Landslides cause property damage injury and death and adversely affect a variety of resources
Hi!
The ancestral finch founded a new population on one of the Hawaiian Islands. Due to the founder effect , allele frequencies of the first small population on one of the islands could have differed from their continental goldfinch-like ancestors. The process of natural selection resulted in adaptation and evolution of the island population into a new species over time. Some of the birds crossed to some of the other islands where they were geographically isolated and evolved into more species occupying different niches.
In terms of population genetics, founder effect is when there is a loss of genetic diversity as a result of the establishment of a new population by a relatively few individuals. Following such an establishment, natural selection is the process which results in the genes of the fittest individuals of the population being selected over generations. This process ultimately results in evolution, and over time may give rise to new species. Geographical isolation is the physical separation of a population from another owing to geographical changes in the terrain or area. If two populations of the same species are geographically isolated, there is a great chance over time they may evolve into two different species.
Hope this helps!

Answer:
A. spiral galaxies are not pinwheel-shaped
Explanation:
There are three types of galaxies that include spiral galaxy, elliptical galaxy and irregular galaxy.
Elliptical galaxies are round shaped as well as elongated. Elliptical galaxies have both old and new stars but mostly it contains old stars.
Spiral galaxies are pinwheel-shaped due to the regular spinning motion of dust, stars and gas around the galactic center, at speeds of hundreds of kilometers per second which allows the matter to take a pinwheel-shape. Spiral galaxies are made up of lot of gas and dust and forms many new stars which allows the spiral galaxy to shine bright.
Irregular galaxies do not have any definite shape because of the gravitational influence of close galaxies. They also have many new stars.
Hence, the error is foudn in first sentence, where it says that spiral galaxies are not pinwheel shaped. so teh correct option is A.
