After the drought of 1977, researchers hypothesized that on the Galápagos island Daphne Major, medium ground finches with large, deep beaks survived better than those with smaller beaks because they could more easily crack and eat the tough T. cistoides fruits. A tourist company sets up reliable feeding stations with a variety of bird seeds (different types and sizes) so that tourists can get a better look at the finches. Which of these events is now most likely to occur to finch beaks on this island?

Molecular models of two different substances are shown below. in the molecule on the left, the oxygen atom pulls on electrons more strongly than the hydrogen atoms. in the molecule on the right, the two oxygen atoms pull on the shared electrons with the same strength. water molecule, h,o oxygen molecule, oz when the two substances are put in the same container, they do not attract each other. why does this happen? a. they both contain oxygen. b. one is polar and one is nonpolar. c . they are both polar. d. they contain different elements.

How are proteins and nucleic acids related? they both provide energy. they both carry genetic information. the structure of proteins is determined by nucleic acids. the subunits of nucleic acids are also the subunits of proteins.
