9. A finch population has genetic diversity. Some of the finches have an allele that gives them
longer beaks. Due to pollution, the ecosystem changes and seeds become harder to find. The
finches with long beaks can dig the seeds out more easily than the finches with short beaks.
a) Which type of bird is selected for in the polluted ecosystem?
b) How will the allele frequency change in the finch population?
c) is this an example of natural selection explain

Respuesta :

A) the finch with the longer beak
B) the allele will continue to become more prominent as the smaller beak birds die off
C) Yes, the birds with the longer beaks will continue to live on because the birds with the smaller beaks can’t find the seeds as easily.
