Question
Chapter 24.2, Problem 3EQ
Summary Introduction
To determine The analysis of the research performed by Podos, in support of the original hypothesis.
Introduction: Podos worked on Darwin's finches to evaluate the effect of the bird’s song on the mating patterns. He observed the effect of certain parameters on the reproductive physiology of the birds on the Galápagos Islands
Summary Introduction
To determine: The meaning of the phrase “by-product of adaptation” and its application in Podos’s study.
Introduction: The study performed by Podos on Darwin finches present in Galápagos islands concluded that the alterations in the beak morphology led to the change in the feeding habit as well as the song production required for mating.
