Adaptation
Adaption is the biological process by nature of fitting an organism to its environment.
The finches on the different islands share the same ancestral population that migrated to the Galapagos Islands. However, due to the different environmental conditions on the different islands, the population adapted variably to enable them survive on their respective islands.
Explanation:
Adaptation occurs by natural selection pressures on a population. The individuals with desired traits are more likely to reach maturity and pass down their genes the next generation (due to competition for resources). Therefore, over generation, there will be more and more individuals with these desired traits and fewer and fewer with undesirable traits. The population, therefore, evolves with time. In the case of the Finches this is called divergent evolution/radiation.

When sugars polymerize in long chains, they may form any of the following except PROTEIN.
Answer:
The scientist is studying oxygen which can also be found in protien. oxygen is the element which makes up to 65% of human body mass. It is also found in proteins inside the body.
Genotype frequency: RR is dominant, Rr is heterozygous and rr is recessive.
R^2+2Rr+r^2 = 1
R = 0.85
R^2= 0.85*0.85 = 0.7225
