Question

A study of Galapagos finches after a long period of drought found that all species of finch on one of the islands had wide beaks well adapted to breaking open seeds. The type of evolution that leads to this phenotype distribution is _______ selection

Answer 1

Answer:

The type of evolution that leads to this phenotype distribution is known as directional selection.

Explanation:

• The process of evolution is a long and gradual process that emerges to exhibit various internal processes like that of the selection of direction, as it plays an important role in the development of organs in a specific manner.
• When a particular species undergoes evolution to withstand the changes that have occurred naturally, the species is also subject to get distributed away from its place of origin.
