Answer:

To test the hardness of a specimen take it and try to scratch it with the first rock in your hardness kit, Talc. If it is scratched then the rock you're testing is hardness 1. If not then try to scratch the Talc with your rock. If the rock scratches the Talc then it is harder than the Talc.

~+ lil more info +~

nstead, common objects are used as tools to perform the hardness test:

fingernail (hardness = 2.5)

copper penny (hardness = 3)

glass plate or steel knife (hardness = 5.5)

steel file (hardness = 6.5)

Answer:

i dont know exactly what characteristic it would be

Explanation:

the variation of the beak shape was because the islands had diffrences to them. so on some of the islands the nuts would be bigger or smaller. The birds had to adapt to this so their beaks changed when you looked at the diffrent birds on the diffrent islands. The finches would have big beaks on one island because the nuts were bigger and they need food, but on another island the nuts were smaller so the finches on that island would have a smaller and more narrow beak. so bassiaclly the diffrences were because the birds adapted over time so they could use their beaks to properly eat.
