A forest has many trees and bushes that produce nuts. This is a major food source for many species, including a particular bird. Birds of this species have a variety in beak shapes ranging from long and pointy to short and hard. The birds with short and hard beaks are able to eat the nuts better than the birds with long and pointy beaks. What do you expect to happen to this population of birds over time, in terms of what you know about evolution? Address all four principles of natural selection in your explanation.

There are four principles at work in evolution—variation, inheritance, selection and time. These are considered the components of the evolutionary mechanism of natural selection. After a while the birds will get old and their beaks will get weaker, eventually they will die, when there is a shortage of food they will start harming each other in order for it, that’s selection.

clumped distribution, because you'de have all of the population gathered in a relatively small are.

it's the most common because it provides protection and a mate for reproduction

example: humans, seeweed, cattles, etc.
