Awildlife biologist in minnesota has found that the moose population has been declining at an average rate of 10.4% each year. in the year 2016, the estimated moose population was 3455. if this trend continues, what is the expected moose population in 2026?

the answer is; biodiversity resulting from few ancestors

adaptive radiation occurs when a population is subjected to a large natural environment with spatial ecological variations. the parts of the population in the different ecologies begin to adapt to their local environments. due to non-random mating across the large populations, this causes the different populations from the large population to speciate within their local environments. they, therefore, diverge to different species sharing a common ancestor.
