Question

example of adaptive radiation in detail​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Adaptive radiation is the relatively fast evolution of many species from a single common ancestor. Adaptive radiation generally occurs when an organism enters a new area and different traits affect its survival. An example of adaptive radiation is the development of mammals after the extinction of dinosaurs.

Answer 2

Answer:

• Adaptive radiation is an evolutionary process that produces new species from a single, rapidly diversifying lineage.
• This process occurs due to natural selection.
• An example of adaptive radiation is Darwin finches, found in Galapagos Island.
• A large variety of finches is present in Galapagos Island that arose from a single species, which reached this land accidentally.
• As a result, many new species have evolved, diverged, and adapted to occupy new habitats.
• These finches have developed different eating habits and different types of beaks to suit their feeding habits.
• The insectivorous, blood suc*king, and other species of finches with varied dietary habits have evolved from a single seed eating finch ancestor.
