Pedigree is the symbolic representation of the history of an individual's family connections, presenting their ascendants and descendants in an organized manner. This is an important instrument in the genealogical process, as it is a way of gathering data about the ancestors of the members who participated in a person's family building so that the connections between these individuals are established.
The family pedigre shown in the above question would be:
Hanna's mother and Hanna's father have three daughters of Hope's order, Holly and Hanna. Hanna and Harry have a son named John. John is married to Jane. His children are Lee and Leah (diagnosed with galactosemia
). Janes's mother is Hilda and the brother is Joe. Joe is married to Jen and his son is Les.
2nd choice is the correct one
Answer:
The correct answers are "The population of birds with large beaks will increase on the island" and "The trait for large beaks will be passed on to future generations through natural selection".
Explanation:
Natural selection functions under the premise of survival of the fittest, where stressful situations such as lack of resources will select the organisms with advantageous traits. In this case, the decrease on seeds affected particularly the numbers of small, soft seeds over large, hard seeds. This stressful situation will select the finches with the advantageous trait of having large beaks, because they are able to feed from large, hard seeds. This trait will be passed on to future generations through natural selection, which eventually will result in the population of birds with large beaks will increase on the island.
