Record the total number of chromosomes in the individual.

Explanation:

The organism with the highest chromosome number recorded in to date is estimated to be 1,440 (or 720 pairs) found in the adder's tongue fern Ophioglossum reticulatum. Original text presents information as: "to date is 2n = ca. 1440 found in..." Ca refers to circa, 2n means the ‘diploid number’- Diploid means having 2 sets of chromosomes. (This is true of most cells - reproductive cells have one set, and some plants have more than 2 sets).

the two answers are a, the population of birds with large beaks will increase on the island, and c, the trait for large beaks will be passed on to future generations through natural selection. the reason for that is because if the birds that have beaks developed for eating small seeds lose all of their food, they will go hungry and eventually starve because they physically cannot eat the large seeds, therefore making the population of large beaked birds higher. also, if the trait of large beaks are dominant on the island over small beaks, then over time the large beaked birds will reproduce more and more, while the smaller beaked birds will reproduce less and less because they can't survive with the food provided. that leads to the trait of small beaks disappearing and the trait of large beaks taking over the island.
