1. green anoles, a lizard species native to Florida, live in the branches of trees.2. Brown anoles, a lizard species introduced into Florida in the 1950s live in the branches of the same trees3. green anoles and brown anoles have a similar diet.4. Both lizard species eat the hatchlings of the other lizard species.5. after many generations, green anolies were observed to have larger and stickier toe pads than earlier generations.6. within the same trees green anoles now occupy the higher branches.Which conclusion is best supported by scientists observations?A) adaptations of the green anoles allow it to cling to thinner branches than they previously could cling to.B. competition has resulted in the brown anole being adapted to live in taller trees than they previously lived in.C. competition has resulted in the green anole being adapted to consume food sources from a different type of tree.D. adaptations of the brown anole allow it to hunt for prey and branches in a different location of the tree than the green anole does.t to hunt for prey and branches in a differentlocation of the tree than the green anole does.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the problem, after many generations, green anoles were observed to have larger and stickier toe pads than earlier generations and within the same trees, green anoles now occupy the higher branches. Note that the thinnest branches are generally the highest on the tree. This means that adaptations of the green anoles allow them to cling to thinner branches than they previously could cling to.

we can conclude that the correct answer is:

Answer:

A) adaptations of the green anoles allow it to cling to thinner branches than they previously could cling to.
