True (although question is not clear enough)

Explanation:

Adaptive radiation occurs when organisms evolve from the same ancestor. This process takes place as a result of environmental changes or when they are introduced to or colonize a new environment. These changes become challenges that force these individuals to adapt to these new conditions.

Therefore, this results into a faster evolution that creates different new forms that possess a diversity of variations adapted to their new feeding habits, environment, and behavioral needs.

One of the most famous examples of adaptive radiation is the formation of new forms of Galapagos finches. These striking finches, which arose from a common ancestor, evolved different beak sizes and shapes that were especially adapted to different types of food. As different as they may appear, they are closely related!

Answer from: Quest

the reason the two sea urchins don't compete with each other for food, resources, etc. is because the urchins have adapted to the environment but they have also adapted to each other. this is most likely because the genes of the sea urchins.

1. true.2. true.3. true.4. false.5. true.the concept of darwin's theory of evolution involves the idea that there are limited resources in a given living environment and that the organisms which live within have variations in their genetic make up due to random mating. the ones with beneficial genetic variations can express certain traits which give them an upper hand in surviving and reproducing in the said environment compared to ones who may have a more disadvantageous variation in traits. over time, the organisms with an upper hand will survive and reproduce more frequently and pass on their beneficial genes while the others die. the result is evolution, where we observe (usually, but not always) eventually, phenotypic distinct changes.

The gene that causes sickle-cell disease is present in a higher percentage of residents of sub-saharan africa than among those of african descent living in the united states. even though this gene causes sickle-cell disease, it also provides some protection from malaria, a serious disease that is widespread in sub-saharan africa but absent in the united states. discuss an evolutionary process that could account for the different percentages of the sickle-cell gene among residents of the two regions.

What is the difference between the conducting zone and the respiratory zone of the respiratory system? the conducting zone is a series of cavities and tubes that move air to the respiratory zone where gases exchange with the bloodstream. the conducting zone exchanges gases between the lungs and the alveoli and the respiratory zone is a series of cavities and tubes that move air to the conducting zone. the conducting zone moves oxygen into the cells and the respiratory zone takes carbon dioxide away from the cells. the conducting zone moves oxygen into the bloodstream and the respiratory zone takes carbon dioxide away from the bloodstream.
