Explain adaptive radiation. Give examples in support of your answer:
In Adaptive radiation, the living organism diversifies from the single ancestor into several new forms. This occurs because of the changes in the environment. For example, Darwin’s Finches. Galapagos island’s finches have been seen having a variety of beaks evolved based on the type of food they feed on. They adapted to the nutritional and environmental conditions and thus developed various beak types over the years.
