The answer is A
He grouped organisms that shared obvious physical traits, such as number of legs or shape of leaves.
First, it is necessary that this scientist decide on what point of the Cretaceous period he wants to study. Among several points he may want to study the evolution of microorganisms of that time, the life of a dinosaur species, or the evolution of dinosaurs, the flora that was established during this period, among others. This is the phase of the scientific method called Observation.
After that, he must enter the phase called "Elaboration of hypotheses" where he will raise questions about the point he decided to study. "How many flower species existed in that period?", "How many of these flowers can we observe today?" among others.
After that, he will enter the phase called "Experimentation", where he will establish a type of experiment and all the experimental factors and variables that will allow the hypotheses to be answered.
After the experiment he will collect the data that will be analyzed and that will give results that will answer the hypotheses previously established. This is the phase called "Analysis of the results".
At that moment, he will be able to reach the last phase of the scientific method, the phase called "conclusion", where he will show the conclusions that the experiment allowed to be established.
The method used above involves the determination and comparison of the genes of the three species of finches. So, the answer is
<span>(3) Obtain molecular evidence from all three species and identify similarities.
</span><span>The genetic makeup of the three species will show different similarities that can be used to relate the evolution of the different species.</span>
Answer:
A. Salamanders
Explanation:
Specialists species are species that can thrive in a unique and limited range of resources. They require a specific environmental condition to reproduce and survive in environment and also have limited or few diets they need for nutrition. These limiting characteristics put them at a disadvantage of being endangered and threatened.
Salamanders are endangered species that are fast going into extinction. They require wetland (freshwater pools) for reproduction to be possible, and feed mainly on insects. This makes them specialist species.
Ospreys, snapping turtles, and beavers are all generalist species. They can all thrive in a wide range of environmental conditions, and also have varieties of diets they can get nutrition from to survive.
