Question

Please help solve the paragraph.

shapes and sizes on different islands. The original bird [A] that colonized the islands was genetically [B]. This meant that, although birds in the original population were [C], individual birds had slightly different beaks. Food sources differed between islands. Birds with beaks that were better suited to obtaining food on a particular island had ID] survival and reproduction rates, and the number of birds with suboptimal beaks [E] relative to the number of birds with well-suited beaks. Over evolutionary time, the beak shape became fixed in each 1. population 2. diverse 3. similar 4. increased 5. decreased 6. habitat 3 6

Answer 1

A - population

B- diverse

C- similar

D- increased . Birds with beaks size better suited for obtaining food will have increased survival advantage

E - decreased. Birds with smaller beak size would not be able to consume every type of food available in the island and would have decreased survival

F - habitat
