From where and to here do finches migrate?
mostly all finches migrate to Florida and Mexico except gold finches
What did Darwin observed in the finch populations that supported his idea of natural selection?
Darwin observed that on the island, there were many finches, but each one of them were slightly different.Darwin noticed that beak shapes and sizes differed among the finches. This led him to believe that finches evolved differently in response to different environments.The variation in beak size and body size that showed, at a latter date, that all of these birds he thought were vastly different species (wrens, warblers and such ) were one ancestral finch species adapted to many different niches on the many different Islands of the Galapagos.
What did Darwin wonder about the different finch he observed in his travels?
Darwin wondered if the finches on the Galapagos Islands were an ancester to the mainland finches. It turns out they were, one finch went to the island and its decsandants spead across the island. Geographic isolation caused the gene pools to become isolated and each population adapted to a particular habitat on the Galapagos Islands. Over time all the populations became genotypically different that they do not interbreed. Mating finches look for the beak shape.
What did Darwin notice about the animals on the Galapagos island?
Darwin knew that the birds are the same. since they lived in separate islands, the finches adapted to their environment and had a mutation. all of the birds have a common ancestry. each finch has a separate beak because they needed to get food in a way. if the beak is thin and small, they can take their food from cracks or small areas. each bird had adapted to their environment with their beaks. that's what Darwin noticed. each animal adapts or adjust to their environment around them. see it, remember it, and know it. important concept of evolution
What did Darwin hypothesized that the different finches on the Galapagos islands all had a what?
a common ancestor
What is the relationship between the galapagos finches beak shape and their environment?
the beaks adapted to what they ate. all the different beaks have different jobs
What is the relationship between the galapagos finches' beak shapes and their environment?
the beaks adapted to what they ate. all the different beaks have different jobs
What observations did Charles Darwin make about the finches in the galapagos islands?
he saw that in the different places and things the finches ate made their beak a different size and shape to adapt to their surroundings
What is the shape of the chicken beak?
Finches have many different types of beak shapes. Their beak shape depends on what they eat. Some finches have some long thing beaks while other have short stubby beaks, it all depends on what they eat. Sources: Charles Darwin!
Where are the nostrils?
The kakapo's nostrils are at the top of its beak, the same as all other birds except the kiwi (which has its nostrils at the end of its beak).

How do Darwin's finches exemplify speciation?
Darwin was puzzled about the many adaptations of the finches on the Galapagos Islands

How were Darwin's finches different?
The Darwin finches were the finches of which Darwin studied and analysed so that he could notice the natural selection process. He stuided finches on different islands, all with different beaks. This showed that by natural selection these finches had adapted and evolved into their own environments.
What observations were made about the finches on the Galapagos island?
Firstly, they aren't true finches. They were collected by Darwin on his second voyage. The main observations are there beak shapes and sizes. Depending on their location in the islands, the finch's diets vary and then because of their varying diets they have varying beaks which have adapted to their food sources. The variances in the finches and their beaks despite all living in the same island chain spurred Darwin's theory of evolution. Since Darwin's time there have been many expeditions to the Galapagos Islands and new discoveries have been made such as the Large Cactus Finch males have two different beak types. Those with the shorter beaks have one distinct song and those with longer beaks have a different distinct song. They both feed on the same type of cacti, but in different ways due to their beak types. It's thought it's so the birds can all still feed when the food is scarce.
Do all have a beak or a bill?
yes all birds have a beak or a bill
