13. A group of birds feed on two different types of algae. Thebirds that feed on the red algae have a more saturated colorationthat those feeding on the green algae. When these birdsreproduce, no matter their diet was, their offspring has dullcolors. Is this evolution? If yes, explain why and what process isoccurring. If no, explain why and indicate the name of thephenom occurring here

No, this is not an example of evolution. Instead, it is an example of a phenotypic change due to…
