Picture the morphology of an average soapberry bug from a rain tree population and compare it to the morphology of its new food source, balloon vine seeds. this average bug was taken from a population containing a range of sizes. are large, small or average bugs more likely to have relative fitness on the new food source?

From a study of soapberry bugs (jadera haematoloma), a similar theme emerges that reflects the process of natural selection that charles darwin observed in the galapagos finches. in order for soapberry bugs to feed, their "beak" length must match the depth of seeds in the balloon vine fruit. in central florida, the native balloon vine has become rare and the goldenrain tree, an introduced species from asia, has become the main food source for soapberry bugs. carroll and boyd (1992) compared beak lengths of soapberry bug populations that fed on the native balloon vine in southern florida with central florida populations that fed on the goldenrain tree, whose seeds are much closer to the fruit surface than the seeds of the plump balloon vine fruit. the researchers compared these data with the average beak length in museum specimens collected from the two areas before the goldenrain tree was introduced (indicated by the red arrows). what you can conclude from results of this study?

Darwin's study of feeding patterns in galapagos finches was one of the cornerstones of our understanding of adaptation and evolution. the results of that study don't apply just to finches however, but to birds of all shapes and sizes. why is beak morphology so important to birds? a. different species of birds can divide ecological spaces between them my matching the morphology to the food source. b. most birds are strict herbivores so they can each feed on different types of plants depending on food availability. c. the beak of most birds is integral to interspecies communication and differentiation d. much like hindlimb morphology, beaks vary to allow different locomotory lifestyles e. all of the above are correct
