Identify each equation as linear function, quadratic, or neither? The equations:
Y=3x-15
Y=3(x-15)^2 its a power of 2
F(x)=2.56-(x-4.78)^2power of 2
F(x)=4(x-7)+9
F(x)=17(x-7)^3+9 power of 3
F(x)=13x^2-16x+14

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.
