The 14 different species of finches in the galapagos islands originated from a single ancestral species. what is it about these

Daniel [21]

These islands have different ecologies and most are not connected to each other by landmass. Therefore, the organism adapt to each of the different ecologies on their islands. These populations were physically separated due to lack of connection to each other and would not breed randomly. They therefore formed different species by allopatric speciation.

Whats are the pros and cons of a endoskeleton?

Softa [21]

Well, an endoskeleton is an internal skeleton, like humans have. Pro: Bones do not get broke as easily, since they are inside of the body. Bones that break also heal more quickly in an endoskeleton, since they have tissue and blood surrounding it and transferring nutrients. Con: The flesh can get easily damaged. There is no shedding with endoskeletons, so a new skeleton cannot be grown in the event of an injury.
