What else can I help you with?
Can giraffes turn their necks?
Giraffes use their necks in the same way we use ours. They are just longer.
How do giraffes adapt to get food?
Longer necks.
What would need to happen so that giraffes with really long necks evolved?
I'm guessing that food was scarce near the bottom of trees, so giraffes with longer and longer necks generally outlived the giraffes with shorter ones.
If Lamark and Darwin had debated why giraffes have such long necks how would their explanations differed?
Lamarck would have said that the ancestors of modern-day giraffes had short necks but stretched their necks as they tried to reach leaves in trees; so, their descendants were born with longer necks. Darwin would have said that in a population of ancestral giraffes, some had slightly longer necks than others; the long-necked giraffes were better able to feed on tree leaves and as a result produced more offspring. Over time, the proportion of longnecked giraffes in the population increased.
Which animal has the same number of teeth as humans?
Both humans and giraffes have seven vertebrae in their necks. The ones giraffes have are just MUCH longer.
What is the neck of a giraffe called?
yes of course! because females have longer hair than the males.
Do giraffes have necks?
Yes, they do.
Why do giraffes evolved with long necks?
Giraffes evovled with long necks so they can reach the tree and eat the leaves.
Darwin and Lamarck had different ideas about why all giraffes now have long necks why?
Lamarck would have said that the ancestors of modern-day giraffes had short necks but stretched their necks as they tried to reach leaves in trees; so, their descendants were born with longer necks. Darwin would have said that in a population of ancestral giraffes, some had slightly longer necks than others; the long-necked giraffes were better able to feed on tree leaves and as a result produced more offspring. Over time, the proportion of longnecked giraffes in the population increased.
What example of evolution is in a long neck giraffe?
The long neck of giraffes is an example of evolution through natural selection. Giraffes with longer necks were able to reach higher leaves for food, giving them a survival advantage. Over time, due to this advantageous trait being passed down to offspring, giraffes with longer necks became more prevalent in the population.
Where do giraffes have long hair?
on their necks
Have giraffes always have long necks?
no
