lizards do not have this advantage, and the predators are eating more of them because of this (especially if there are a lot of predators!).
We also know that the lizards on the island were able to reproduce and form a large popuation- not all of them were eaten by predators.
<u>Based on this information we can predict: </u>
There are going to be a lot more black tipped lizards (or they may <em>all</em> be black tipped lizards) because they have an advantage in surviving longer.
