Which of the expressions below cannot be rewritten using the associative property? a. 12 * (17 * 1) b. 13 + 2 + 7 c. (15 + 4) + 10 d. (3 / 6) * 10

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.
