Answer 1

The true statement about the Large Ground Finch and the Woodpecker Finch is: Their beaks are adapted to different food sources, so their niches generally do not compete.

They are different species, but this isn't enough for them to avoid competition, they don't compete because their niches are different enough, as their peaks have been adapted to different food sources.

The correct answer is option D.
