3c: How could the total road
kills go down, as the nests
are going up? (Nests are
something scientists use to
estimate the size of adult
swallows surviving long
enough to reproduce.)
3d: What about the
environment contributes to a
change in the average wing
length in the cliff swallow
population over generations?
3e: What is the role of
natural selection in
explaining the change in
average wing length in the
population over generations?

Expert Solution
Step 1
  • Being in a more populous place required them to be more conscious of their surroundings.
  • Because there were more structures like bridges and crossings with vehicle traffic, it was more difficult for them to construct nests in secure locations.
