Question

hummingbirds use their beaks to reach into flowers and eat the nectar inside. which hummingbirds below are most likely to survive in an environment with long, slender flowers? (1 point) hummingbirds with long, slender beaks all hummingbirds will survive because there is plenty of food for the whole population hummingbirds with the brightest colored feathers hummingbirds with short, wide beaks

Explanation:

This question relates to the concept of natural selection and adaptation. In an environment with long, slender flowers, hummingbirds need a beak shape that can reach the nectar inside those flowers. A long, slender beak would be better suited to access nectar in long, slender flowers compared to short, wide beaks (which can't reach as well) or bright - colored feathers (which don't affect the ability to get nectar from such flowers). Also, the idea that all hummingbirds will survive is incorrect as different beak shapes have different efficiencies in accessing the food source.

Answer:

A. hummingbirds with long, slender beaks
