Darwin's finches are often used to illustrate evolution. Evaluate the finch beaks shown in the picture. Choose ALL of the statem

ents that correctly explain the evolution of finch beaks.
A) As the environment changed, the finches grew longer beaks to allow them to get food out of fruits.

B) Finches with longer beaks settled on the same island with smaller beaked birds. Over time, they bred, producing medium beaked birds that became more common in the population.

C) There are finches with different types of beaks in the population. During a drought, those with shorter beaks are not able to find sufficient food and die, leaving them unable to reproduce and pass the trait on to offspring.

D) A random mutation introduced the shorter, thicker beak into the population. However, those with thinner, longer beaks were better able to get nectar from the island's flowers. Those birds with the shorter, thicker beaks were unable to get enough food to survive.

E) A disease swept through the island killing many of the insects that were common on the island, leaving the birds who ate insects from the ground starving. The finches that had thicker beaks and could get food from tree bark were able to continue to survive and reproduce, increasing this trait in the population.

Heat lamps are designed to reheat food when it falls below 135 f true or false
iren2701 [21]

The given statement is false, as the heat lamps are not created to reheat food when food falls under 135 degrees.  

A heat lamp refers to an incandescent light bulb, which is utilized for the primary objective of producing heat. The heat lamps are not considered for holding the probable venturous foods hot at a minimum of 135 degrees Fahrenheit. In order to heat up a probable venturous food for decent holding, the food should be cooked over swiftly to a least internal temperature of 165 degrees.
