question 5 of 10
how are finches in the galápagos islands a good example of adaptation?
a. finches teach each other new adaptations.
b. there is no competition for shelter on the islands.
c. the finches are not matched to their environment.
d. finches have developed many different adaptations.

Explanation:

Galápagos finches show adaptation through diverse beak shapes (e.g., for different food sources like seeds, insects). These adaptations are a result of natural selection over generations, not teaching (A is wrong). There is competition for resources (B is wrong). Finches are well - matched to their environment (C is wrong). So, D is correct as they have developed various adaptations.

Answer:

D. Finches have developed many different adaptations.
