Question

11 multiple choice 1 point the finches of the galápagos islands are an example of: coevolution allopatric speciation genetic drift artificial selection

Explanation:

• Coevolution: Occurs when two or more species influence each other's evolution. The Galápagos finches' case is not about two - way evolutionary influence between different species.
• Allopatric speciation: Happens when a population is divided by a physical barrier (like the separation of Galápagos Islands). Finches on different islands evolved separately due to geographical isolation.
• Genetic drift: Refers to random changes in allele frequencies in a population. The finches' evolution is more about adaptation to different island environments (related to speciation) rather than random genetic changes.
• Artificial selection: Is human - controlled breeding. The Galápagos finches' evolution was natural, not guided by humans.

Answer:

Allopatric speciation
