What are Darwin's finches a great example of?

Darwin's finches are a great example of adaptive radiation, where a common ancestor species diversifies into multiple species to exploit different ecological niches. This process of adaptive radiation is a key mechanism in evolutionary biology to explain the diversity of life forms.


What is the term for biodiversity that results from new ancestral species?

Adaptive radiation is the term for biodiversity that results from few ancestral species.


What is an adaptive zone?

The diversity seen in Darwin and finches is a good example of .?

The diversity seen in Darwin's finches is a good example of adaptive radiation, where a single ancestral species diversifies to fill multiple ecological niches. This phenomenon highlights the role of natural selection in driving evolutionary change and the importance of environmental pressures in shaping the evolution of species.


What is adaptive radiation and give an example?

Adaptive radiation is the diversification of a single ancestral species into multiple species that occupy different ecological niches. An example of this is the finches of the Galapagos Islands, which evolved into different species with various beak shapes to exploit different food sources, leading to their adaptation to different environments on the islands.


How do animals living in the Galápagos Islands help support the theory of evolution?

They are a classic example of adaptive radiation. Most of the animals on the Islands are from South America and came to the Islands, diversified into many species which inhabit different Islands in the chain. The finches and tortoises are the best example of this adaptive radiation; just evolution over time.
