Explanation:
The variation in beak type enables the different individuals in a population to feed on different food sources.
The shape of the beak is key to determining the primary food source of the bird. Certain birds species have specialized beaks, but within populations of those species, there is a variation in beak shape.
This gives the population the ability to respond to changes in the environment and availability of different food sources.
For example, if because of a dry period there is a shortage of fruit, some individuals in the population have the beaks that enable them to feed on other things, survive and leave offspring.
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
The life of a plant alternates between haploid and diploid generations. From a fully matured diploid plant (2n) which is known as sporophytic generation a lot of spores which are haploid are produced by the process of meiosis. By the process of mitosis, these spores then develop into new multi-cellular plant which is also haploid just like spores (n), this phase of plant life cycle is known as gametophytic phase. This haploid plant is capable of producing gametes (n) which are also haploid. When two such gametes from the same or different plant fuse with each other a diploid cell is produced which is known as zygote (2n). This zygote subsequently divides and grows into a diploid plant which is a part of sporophytic generation. This is how the entire life cycle of various plants alternate between gametophytic and sporophytic phase.
This diploid plant then later again produces spores and the cycle of reproduction goes on in the same manner as described above.
