During drought years on the Galapagos Islands, small, easily eaten seeds become rare leaving only large, hard-cased seeds that only birds with large beaks can eat. If a drought persists for several years, then what should one expect as a result of natural selection?
a. Small birds gaining larger beaks through trying to eat larger seeds.
b. Small birds undergoing mutations to produce larger beaks.
c. A higher death rate of birds with small beaks than that of birds with larger beaks.
d. Larger birds eating less so that smaller birds can survive.
e. Smaller birds storing up energy by eating large amounts of small seeds when rainy seasons come.

the abdomen (less formally called the belly, stomach, tummy or midriff) constitutes the part of the body between the thorax (chest) and pelvis, in humans and in other vertebrates. the region occupied by the abdomen is termed the abdominal cavity. the stomach secretes acid and enzymes that digest food. ridges of muscle tissue called rugae line the stomach. the stomach muscles contract periodically, churning food to enhance digestion. the pyloric sphincter is a muscular valve that opens to allow food to pass from the stomach to the small intestine.
