B) There is too much competition in Maine. C) The temperature in Maine is too high. D) temperature in Maine is too low. 5) In the Galapagos, the medium ground finch, Geospiza fortis, and large ground finch, Geospiza magnirostris, both live on the island Daphne Major. Scientists have studied these species and recorded detailed information, which includes observations about their diets and beak sizes. After a long period of drought, there were very few seeds available for both species to eat, and many of the finches died. The scientists who studied these birds observed that the average size of G. fortis beaks decreased dramatically during the years after the drought, whereas the average size of G. magnirostris beaks increased. G. fortis became specialized in eating very small seeds, whereas G. magnirostris…arrow_forwardWhat is the mode of nutrition of an organism named Santan? a.)Photo-autotrophic b.)Chemo-autotrophic c.)Saprophytic d.)Parasitic e.)Herbivore f.)Carnivore g.)Omnivorearrow_forwardInvasive species fishzilla Where did it originally come from?arrow_forward
