Answer: In adaptive radiation, many different species evolve from a single ancestor species. Each new species evolves to exploit a different niche, such as food source. In the example above, Hawaiian honeycreepers evolved a range of bill forms in response to available food sources on the Hawaiian archipelago. The honeycreepers dispersed from one founder species, and evolved in response to natural selection based on different food sources in their isolated habitats provided by water. Seed-eating birds evolved thick, short beaks.

natulia [17]

Answer:

A punnet square can be described as a diagram which is made to check the outcomes of a cross.

To check the probability of the offsprings of a cross between homozygous dominant thumb shape parent with a homozygous recessive thumb shape parent, let's draw a punnet square:  

        t              t

T    Tt            Tt

T    Tt            Tt

The results of the punnet square depict that:

Genotype: All of the offsprings will be heterozygous for the thumb shape trait. Tt will be the genotype.

Phenotype: All of the offsprings will show the thumb shape like the thumb shape of the dominant parent.
