The gardeners at middleton place gardens want to plant a total of 40 white and pink hydrangeas in one
flower bed. in another flower bed, they want to plant 102 hydrangeas. in this bed, they want 2 times the
number of white hydrangeas and 3 times the number of pink hydrangeas as in the first bed. use a system
of equations to find how many white and how many pink hydrangeas the gardeners should buy
altogether

the answer is; biodiversity resulting from few ancestors

adaptive radiation occurs when a population is subjected to a large natural environment with spatial ecological variations. the parts of the population in the different ecologies begin to adapt to their local environments. due to non-random mating across the large populations, this causes the different populations from the large population to speciate within their local environments. they, therefore, diverge to different species sharing a common ancestor.
