A ladder leans against a building. The angle of elevation of the ladder is 70°. The top of the ladder is 25 ft from the ground.

To the nearest tenth of a foot, how far from the building is the base of the ladder?

the answer is; biodiversity resulting from few ancestors

adaptive radiation occurs when a population is subjected to a large natural environment with spatial ecological variations. the parts of the population in the different ecologies begin to adapt to their local environments. due to non-random mating across the large populations, this causes the different populations from the large population to speciate within their local environments. they, therefore, diverge to different species sharing a common ancestor.
