Answer:
The correct answer is option C. "Longer beaks allow the birds to better access seeds in bird feeders".
Explanation:
Since climate change makes more difficult for "<em>Parus major</em>" birds to feed from its primary source of food in gardens, the birds are adapting to access their second source of food, which is the bird feeder. Longer beaks allow the birds to better access seeds in bird feeders, therefore, the birds are developing longer beaks in order to adapt to their new conditions.
Answer:
The most appropriate answer would be D. The western skink population would be separated into two groups, and genetic diversity would decline in each group.
It can be explained with the help of a bottleneck effect due to which population size decreases suddenly due to events like a natural disaster, habitat destruction et cetera.
The construction of the multi-lane highway would have destroyed the natural habitat of western skinks and separate them into two populations.
The separation of a population along with the destruction of habitat would result in a severe decrease in the population size of western skinks.
Consequently, the genetic diversity would also decrease.
A mutation can allow a organism to adapt to the environment and example can be the case of the peppered moth which has two variations a white colored one and a black colored one. The white colored ones were able to survive better that the darker ones because of how they were able to camouflage with the lichen located in the trees. However, after a while smoke particles that were released by industries darkened the trunk of the trees making the white moths visible and allowing the darker colored ones to survive. Another example can be on how organism can be resistant to bacteria this allows the animal to survive and reproduce offspring with the same mutation. I hope this helps...
C. Chromosomes because they are need to have the cell funtion.
