9. A finch population has genetic diversity. Some of the finches have an allele that gives them longer beaks. Due to pollution, the ecosystem changes and seeds become harder to find. The
finches with long beaks can dig the seeds out more easily than the finches with short beaks.
a) Which type of bird is selected for in the polluted ecosystem?
b) How will the allele frequency change in the finch population?
c) is this an example of natural selection explain

ecological efficiency: % of usable energy transferred as

biomass from one trophic level to the next typical is 10% efficient (90% of

energy is lost),is diagramed as the pyramid of energy flow. then osprey eagle

are tertiary consumer and the shrimp are primary consumer, so to balance

mass of shrimp (1/0.1) / 0.1 = 100 kg 

the earth is thought to have been formed about 4.6 billion years ago by collisions from a cloud of hydrogen, helium, rock, ice and other materials. these were pulled together by gravity to form objects in and around earth like- asteroids and small early planets called planetesimals.

so, the best possible answer to this question will be option d- to harden materials to form different parts of earth’s layers
