You discover a number of species of snails that bright colored shells and bodies with black bands.

- Birds with average-sized wings survive storms better than those with longer wings or shorter wings. This illustrates _____. a directional selection b disruptive selection c the bottleneck effect d stabilizing selectionarrow_forwardEVOLUTION LINK Biologists have wondered how introduced species that would probably have limited genetic variation (due to the founder effect) survive and adapt so successfully that they become invasive. Part of the answer may be that invasive species are the result of multiple introductions instead of a single one. Explain how multiple introductions from a species native area to an introduced area could increase that species invasion success.arrow_forwardWhich type of species produces many offspring , each of which has a small chance of surviving to maturity? a) Specialist species b) Generalist species c) r - selected species d) K- selected speciesarrow_forward
- How does protecting the biodiversity of an area increases the survival of a species’ population? Use the principles of threats to biodiversity (e.g. overexploitation, habitat loss, invasive species, etc.), species dominance or evenness, and genetics of the species (e.g. inbreeding, mutations, founder effect bottlenecks, etc.). Use a Philippine endemic species as an example in your answer.arrow_forwardGive other concepts of evolution in biology aside from the concept of predation and explainarrow_forwardThese two meadowlarks are two separate species, the eastern meadowlark (Sturnella magna) and the western meadowlark (Sturnella neglecta).
