a new species of finch with long beaks is introduced to an island with a limited food supply. the long beaks allow the finches to gather food more easily compared to the native finches. what will be the most likely outcome in 30 years?

a

both finch populations will increase.

b

both finch populations will decrease.

c

the native-finch population will increase and the long-beak finch population will decrease.

d

the native-finch population will decrease and the long-beak finch population will increase.

The answer is D.

Explanation:

This is because of natural selection. When a new species that has an advantage over the native species and has to compete with the native species, it is whichever species is better adapted. Because the question states that the non-native species has an advantage the native down't, we can assume the non-native species will out compete the native.

Hope this helps:)

explanation:

stimulus is a change in the environment that causes an organism to react. the response is the reaction to the stimulus. some examples of stimuli for zebras are drought, to many predators, and bad feeding grounds such as dead grass or plants. zebras respond to stimuli just like all other living organisms
