Question

speciation prediction
predict what will happen as a result of being separated by a geographic divide.
to analyze the results of this geographic divide, lets follow each of the finch populations on both sides of the mountain range.
what do you predict will happen once a mountain range separates two populations of this bird?
the birds on both sides of the mountain will remain the same.
the birds on one side of the mountain will become extinct.
the birds will migrate from one side to another.
the birds will develop new traits to become adapted to their new environments.
the birds will develop the same new traits to adapt to their new environments.

Explanation:

Geographic isolation can lead to allopatric speciation. When a mountain range separates two bird populations, they are exposed to different environmental pressures. Over time, natural - selection will act on each population, causing them to develop new traits to adapt to their respective environments.

Answer:

The birds will develop new traits to become adapted to their new environments.
