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.

adoni [48]

Answer:

D . Energy flows from the Sun or from rocks through the primary producers and the  successive levels of consumers.

This plant is then eaten by primary consumer known as herbivore. These primary consumer is eaten by secondary consumer is called carnivores.

Alenkinab [10]

The domain of the new species of unicellular microorganism in an undersea thermal vent that lacks a nucleus is Archeae.

<h3>What is domain?</h3>

Domain in biology refers to the highest rank in the classification of organisms, above kingdom.

The three domain of organisms are as follows:

  • Prokarya or Bacteria
  • Archaea
  • Eukarya

Members of Prokarya and Archaea do not possess a membrane-bound nucleus, however, the major difference between them is that members of domain Archaea are found in extreme habitats e.g. hot regions.

Therefore, the domain of the new species of unicellular microorganism in an undersea thermal vent that lacks a nucleus is Archeae.

Real Question:
telo118 [61]

Answer:

When you are hungry your brain signals your digestive system to prepare for food. This leads to stomach growling. Your brain does this because it knows that you are hungry, and consequently the brain signals the digestive muscles  to contract. There is also, usually, some gas in the intestines and stomach. The noises come out when the mixture of the gas and fluid, digestive juices, squirt through a opening that separates the stomach and small intestine.

Sometimes the noises happen because of an excessive amount of gas in the small intestine.
