20. Frigatebirds have webbed feet and spend much

of their life flying over the ocean but never land in
the water. What does this fact suggest about the

Answer:

Evolution changes the abilities of the Frigate birds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Frigate birds have webbed feet because they live in the ocean and unable to fly due to its big weight. Before the evolution, the Frigate birds lives in the ocean due to their large body weight but with the passage of time, evolution occurs that leads to formation of flying ability in the bird so now the bird have the old characteristics of their ancestor as well as new abilities in the physical traits of the Frigate birds due to the evolution.
