Explanation:
Finches with large sized beaks can eat hard seeds and thus able to survive amidst severe drought conditions. They were more fit than small beaked finches.
As per the Darwin's theory - survival of the fittest. Large beaked finches survived.
Evolution of Darwin's finches brought inheritable changes in their beak size and form, that's why they were able to use different food resources during drought .

HELP ASAP!! Based on the video and what you know about natural selection, which of the following must be true if evolution is the explanation for what the Grants have observed over time on Daphne? Select all that apply. Beak depth and length must be heritable. Beak depth and length must affect survival and/or reproduction of birds.

Introduction The Island of Daphne Major, one of several islands that make up the archipelago of islands off the coast of Ecuador, supports a population of ground finches, Geospiza fortis. Finches are small songbirds with chunky beaks which they use to crack open seeds from various shrubs and trees on the island. These seeds make up most of the finch diet. Biologists have been studying this population for over 30 years. Each...

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
