HELPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!

James is researching the advantages of varying beak sizes of four bird species in a local habitat. He records and graphs the data to show how many individuals there are in each species with different sizes of beak. The graph is provided. If all four species of birds are transported to a new habitat with completely new food sources, which species will most likely be able to avoid extinction?

Answer:

The birds with long pointed beaks.

Explain:

Birds beaks developed different tastes for fruits, seeds, or insects picked from the ground or cacti. Long, pointed beaks made some of them more fit for picking seeds out of cactus fruits.

Birds with larger, thicker beaks are better adapted to crush and open seeds and foods that are larger. So a bird with a small beak could not eat it.
